agree that automatic is out of reach, as much because we are just not consistent enough.

win tomorrow and the gap to 7th place is 8 points, which is definitely something to be excited about

Had a dream we drew 4-4 after being 3-1 down and 4-3 up

There are fine lines between dreams and nightmares....a bit like pain and pleasure I suppose

You need to keep off that cheese late at night mate

Yet another potential’banana skin’ for us to overcome, we need to do to Boro’ what Leeds did too Dull, impose ourselves and take the opportunities when they come along. On the other hand we do tend to be something of a charity case for teams in trouble, Boro’.at home springs to mind. Back to the positives Old Big ‘ead’s teams used to absolutely dominate Boro’ teams of the past, I think he only lost 1 of 42 games against them, let’s try and keep that kind of run going. Early goal and we shouldn’t look back, but the longer te game goes without us scoring the more nervy it will become. I am going for a Garibaldi 2-0 win.

Win tonight and Friday and we will be eleven clear of seventh. I think playoffs will be ours.

Good point Red....definitely an incentive to impose ourselves on both games and get the wins....but this IS Forest remember

Will they play for a point?

Silva missing for up to 4 weeks after op will be a big loss, especially if Sow is missing too. I suppose you will expect to lose players at this time of year, and midfield is arguably our strongest area, so as stated previously 2 wins or 4 points as a minimum from the next two matches f we are to put day light between us and 7th place.

Will we give Boro 3 points? or will we give them a lesson? In true forest style, I’m erring on forest being forest, and helping out the poor but it is away so you never know.

I’d be gutted if Silva is out. Terrier and a playmaker wrapped into one. I see where the appeal comes from with Carvalho but Silva is wired for champ football. Hopefully it’s just a top level bluff by monsieur Lamouchi

Forest (4-2-3-1): Samba; Cash, Figueiredo, Worrall, Ribeiro; Yates, Watson; Lolley, Semedo, Ameobi; Subs: Muric, Carvalho, Bostock, Diakhaby, Jenkinson, Dawson, Walker

——

Sow missing again, Silva also out.

Where's Grabban - You've missed him, only ten beforre the subs!!!!

Good old NEP 😁

Bad news is Gestede starts for the Boro’ always plays well against us, I take it Judas is injured, again.

Silva missing is a huge blow. He’s arguably been our best player this season. Semedo is not really an alternative so we don’t have a playmaker and we’re missing Sow. I would have been tempted to start Carvalho just so we have some creativity.

Good start by forest,

We could do with getting something while we’re on top. Boro’s got a shopping receipt of poor form stats and we just love ending those type of runs

Silva and Sow being out is a big blow; but it is also a big opportunity for those who have been waiting for their chance. I would love it if one of Yates, Semedo, and Bostock made it very difficult to pick those injured players when they are fit again.

It sounds like we are playing well and moving the ball around quickly

Home crowd getting restless

Boro are really poor.

YATES ME BEAUTIE

Ryan Yates he's one of our own.

C O Y R

YYYeeeessss!!!

Balvenie time!!!

Home crowd will really turn now.

Can we turn up the heat
