Well are we going to start a bit of a run this week , Forest got off to a good start this season but have hit a bit of a shaky patch recently sitting 10 places above us in 9th but that's only a 7 point difference.
only 1 win away from home for Leeds this season (Bournemouth in Sept) lets hope Redders and Thommo can get the team performing

Ever the Optimist 1-2 scoreline and as I've said for the last few weeks Adryan to score with another from Antenucci .........

Over to You.................. Predictions, Scorers........................

Come Onnnnnnnnnnnnnn Leeeeeeeeeeeeeeds!!!
MOT

MERRY CHRISTMAS

With our squad I'd start 4-4-2 every game to be honest (or related setup 4-1-3-2 etc). But then again I would make a w4nk manager, amount of times I used to switch football manager off when on bad run to stop it saving

Fox could've had the Guns of Navarone behind him and he still wouldn't have had enough cover!

He may as well have his team talk in the away team's dressing room as he is more effective for them. What an amatuerish attempt at a tackle for the penalty. Wilson was screaming at him to tackle for ages before his brain engaged and he fluffed his lines. Also had a near on 90% pass completion rate to Leeds Utd players.

I am usually more than fair to our players but he has got my blood boiling this season. Totally goin through the motions. One of the worst Forest signings ever.

Agree Will, he's useless. He makes Harding seem quite good. Imagine if we had Cohen there all season.

I was at the match today and even though the game was closer than it should of been, but we should of won.

No matter how close a game is, you should score your chances, which is what we did. We scored three goals, of which 2 we're definitely clear while other say all three were. Likewise from where I was sitting the penalty looked like it was awarded for basically not being physical enough to compete and going to ground. Replays might say otherwise, but it feels like people expect us to score 4+ goals with thing going against us.

Hopefully things will be better against boro

Harding is much more positive going forward with the added bonus that he can actually pass the ball in the general direction of a Forest player. He isn't the greatest defensively either but I feel sure he wouldn't have been so easily suckered into that penaltu as Pox was.

You make your own luck. A competent defender wouldn't have been caught so flat footed and clueless as Pox.

Is it the pressure of knowing the club's greatest ever left back is in charge and watching your every move?
