Long was signed because Wagner wanted a back up keeper who is experienced at this level. Not unusual. A different manager might see things differently in the future. You pays your money, takes your choice. I'd happily see a younger keeper on the bench in the Championship.

Thanks very much. Perhaps I can just see the situation without prejudice or agenda. Just seems absolutely bonkers but there we are, all about opinions I guess. Would be interesting to know why the two semi finals were scheduled as they have been and not the sensible, obvious way round.

The people contributing to the thread must do I'd have thought.

Everyone is missing the point though. United and Coventry didn't play on Wednesday, City did. Play the City semi on the second day of the weekend. It really isn’t rocket science.

Whatever you think of him and Citeh he's bang on. Would have been absolute common sense for United to play yesterday and City today.

We were due a below par home performance at some point, no damage done though as things stand. Back on it v Swansea next week hopefully. Disagree that mid table teams have nothing to play for, some will have their futures to play for, bonuses, league position etc etc. Bristol City are a decent side and should be higher in the table really, but we can be better than that and will be come the Play Offs.

King's Lynn and that's about it. Although family members support Forest and Man City (through local links, not just random supporting) so I don't mind seeing them do well.

Don't get this not being happy with the manager. Presumably Leicester, Ipswich, Arsenal and Liverpool fans are all feeling the same about their managers then? Maintaining top of the table form across a whole season is bloody hard, it's little surprise that all bar Man City are struggling to do it.

Probably because he had half an hours rest on Tuesday.

The footballing Gods want that lot to go up don't they?

I can't believe that's the case for a moment. In terms of his own stock and his next job etc I don't think he'd not play what he believes is his strongest side and make the subs he believes are best for the team and the match in question. I think SvH hasn't featured because for whatever reason he is completely unsuitable for the way we play. And let's not make this a Webber v Knapper argument either.

No.

Buy the fact he's not even being brought on as a sub speaks volumes.

Somebody dropped a b ollock with the Idah/SvH situation. Simple as that really. However rest doesn't explain or excuse the missed chances last night. Game should have been won long before Sarge was withdrawn.
