Sheffield Utd may well be at risk of beating the record for the lowest points total ever.

Sheffield United's best moment of the game. Forest half clear a cross for Vini Souza, who takes a touch and curls a shot in from 25 yards. Saved by Matt Turner.
Nottingham Forest 1-0 Sheffield United
Morgan Gibbs-White swings this one out - it's from the right as opposed to all the previous corners on the left - and Willy Boly heads over.
Nottingham Forest 1-0 Sheffield United
Brennan Johnson wriggles onto his left foot on the edge of the box and has a shot deflected behind by Max Lowe. Corner.
The text at 20:11 BST was met by the delude of 'it's not Notts Forest' replies I expected.
It's not Notts Forest to be fair.
Nottingham Forest 1-0 Sheffield United
Sheffield United don't clear a free-kick and Willy Boly lofts in a cross, which is caught by Wes Foderingham.
Nottingham Forest 1-0 Sheffield United
Forest have now scored against all but one opponent they have faced in the Premier League - Charlton.
Sorry to Addicks fans but it might take a long time before Forest have the chance to remedy that.

Could be a very long and tough season ahead for the Blades if they continue to defend as badly as they did for that goal!

Neither of those were penalties, having seen the replays.
Nottingham Forest 1-0 Sheffield United
Morgan Gibbs-White finds Serge Aurier, who pings in a cross. It's behind goal king Taiwo Awoniyi and Neco Williams goes down. Another appeal. Another non-penalty.
Nottingham Forest 1-0 Sheffield United
Taiwo Awoniyi charges into the box and goes down. Penalty? He think so and so do the Forest fans but the officials and VAR team do not.

I thought that Forest would stay up last season. Sheffield United I have tipped to go down this season. But is this a statement now that Forest are here to stay for a while?
Joe
Nottingham Forest 1-0 Sheffield United
Forest have some good counter-attacking players, although this time Brennan Johnson can't find Taiwo Awoniyi with a through ball.

The Blades are proving that you cannot come up, sell your best players and not invest. And expect to do well!

Bit of a scramble in the Forest box but then the offside flag goes up so it's not worth even telling you what happened. A scramble, wouldn't have counted - that's all you need.
Nottingham Forest 1-0 Sheffield United
Taiwo Awoniyi's goal was Forest's 100th top-flight goal against Sheffield United and the first since Stuart Pearce scored a penalty goal in a 5-2 home defeat on 1 February 1992.
Nottingham Forest 1-0 Sheffield United
Morgan Gibbs-White swings a lovely corner in and Wes Foderingham punches away. I wonder if that was going in.
