If we had somebody that could control the long balls from our keeper we would do even better. Brit did well tonight but cannot trap a ball to save his life.

Not sure of the reliability of that account, but I can't for the life of me see a bite in that clip.
If he's actually bitten him, that Ribeiro would have reacted.

 

[McBrid]

Can’t see a bite there

I hate people who criticise others who make an effort to do something useful for others

To be fair I didn't directly criticise anyone.

 

[S7DiscoDown]

He definitely leans in and in contact with his back. Just don't see a bite.

That's the absolute last thing we'd need as a minimum of 3 games and probably more if proved guilty. Then again Fletcher is a week or so away.

I think he’s he’s just resting his face hard against his back and probably muttered something as he knew he would get a reaction. Defiently don’t think there’s a bite

Woke up spring in my step today. Buzzing with that last night

Me too, apart from the typical Boro moment when we conceded a daft goal after we were so far the better team that is for me NW best team away performance since he's been manager

 

[Muttley]

Agreed can't believe that anyone thinks there is. Nonsense. I would suggest that Forest keep that clip away from the FA as Ribeiro's behaviour on it could get his ban increased IMO.

I had 2-1 Boro so you can imagine my delight when we let them have a consolation

 

[Spraggons Den]

What about Cafu trying to knee Brit in the thigh? (in that clip)

 

[r00fie1]

Been posted elsewhere, but it was worth the pain at that corner flag at the end!

Wow!
So that's the footage of the mythical bite - that's crazy if Forrest think that shows a bite by Britt.
Dare I say it's almost 'frivolous' if it's them that's putting the claim to the authorities!!

It’s just an angry grimace. Defo no bite

Some Trees choppa thinks about "time wasting" playing the ball towards corner flag.........

Wasting time near the corner flag should be banned. It’s just so boring. It’s so obvious it would be easy to give a free kick to the opposition to ensure some excitement til the end. And while I’m at home to controversial why not get rid of the archaic double handed throw in which often takes ages (eh Cyrus). A one arm over or under throw would bring a new dimension to the game.

Hughton feels there was 'provocation' in Yuri Ribeiro red card

Reds defender Yuri Ribeiro was sent off in Wednesday night's 2-1 defeat at home to Middlesbrough

I wonder if he will be as bored if the boot was on the other foot!?
