West Brom’s 2-2 draw with Nottingham Forest on the weekend wasn’t without controversy. The Baggies held the lead twice in the clash only to be pegged back twice in the final minute of each half, and it seems the Tricky Trees took exception to a lot of refereeing decisions.

After the dust had settled on the draw, though, West Brom’s official twitter account collected a few tweets from Forest’s account lamenting about the refereeing and posted the screenshots with the caption ‘Rent free’ and the Baggies lapped it up.
The home fans loved seeing their club take a swipe back at Forest, and whilst there were also many Forest fans fuming in the responses, the Baggies adored it and will be keen to see more tweets like that from their club as the battle for the automatic promotion spots in the Championship intensifies.
