The Reds lost on the night, but went through to the last 16 of the Europa League on aggregate, after last week's impressive 3-0 win in Turkey. Once again, a much-altered starting XI left Forest fans short-changed, as the tempo was slower, and the home team were caught on the break to give Fenerbahçe the advantage on the night.
Four (FOUR) half-time subs had barely warmed up before Jair Cunha conceded a slightly unfortunate penalty, but from then on Forest were much better, and Callum Hudson-Odoi's effort put them firmly in control - Omari Hutchinson and Igor Jesus will feel that they should have made it more comfortable. Baz and Tom report.

Despite a scintillating first-half display, Forest could not put the ball in the net, and were made to pay in the 97th minute when the second of two late VAR decisions went against them.
In truth, it's difficult to know where to start with the late calls. No-one (if any) in the ground expected the first one to be chalked off, but by the letter of the law it was correct. No-one from Forest was disputing the second one, although stills show that Hugo Ekitike was in an offside position, but deemed not to be interfering 🤷♂️
Rich and Baz try and untangle all of that, as well as discussing tactics, subs and confidence. The view from the opposition comes from Neil of The Anfield Wrap.

What a win in Vitor Pereira's first match - this was as close to flawless as you could imagine as Forest controlled the match from start to finish, and kept that valuable clean sheet. They even overcame two of their weaknesses, by scoring from a corner, and getting goals (rather than conceding them) either side of half-time.
Rich is joined on the line by a rather giddy George Edwards, just back in his hotel room in Istanbul after a long day, to review the goals, the atmosphere, the experience, and what this means for the rest of the Reds' season.

After a temporary closure last week, we return to YATESY'S ESPRESSO BAR to discuss various happenings at City Ground. This week, we are joined by Nottingham Forest supporter and global football observer Ray Mundo Futbol, to hear the views of someone who would rather not have sacked Dyche. We also hear Ray's views on this week's visit to Istanbul, and agree that we wouldn't trade the Big Guy for any other owner.

Welcome to 1865, and our FOOTBALL TERRORISTS show! This is our monthly(ish) game show which also offers a deep dive and reflection into the life of a supporter at Nottingham Forest.
In Part 1 of this show, we pre-Pereira for another new Head Coach at the City Ground, and think about player performance and how the Big Guy is actually one of the most enthusiastic Nottingham Forest supporters around.
We also have a game of 'Penny For Your Thoughts', in which Tom, Matt and the Maradona of the Midlands put themselves in the shoes of Sean Dyche, Edu, and Evangelos Marinakis (but in a nice way).
Presented by Rich Ferraro, and the Football Terrorists Sketch is written and presented by Jeremy Davies. Part 2 of the podcast is being released adjacent to this episode.

Recorded just hours after the news was confirmed, Rich, Baz and George sit down to discuss the appointment of Vitor Pereira as the new Head Coach of Nottingham Forest:
Where did it all go wrong for Dyche?
How accountable should Marinakis and Edu be?
What can we expect from the new gaffer?
Will Forest stay up?
We get insight from seasoned Premier League watcher Neil Atkinson from The Anfield Wrap about the comparisons between the Reds and Spurs; and Talking Wolves' supremo Dave Azzopardi tells us about Pereira's time at Molineux.

The match against Wolves was awful - don't let the stats fool you, as the visitors were actually more likely to score at the end of each half.
The game was overshadowed by the news, announced just after midnight, that Sean Dyche had been relieved of his duties as Head Coach, with Forest looking for a fourth incumbent in the managerial hotseat since September. Rich, Baz and Tom talk about the game and the consquences.

It was a bad night for the Reds but a very good one for Leeds United, as they took full advantage of a raucous home crowd and some tactical tweaks, as well as some good old-fashioned hard work. Lorenzo Lucca's goal on début was scant consolation, as Forest are now looking nervously over their shoulders again.
Rich is joined by Katie, after a cold wet night in the away section, and we are thankful to Ger from The Leeds United View for sharing an opinion from the home section.

Forest would have been hoping to get the win to draw level on points with our beleaguered visitors, and things started well when Morgan Gibbs-White tucked home after five minutes. As is so often the case, we should have got another one, and literally paid the penalty when Neco Williams handled on the line and was dismissed, with Ismaíla Sarr scoring the resulting spot kick.
However, in the second half, the ten man team showed no let up with a magnificent battling performance to repel Palace, and still managed to break with numbers, but both teams had to settle for a point in the end. Rich and Baz report on the game, the tactics, the substitutions, and yes, the referee.

After the worst game possible last week, Forest went some way to making up to the fans with a goal-fest and clean sheet against Hungarian opposition. Last week's chief antagonist (and there were many) became Forest's chief protagonist as the skipper made two first half goals, contributed to the penalty award at the death, and turned into prime Zidane for about 20 minutes.
The headlines went to Igor Jesus for his two goals, and James McAtee and Dan Ndoye had their best games in a red shirt, with the former richly deserving the goal that he scored when Morgan Gibbs-White gave him the opportunity from 12 yards. Rich and Baz report. Oh, what a night.

Welcome to YATESY'S ESPRESSO BAR, your weekly roundup of all things Forest from your friends at 1865. In the last week, our usually inspirational skipper caused a fair bit of consternation with his interview after the Braga match - was this delusional or the result of media training?
We hear from Matt Turpin with the latest on the Forest Women's team, in the week where Charlie Wellings scored a rather odd goal, and the Reds welcomed two new signings; and we discuss Nick Randall's latest Q&A and Jean-Philippe Mateta with guest pundit Steve Burns.

Two strikers, two goals scored, one clean sheet and three points for the Reds. After Thursday's awful game in Portugal, Forest have quietly managed seven points out of the last nine as things tighten up towards the foot of the Premier League.
After having no strikers in Braga, Forest had one score 12 minutes after the start, and another 12 minutes from the end, and what goals they were, with sub Awoniyi's particularly reminiscent of a Forest striker of yesteryear. Rich and Tom report.

After the Wrexham match, the loyal and long-suffering travelling Reds fans must have been thinking "at least it cannot get much worse than this'. Well, last night, Nottingham Forest missed a penalty, scored an own goal and got a red card, to LOSE TO A TEAM WHO DIDN'T HAVE A SHOT ON TARGET.
Baz speaks to George, who was drying off in his hotel room after Storm Ingrid battered the Estádio Municipal, to reflect on a night with no strikers, no urgency, more poor performances from fringe players, and a startling lack of self-awareness. Watch out listeners, this report contains swears.

As far as the headline writers were concerned, the big story was the penalty shout for Arsenal, for an apparent handball by Ola Aina. However, for Reds fans, there will be hope that Forest have rediscovered some of the grit and work ethic that was sorely missing for much of the preceding few weeks.
Baz is joined by guest pundit Steve Burns to talk about the action, and yes, discuss the penalty shout, contrasted with an opinion from a Gooner. We'll be back in the week with a roundup from Yatesy's Espresso Bar, and then a report following the game against Braga.
