Been a tough season, but I think we have enough quality to get us over the line. Harry Wilson to sink Rotherham, 3-0 to us. Jobs a goodun.
Think we should pick a solid team but have enough quality to undo them, think Joz put in a good cameo vs Swansea so I'm gonna go....
..................Marshall...........................
Byrne.......Davies......MC............Fozzy
..................Bielik..................................
..............Watson.......Shinnie................
Joz................Gregory..................TL....
Gonna go with the fit Curtis Davies over the fit Mengi and Edmundson just for experience and organisational capacity at the back. Joz just gets the nod over Ibe who I know has been outstanding the last few games but I think if we can use him and Roberts as the trump cards from the bench, it'll be useful. Toss up between Shinnie and Baningime, as Baningime has been prolific for us when he's played but I'm leaning towards going with Shinnie to keep it tight. Gregory gives us more mobility and ability to rotate positions as well as stretching the game so he gets the nod for me ahead of CKR. The interplay and dropping deep, switching the play, triangles, diamonds and interlocking do-decagons that has become so synonymous with a Rooney side and proved too much for Swansea, I think is our best bet.
Really been playing some great stuff leading up to this fixture, signs of it all coming together at the right time.

Love Bielik. Just another of many of our young talented players whose careers have been ruined by injury.
Hope he is back on Saturday. Should be an interesting game between two clubs I view as top flight teams fighting to stay out of the third tier.

He's gonna be out for a long time D'Jeezus. N the last holding MF we had who had the same two injuries, was never the same player again.
Gregory and Davies too. Three solid players that we have to face a relegation battle without. I'm sure Sheff have similar sob stories. Just a 5hit season.

Briefly worried this relegation battle had caused you to lose the plot 2W, seeing that line up.
In reference to Thorne, in an interview that was both fascinating and cruel, GT explained one of the reasons he didn't get a look in in his final season was due to an arrangement with WBA. For every match he played WBA would be paid 15k. This was not disclosed to him until Lampard had taken over ( if I recall correctly. )
His move to Luton didn't work out as they had a consistent midfield and by then injuries / lack of games may well have ruined him. Thorne did say he was rushed back and the operation wasn't carried out properly.
I do fear for Bielik after his second ACL injury. Hope the same doesn't occur for him.
Our top quality DMs certainly have been cursed.

Don't think it was the relegation Desi...but it's definitely not helping my recovery.
Didn't know that re. Thorne.
Long Live Huddz. I'd have him starting on Saturday.

Hello Strett, fancy seeing you ? It's been a while.
Nice to see you I'm sure, but isn't there a Govt. contract you could be applying for ?

2W, you just condemned us to division 1. You know your predictions are always wrong.

Well considering the team I put out was make believe. I think I've done quite a good job of confusing the football gods. Like the bridge keeper at the bridge of death. My prediction will lead to the internal combustion of said footballing Gods. We will exist in an anarcho syndicalist community of footballing equity and no longer be repressed by God's, debts and smug Forest fans in love with an anti footballing brand of perpetual average.
