  1. Leicester would probably feel crushed to finish third so could be the ideal opponent. Getting into the play offs has to be the aim and frankly whoever the opponents are it's gonna be tough; the five above us continue to pick up points at an impressive rate. Maintaining a lead over hull & cov is the priority. The first two games in April are going to be key Given our form we can face anyone with confidence
  2. The summer questions are (assuming we remain in the chamos) 1 whether Gibsons left leg is worth repeating his current contracted wage (injuries if nothing else confirm not) or 2 will he accepted the significantly reduced offer. The latter is a harder choice for the club, I suspect its cheaper and prob more cost effective, to strengthen the dcm ranks and drop kenny back than it is to retain Gibson for <38 games or recruit a new starting left footed cb.
  3. Reyes is in the efl combined team of the week too, displacing ruddy
  4. Loans away working for the players not quitevready for the first team. Accrington & Portsmouth have benefitted all season and its encouraging that Bradford and Forest Green are seeing what Tomkinson and Reyes can do too.
  5. Thought lungi did have a good game; dealt with the aerial threat from strikers bigger than him well, read the ball well; covered both left and right side but was most impressive with his use of the ball, crisp certain without taking 5 touches. The caveat of course is that it was only Rotherham who looked a lot worse than their league position. But as with kenny it shows the importance of having good ball playing cbs.
  6. They are the team at the top of the form over the last 10, 20 & 30 games yet could still be 3rd by the time we kick off tomorrow. Its a mad season on every measure. But farke in the champs is a cheat code.
  7. Hopefully Mr Breakspear will preach forgiveness befor issuing a yellow, in line with his predecessor
  8. It is a most welcome boost for tomorrow's xi
  9. Fingers crossed he is free to play tomorrow. I see that clattenberg is employed by forest; do we retain or have a consultant ref who we can seek advice on before making such an appeal?
  10. Irrespective of who was captain (Grant) we should have had at least 4 leaders on the pitch. Sadly we looked as leaderless as last seasons run in. we are still in the running, but sat becomes a must win to stay in touch
  11. The accusation of last seasons dire run post blackburn was the loss of experienced players with kenny, Gibson & hanley our injured. Those players we absent as the towel was thrown in with no on pitch leadership or coordination from the very three who were on the pitch together with barnes. The experience should have been there but the nous was missing. Boro were miles off the pace and so out of form yet we made them look like an attacking Leicester or Ipswich side despite dominating the first 30 & being the team that should have been on a confidence high due to the current run. It's done and they need to show who they are all over again but even down to 10 its a missed opportunity and highlights an underlying fragility.
  12. Not expecting it to be overturned. And the 4 game ban could increase to 5 games at a time of no wingers. Time for sainz to reflect on his reactions; but was emi worth having without his his fiery side; it's who they are
  13. Was kenny, he must be relieved that the shot didn't follow them into the back of the net! Lino called in changed the corner to us from Pattersons save to their free kick.
  14. I thought he looked a little lost which isn't encouraging. If a player wants to leave and is uunhappy at the number of starts he is getting it never ends well so the loan was inevitable along with the impact on squad strength. Its also evident that, without a promotion, next seasons budget downsize will inevitably mean a significant reshape & downgrade of squad strength As for SvH it's under 60 mins pitch time and 1 assist. It's far too soon tosay and it is a case of we can only wait, see and support his endeavours
