Well, games are running out and this is definitely the business end of the season
Forest could more or less guarantee themselves a Playoff place with a win and if other results go our way this weekend - itβs imperative that we donβt lose.
I think...I believe...I hope that manager has the team fully focused and I the right frame of mind for this one, because Preston can sniff a chance to still gatecrash the Playoffs, especially if they get a result against us
But this season has shown, that itβs these kind of games where Forest usually play their best, when the pressure is on, thereβs no better team in the League to fight and grind out a result
A draw wouldnβt be bad, a win would be fantastic, and the sooner we guarantee our place in the Playoffs, it will hopefully allow us to rest one or two of our players for them
Not sure whoβs going to be in or out for this one, but the key is that the starting 11 all need to perform, and cut out letting in stupid goals in the dying seconds of either the first half, and definitely the 2nd half
I have a sneaky feeling Forest can take this one
It all starts tonight with hopefully Fulham beating Cardiff
Hereβs hoping and believing

Rev, if we make the play offs, being no worse than level after the home, as I doubt we will finish 3rd or 4th, will give us a real chance. Somehow or other we need to convince the players that we are NOT at home on Wednesday.

I wonder if we can swap changing rooms

Irrespective of what happens on Wednesday, if we can’t get at least a point against Barnsley Away who are bottom and at home Against Stoke, then we really don’t deserve a Playoff place
As we stand right now, Playoffs are at least 90% certain
We could still lose all 3 games and probably still make the Playoffs

Another strong away performance
If we make the playoffs, I don’t think any team will fancy playing against us

Brentford look incredible at the moment!
Hoping they catch one of Leeds or WBA as I would rather face them than the Bees at the minute

Been thinking that myself for a while. This is a squad that have hit top form and are sweeping all before them away..gulp...

Swansea let in a 89th minutes his against Leeds
That’s seriously helps our cause

Yes one win away for securing our play off spot. If we just avoid defeat in our next game we can get ready for the plays off a few games to spare.

All too often a team pushing for auto's finishes third and can't recover from the disappointment of missing out. remember it happening to us a few times.

With full context, the point from Preston is a great point.
I don’t think most people clock that most of the teams we’ve played after the break have played us knowing they ‘need’ to win. We’re done a good job in those circumstances and containing them.
I can’t see Brentford taking their momentum into the play offs. Form means nothing anyways. I’m sure one year palace went on relegation form after Christmas, clung onto 6th on the last day and still got promoted.

Great point on Saturday. Whilst also resting Cashy and Lolley.
Be great to win on Wednesday, then rotate players for the last two.
