Midlands Yellow 4,682 Posted March 17, 2021 Will cautious Chris go for the jugular or sit back and play it cagey. All will be revealed later tonight but I’m going for 3.1 Norwich. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Satriales 993 Posted March 17, 2021 Really want us to hit four or five past a team before the end of the season and win comfortably. Being top of the league is brilliant, but there have been way too many nerve-wracking games, not good for the stress levels. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cambridgeshire canary 7,797 Posted March 17, 2021 Depends on if the players are awake. If we play like we did in the second half of our last match should not face much trouble.. But if we play like the first half of our last match Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Branston Pickle 4,144 Posted March 17, 2021 Forest’s goals for and against are pretty low, so wouldn’t be surprised with a low scoring affair. A draw wouldn’t be the worst given last night’s results, but let’s go for 2-1 again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If we play like we did in the second half of our last match should not face much trouble.. But if we play like the first half of our last match This goes to show how we see games differently. I don't think we played that differently in the first and second halves on Sunday. The differences were mainly that Weds pressed more effectively in the first half and also they were fortunate to get a very early goal from a set piece and a deflection. In the second half their energy levels dropped as you'd expect, allowing us to create more effectively, which is not unusual this season. There's a reason why we're one of the teams who score most and concede the least in the last 15 minutes. I'm going for 2-0 to City. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dean Coneys boots 1,531 Posted March 17, 2021 A scrappy and boring 1-0 to Norwich. A match in which Chris H will refuse to open up even after conceding. In post match comments he will praise us for being a “really good team” and will seem chuffed to have lost. meanwhile Daniel will praise the ‘guys’ but suggest they need to ‘be more greedy’ 6 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Midlands Yellow 4,682 Posted March 17, 2021 Norwich are the first team since Newcastle to win 24 matches from 36. It’s been done before on 5 other occasions and no team has failed on being promoted after. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dylanisabaddog 6,131 Posted March 17, 2021 It's a Chris Hughton team. They'll win the toss and let us kick off so they don't have to commit a man too far forward. I'll go for 1-0 to us with Krul making his first save in the 85th minute 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wardogz 72 Posted March 17, 2021 I don't feel confident about this one, for some reason, 9 wins in a row just seems mental..., but it's hard to see us not scoring. 1-2 victory - a cagey affair. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
smooth 114 Posted March 17, 2021 This is the second game of a run of 3 big games before the international break. A few distractions with call ups etc and a very good win at Sheffield Wednesday will put us in a good place. Sheffield Wednesdays' game plan was executed very well in the first half and we struggled to be as smooth as we can. But we showed bottle and desire to get back in to the game coming back to win after conceding first. I mentioned earlier some teams fold quickly when they go behind and when they feel the team they are playing are going to score anytime, you can see it. So I would love us to get out at them. A draw is certainly not a bad result with a home game (hopefully with a win) to finish the 3 games. So I would like 4-6 points from these 2 games before the international break. But tonight I can see a win 2-0, hopefully keeping the performance levels high. It has been a highly demanding season and I hope we can keep it going by raising our game one more level for a final push. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Well b back 3,603 Posted March 17, 2021 Somewhere between 0:0 and 1:0 either way is my prediction, so will probably turn out to be 5:4 thriller. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TheGunnShow 7,371 Posted March 17, 2021 As for the predicted score, I think it'll be an absolute stodgy, dour battle if there are no early goals, but I think despite Hughton's tendencies it could be quite high-scoring if one goes in during the first 20. I suspect not though, so I think this is going to be one of those instantly forgettable 0-1 away wins that don't linger in the memory except for the impact on our dreams of being champions again.
