Saturday's second half against Bournemouth was unacceptable. People might enjoy seeing endless repeats of Friends and Only Fools and Horses on TV, but there were no laughs at the City Ground - and if fans are subjected to repeats of that capitulation then the season is only heading one way.
But to what degree should one disastrous half define our judgements of a team which now has four points from six Premier League games? It is a team which should have seven points, or even nine after blowing a 2-0 led to losing 3-2 against Bournemouth. Forest should also rue that sloppy goal against Everton to draw. On the other hand, they could easily have drawn with West Ham or even lost the game.
There were some boos on the final whistle on Saturday as Forest players held their heads in their hands having thrown away three precious points. On social media afterwards, the reaction from some was expected.
