Well QPR have just given us a great present.
If we can win against bottom club Luton and our game in hand, it really is all to play for!
Damm, just woke up from my dream.

Thought we were awful in the 1st half, why Adoma played instead of Ameobi when we should go all out attack against the bottom club I have no idea (and I don't rate Ameobi that highly)!
2nd half much better and Lolley's second goal a stunner, let's hope he is back to his best.
On to the midweek game in hand, a win there and 2 points off automatics...the dream continues although we desperately need some quality in during this transfer window.
SL is doing wonders with the quality he has at his disposal.

Yes we certainly need to strengthen as other clubs almost certainly will.

Good supporting striker and some experience in midfield.

Get Tyler Walker back would be a start, this winger from Huddersfield would also add some pace going forward, we are too slow moving forward.
Thought LuaLua looked good🤔

Wow! Good old Stoke.
This season has just started to get really interesting, that game in hand on Wednesday has to deliver 3 points.
Some crazy results this season for sure.

Went for the first time on Sunday with my two 11 and 8 year old boys. Have to say living locally we should have got our arses in gear and gone sooner, really enjoyed not having to travel to a match in the car and fight the traffic. Caught the bus down to Bridgford, walked over Lady Bay and then on the way back had a chilled Pizza and bus back. Much better than fighting the crowds at Old Trafford or just failing to get a ticket of any type for Spurs.

Also youngest's teacher was in the away end supporting Luton, hah! Thought Forest played pretty well and certainly look good enough to stay in the play offs at least,similarly didn't think Luton looked that bad either.

I've no clue about the team but Lolley must be on a few Prem sides radars if he keeps playing like that.

Just unbelievable.
Sounds like the defence just froze as soon as we went ahead.
What a wasted opportunity.
Carvahlo seems a total waste big money!
Maybe we should give Cash a run as an attacking midfielder again with Jenks at RB.
At least Cash is aggressive going forward and would give a bit more bite in midfield.

Try and think of it as two points won, and not four dropped against a terrible Reading side...

Forest not playing great at the moment, but the results streak is pretty decent.

Big stretch to get into an automatic spot now.

The race for the automatic promotion places is still wide open IMO; going back a few weeks we (Leeds) and West Brom had a decent lead over the chasing pack but with both teams on a poor run that's pretty much disappeared. With three points for a win I reckon any team in the current top ten still has a realistic chance of getting automatic promotion......

The stretch is, we aren’t putting away the lower sides, so I am not confident of the bigger tests.

To be honest I slightly worry about what happens to this side in the Prem!

But due to the stupid golden parachute rules, if we went up we could afford to attract a better quality of player with EM's further investment without too much risk and still stay within FFP rules.
I would take promotion any day after sooo long in the wilderness.

Sure and me too, I just would have to live with a year of us being below the team my brother supports (Palace)

Not easy being, but I would be super happy for Forest to go up.
