@danscapephoto Not entirely. They were all sus of Alexander.
Dropping from 3 to 2, I think was more paranoia than greed. At least from Frankie and Leanne.
English

Imagine if Charlotte recruited Jake or Leanne instead of Freddie and then they murdered the other one.
Final would have been Charlotte & Jake as traitors, no Leanne and against Frankie, Alex & Freddie who all had suspicions on them.
The final we should’ve had!

@danscapephoto (I mean, I get they've had days of paranoia and nobody trusts anyone...)
English

@danscapephoto They really needed to run a stats model once they'd voted Charlotte out.
3 traitors in a row out of 7 players.... If there was a 4th, they'd (as a group) have royally messed up as they'd have had the numbers to control the vote. Yet the Faithfuls were convinced there was another
English

@RobinsReds_ @AnalyticsForest I think only Jake and Leanne win.
Frankie and Charlotte take each other down and they'll both (J&L) still have a nagging doubt about Alexander.
Ultimately, in the end, everyone kinda becomes a Traitor.
English

@AnalyticsForest No you're right. Just bored my girlfriend to death talking about how Jake, Leanne and Alexander can confirm that the only traitor left is either Frankie or Charlotte.
Tbh even if they believe Frankie, they're incentivised to banish her for a bigger slice of the pie at the end
English

Probably obvious how this ends now. Frankie says Charlotte is a traitor, Charlotte says she’s lying because she must be a traitor. The 3 others have to vote them both off to be sure. Leanne, Jake and Alexander split it ftw. #TheTraitorsUK #TheTraitors

@wt_analysis I think Walker-Peters was due a second yellow when he pulled Neco back. Did feel slightly like Taylor lost control of the game a bit, was allowing some increasingly robust challenges to go.
Still not managed to find a reply of the elbow, couldn't tell from the Trent End.
English

As for the officiating in today's #NFFC game - from my viewpoint I honestly didn't see too much to complain about.
Taylor needs to be helped by VAR for the Downes foul on Gibbs-White in the corner as I would imagine he would have a hard time seeing that - and as for the disallowed goal, as soon as Wood makes any action toward the ball from his offside position I think the law states he is offside and interfering.
I'd much rather concentrate on how Forest react to things perhaps not going their way - it's something they've done pretty well this season after (perhaps understandably!) having some issues with that last season.
I didn't think 12 minutes was too crazy an injury time either to be honest - and perhaps we should be thankful that Taylor blew up 'on time'!
English

@Chris78901 @CallumCastel7 Elbow, goal, Walker-Peters pulling back Neco was a second yellow as well.
English

@SidJenkinson @danscapephoto @forestfocuspod @TalkingRedsPod Blows my mind. Seeing the ground that Anderson covers, plus the horrendous injury he had....the passion, dedication and longevity he's showing to deliver those numbers at that age is remarkable. Always seemed like a lovely bloke, too.
English

If you were looking for an all-round midfielder you'd be looking for a player that can tackle, intercept, create goals & chances.........
Elliot Anderson is ranked 4th across all domestic leagues with data coverage for midfielders with more than 10 games so far in 24/25

Privatise the BBC. If I want to watch it I’ll subscribe, as I do to channels that make programmes that I want to watch/ listen to. No one should be forced to pay £169.50 for a service they may never use, merely because they watch other things on a television.

Slot trying to butter us up..... not having it! @forestfocuspod at 11:30

We regret that due to the freezing conditions around The City Ground for today’s FA Cup tie against Luton Town, a number of supporters were unable to access the Upper Bridgford stand ahead of kick off.
Despite regular gritting ahead of kick off, persistent and stubborn icy conditions on the vomitories dictated that a small number of turnstiles providing access to the Upper Bridgford stand had to be closed in the interests of the safety of supporters.
Thankfully the vast majority of fans were inside the stadium within ten minutes of kick off, but the club wishes to apologise sincerely to those fans who were inconvenienced as a result of this issue.
The safety and security of our staff and supporters is our number one priority on matchdays.
English

@Birchy_Steve He has to stay on, there's something nice about him seeing in the new stadium, to me.
On the outside looking in, there's few others still in the game I associate with Everton more than Moyes.
English

@petermblackburn @DavidMarples If it acts like a good team, plays like a good team and gets results like a good team maybe it is a good team.
And yet, I'm still assuming 12th at best.
Just. Can't. Fathum.

@MaximoNewton Hold up... That shirt as a jumper is immense! Where and how do I get one?

@Exploding_Heads That's a top top top top top (not world class) link. But I do say that as someone who's never played the website game.
