    Ivan Toney

    Back just 20 minutes and already cheating. Team mates distract the ref. while Toney moves the foam and the ball twice giving him a better position to score from a free kick. Cheating, gamesmanship or ingenuity?

    I had backed him to score AAT so I don’t care.but whatever he did was is open for debate.to me if you get away with it with it not being spotted or pulled up its fair game.forest was dozy in all aspects of it.surely the draught excluder is worthless,stick him on end of wall instead and it might have been different outcome.

    The Premiership has many 'haters' and for good reason over the financial aspects but as far as the football goes there have been some cracking games these past two weeks and the Brentford v Forest game is another one.

    I agree - it's unsavoury in many ways but some very good quality clashes

    He said yesterday that he was looking forward to making his comeback in Brentford's 3-2 win against Forest which I thought was a bit odd.

    What's the latest score by the way?

    Straight from the Barry Fry football manual for gamesmanship.

    Once a cheat….. but, where were the lazy VAR people in charge?

    Scrap VAR now and tell UEFA to do one.

    It’s incidents like this that makes a case for retrospective punishments for cheating.

    What do they call it?

    Bringing the game into disrepute?

    Hey kids, watch this, have a go, cheats prosper

    Grist my friend, we need to roll the game back 30 years and just let the man, now the woman, in the middle make the one and only decision. Back in the day many linesman showed the Ref they were also in charge on the sidelines and gave clear offsides unlike now in the modern day where money rules.
