Not sure how I feel about automatic suspensions for red cards. Pope's hand ball was a red card all day, but it was a tiny mental slip, he initially tries to head the ball and then only after he's fallen on it his instincts kick in as he controls the ball with his hand.
Arsenal have a fairly friendly run of matches between now and the city clash at Etihad. If the win over villa gets them back on track then they should go into that game with a lead still. Should be a cracking fixture.

Chris Wood.
Good for him to leave Newcastle and get a goal
I was commenting specifically on scoring late to deny Man City the win and 3 pts.

I figured you were, but it's not always about the Arse

That was a strange game - City should have been 5 up and then they seemed to dip in intensity midway through the 2nd half, Cooper made some switcharounds of formation, Forest had their only decent attack of the game and scored from it.

I only watched the 2 min highlights on YT. Even though it was the official NF channel the highlights consisted of 1:50 of Man City shots, misses and saves by Navas. The only time Forest had possession in the highlights package was for the Wood goal.

That double miss by Haaland was comical and Laporte had a free header 3 yards out and managed to head it straight into the balls of Navas. Can now call it a 3 way battle for the title with all teams dropping points regularly.

Blackburn upset Leicester 2-1 away and will be joined in the QF draw by Brighton, Fulham (2 great goals against a Leeds team who definitely gave it a go and were unlucky not to score being profligate in front of goal) and Man City who are 3-0 up at Bristol
Likely winners tomorrow are Burnley, Spurs, Man Utd and Southampton although only Burnley are dead set certs.
The opponents being Fleetwood, Sheffield Utd, West Ham & Grimsby respectively.
a kind draw could see the season getting even better for the Cottagers....
We will get Citeh for sure

Man U score twice in injury time to beat the Hammers and Sheffield Utd hold on to put Spurs out 1-0

Want to see the two Manchester clubs draw each other and Fulham Brighton avoid each other - best chance to see a non Top 6 eventual winner

Draw is:
City v Burnley
United v Fulham
Brighton v Grimsby
Sheffield United v BlackburnSo we're guaranteed at least one non premier league team in the semis and could have as many as three.
Blackburn v Burnley final would be very pre-World War 1.
And come on Fulham, I'm really missing Ole's United - they are much too efficient under Ten Hag and scoring way too late goals in Fergie time.
Good win for the Arse tonight - they seem to have played through their mini-blip. Watched them against Leicester and it was the most dominant 1-0 win I've seen for a while. They press really well, pass through the team really well and have some outstanding attacking talent.

@KiwiPie How did you guys lose to Dagenham?? Point behind Hollywood having played a game more.....
It's been a bad week for us. Dodgy referee was the problem of course. We definitely will have to go to North Wales and come back with 3 points.

Gutted about last nights result against Arsenal. Happy for Arsenal and they showed their class to get up, but thought we deserved a point out of that game. We put in a much improved performance and will be needed for the remainder of the season.
Didn't help that Wolves and Southampton also picked up wins. Still hope to avoid the bottom three, but will need a lot of luck with remaining fixtures
