Credit ...

Where credit is due

Leicester are just relentless at the moment. Grinding out win after win.

Not so long ago I thought we might catch them, but no chance now. 19 pts!!

If only we didnt draw so much...and keep throwing away points in the last 5 minutes.

They are a season or two ahead with us in terms of their building and we could do worse than take note over the summer and try to keep the majority of the squad together with minimal additions. Assuming we don't go up of course, which I am pretty much am

Thanks guys. I think what excites us most this season is that unlike Cardiff and Hull, we aren't so much grinding out wins, but are playing fast paced exciting attacking football. When conditions don't allow for this, or we play a team that parks the bus, we do have the ability to grind out a win which we didn't last year

I think it's a lesson in patience to fans and chairmen. Over the last couple of seasons we have played some teams off the park but lacked experience to bounce back from disappointments. After our dreadful run last season many of us wanted NP gone

That would have been a huge mistake. Nigel has added a bit of experience and installed self belief and that play off defeat to Watford has been key to helping the young players develop character, particularly knockeart who has been outstanding.

Forest are where we were last season IMO. There is huge potential and some very good performances but you will probably need this seasons experience to get a squad that gels perfectly for the next season. Assuming you don't go up this season, if no silly decisions are made, you are my faves for automatic next season

Yep 8 wins on the bounce is terrific by anyones standards and especially in the crazy Championship.
Still 18 games to go though.
As for Forest, they are in good form themselves and I think you could still push for 2nd place, but for this a win v Watford tomorrow is a must.
It sound daft, but QPR still dont convince me and are too reliant on Austins goals.
