What is the main topic discussed in this episode?
This is the Sky Sports Premier League podcast. Thanks for joining us. We were at the London Stadium on Tuesday night to see West Ham play Nottingham Forest. This is how we saw things at full time.
A fabulous three points for Forest. An agonising zero points for the Irons and Nuno. it was areola's error really ultimately fouling morgan gibbs white that saw the forest captain able to step up to convert the spot kick after somerville authority given them a two nil lead earlier in the half only to see dominguez equalize for forest and set them on their way for the turnarounds the own goal from marillo in the first half seems a long time ago And for West Ham United, it seems a long, long way away as far as safety is concerned. Nottingham Forest have increased the gap from the bottom three to the bottom three, and maybe they can try and push on from here, but for West Ham United, a sorry state of affairs when it comes to where they are in the Premier League table.
A significant night it feels, and the final score of the London Stadium, West Ham United 1, Nottingham Forest 2.
What was the significance of Nottingham Forest's win over West Ham?
Well, it was a crucial win for Nottingham Forest in the end. And Michael, that means they opened the gap seven points clear now of the relegation zone. How big is that?
Oh, it was a huge second half performance. I mean, they rode the look, very fortunate with a couple of decisions that went their way. Fine moments in that second half that could have determined a completely different outcome. But you could see the relief from Sean Dyche, celebration from those Nottingham Forest players. and seven points clear as West Ham, as you've just said.
It feels like this is going to be a really big result for West Ham and not for the right reason, Bob.
No, 10 games without a win, more than a quarter of the season, really. You're wondering, where's the answer now? Looking at Nuno and saying, where's he going to go? Where are the club going to go with this? You can't see the games going on much longer than this. You can't see the club continuing much longer than this with the results like this. They need 30 points at least. to stay up, to have any chance of staying up, they're not going to get close at this rate.
What do you think they're going to do?
I can't see him staying. I can't see it now. I can't see how you can go this long without winning a game. Tonight wasn't the worst performance by a long shot. It wasn't the worst. And they still didn't get a result. It's heartbreaking. But I don't see another answer to this.
Do you think, Michael, they're going to feel hard done by this result, West Ham, or did Nottingham Forest deserve it?
How did VAR influence the outcome of the match?
I think you look at the second half, I wouldn't say Nottingham Forest deserves it, they got the job done, and it can be fine margins, you see that goal from Somerville, I mean, you talk about luck, when it went in I went, oh, game over, and then all of a sudden VAR comes in, it was the right outcome, right decision that came to it, which we'll talk about it, and it sort of lifted Nottingham Forest, it gave them some belief, they were fortunate with the goal, I mean, poor defending from West Ham at 1-1, But then you think, here we go. There was only one team that I believe had the momentum and were going to get on and win the game, and it was Nottingham Forest.
West Ham are going to be looking back at that disallowed goal, aren't they? And thinking that could have changed the game.
Yeah, that and the penalty, the nuances of the law, the wording of the law is so frustrating to see it happening. Technically, they're right decisions, but you're looking at them saying, how? What does football expect at times? What are you expecting the goalkeeper to do? What are you expecting the striker to do? They're the technicalities and the wordings, and it's just so frustrating at such a difficult time. When things are going wrong for you. Yeah. Fine moments in the game. The chance to make it 2-0, it would have been completely different, the outcome, if that goal had stood, in my opinion, but it didn't.
