Crackers Corner Posted October 4, 2020 Report Share Posted October 4, 2020 Always taken paper ratings with a pinch of salt especially after Twentymans story on the radio the other day from his playing days that the same reporter used to mark him different scores depending on which paper he was writing for.

GrahamC Posted October 4, 2020 Report Share Posted October 4, 2020 Apart from the blindingly obvious, which is struggling to know how Bentley hasn’t got 10, Semenyo, 5? ******* hell, did the reporter even watch the game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tin Posted October 4, 2020 Report Share Posted October 4, 2020 Am I the only one who thinks those ratings are pretty fair? What they say is Bentley was MOTM, Weimann and Martin were our next best players. Freeman and Mighten were Forest’s best performers. Can’t argue with any of that, and far more accurate than those on the Post website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think you would need a clean sheet and an assist for a keeper to get a 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Polly Posted October 4, 2020 Report Share Posted October 4, 2020 "Amazingly had to make good saves when Forest woke up in the second half". What's so amazing about a keeper having to make some good saves when the other team wakes up? Or is the journalist just amazed that Forest actually managed to make some good shots?

The commentator’s pitiful attempt to pronounce his name which made him sound like he was African (he’s from Cyprus) aside, I thought he was excellent, loads of superb crosses into our box.

Along with Freeman & Mighten he was one of the few Forest players that impressed according to their forum. Even Mighten they said faded once we sussed him and marked him out of the game.

maxjak Posted October 4, 2020 Report Share Posted October 4, 2020 Well the Sunday Mirror ism't a newspaper........it's a comic. But I have read some outstanding pieces. features and in depth reporting in a couple of the better quality papers that always seem to come across with more impact on the printed page. I reckon some of the tabloid hacks just make up the player ratings and phone 'em in from the pub.........money for old rope. PS .
