New Ammies boss Karl Robinson was sent off 14 minutes into his Moor Lane appearance to set the tone for an action-packed afternoon.
The hosts had handed their new coach – appointed on Friday – a dream start through Matt Smith’s early opener.
But the controversial red card swung the tide, with Charlie McCann levelling.
The Forest Green turnaround was completed inside 70 minutes when Matty Stevens volleyed in a third goal in four games.
However, Salford were offered a late lifeline with a stoppage-time penalty, resulting in Ryan Inniss and Adrian Mariappa both being shown red.
Matty Lund converted from the spot to end the hosts’ fourmatch losing streak and cap off an eventful introduction to the Robinson era.
“I’m raging, angry, disappointed and all the above,” said Deeney, whose side were denied a first win since October.
“It’s the same story, but a different day. 2-1 up, comfortable and it’s just poor from us.
