Drazen Muzinic 1,445 Posted March 17, 2021 Tonight is one of those banana skin games for me. I think it stems from the spectre of Hughton's time here and watching us try and defend a point from the kick-off. One of my favourite recent chants was at Hughton-managed Brighton away in 2015 when we greeted the home fans with "You're only here for a nil nil" as we were storming away under Alex Neil at that time. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
keelansgrandad 6,679 Posted March 17, 2021 The posts thinking this could be one we lose is not really based on anything but anxiety. Our boys don't look like they have the same anxieties. I have never seen us as relaxed in games as we do now. Even going behind to the Owls didn't start any worrying and the outcome never looked in doubt. Of course we can lose but I don't think it will be tonight. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ken Hairy 3,772 Posted March 17, 2021 Comfortable 2-0 win, a goal either side of HT then foot off the gas, cruise home whilst one or two of the more bladder intolerant on here panic that we've not scored a 3rd 👍 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
......and Smith must score. 1,343 Posted March 17, 2021 All winning runs have to come to an end. Forest aren't all that but Hughton will try to suffocate the life out of us tonight. Hardest part might be staying awake. 1-1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Someone should really explain to him that 'concentrated' is more likely to apply to a liquid than a football team and he should really use 'focussed' (or 'compact' depending on what he means). Will be. I'll practically guarantee, as a native-standard German speaker, that he's thinking of the word "konzentriert". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
