Brentford 2 Nottingham Forest 0 | A worrying defeat?

Matt Davies is joined by Chris Aylmer and Paul Morley as we reflect on Nottingham Forest's trip to Brentford in the Premier League. It finished 2-0 in the capital as Nikola Milenkovic scored an own goal and then deflected in Igor Thiago's shot. Brentford created almost nothing else but Forest were toothless too, Ryan Yates heading over their best chance. #nffc #nottinghamforest 🙏 Do like and subscribe to our channel.

Ipswich 1 Nottingham Forest 1 | More points dropped, ref shambles

Nottingham Forest drew 1-1 Ipswich Town in the first game of the weekend in the Premier League. Neco Williams put Forest ahead as he finished an excellent Daniel Munoz cross. However a terrible error from Nikola Milenkovic led to an equaliser. Forest dominated the second half and were denied a chance to play against 10 men when referee Thomas Bramall decided not to send off Issa Diop for a foul on James McAtee which he somehow initially missed before a VAR intervention. Matt Davies is joined by Chris Aylmer and Simon Fotheringham to discuss the game in full. #nffc #nottinghamforest 🙏 Do like and subscribe to our channel.
