No debate Huddersfield have been brilliant.
Because of how playing them would mean we lose Spence Middlesbrough are my team to avoid in the playoffs. But if judge purely on the team we face Huddersfield are the most dangerous
I think you'll go up auto.... Good luck 👏👏

Thanks mate, but to correct the record, we've taken 21 out of 24 in April, not 18 as I stated before...
Just watched the extended hi-lights, what a festival of goals, could have had 3 more in the first half.
I think we stand a odds on chance of beating muff on Tuesday, what a turn a round in form that would be!
Swansea manager apologises for second half collapse. Tbh they were very fortunate it still be in the game at half time, we had 3 clear chances in the first ten minutes. They immediately resorted to time wasting after equalising. They play some decent stuff, heavy on possession, but imo not sustainable for 90 minutes. The first half was mega frustrating, but the second half was far more clinical, Cooper’s message at half time was probably more of the same, but be more ruthless in front of goal. They had about 70% possession but mainly in their half, they had 3 shots on target to our seventeen. Cooper really has something special going with this group of players, and imo if we could somehow maintain the nucleus, we’d stroll this division next season, that of course fearing the worst. 9-2 aggregate win over the Swans is almost unbelievable, but really shows the direction we are moving in. It’s been literally decades since I’ve had this much faith in the structure we are seeing, on and off the field, long may it continue. One more thing about the Swans ‘brand’ of football, it’s strange to me to see the goalkeeper ahead of his centre half waiting to take possession of the ball, this happened numerous times in the first half.
Game 44 - April 30th 2022

Everybody knows that 2022 is the International Year of Glass [*1], but not everybody knows that Welsh is not a real language [*2]. It is a pseudo language, on a par with Klingon or Esperanto. There is no way that a real language would come up with the words 'rholyn toiled' for 'toilet roll'. It's just pretend stuff, isn't it?
In the first half of this match, it was clear that Abertawe had no intentions of playing real football. Their version of the game involved an enormous amount of keeping the ball as long as they could, falling over when they lost it, and spending as much time on the floor as the referee would allow. This pretend football was designed to frustrate Forest and their fans, and for a while it worked. Even Mister Samuel Surridge seemed a bit off his game.
The goal came courtesy of agent Christie, who was sent off for preventing a goal scoring opportunity, then not sent off because he hadn't prevented a goal after all. This should have signalled an opening of the floodgates, but the next development was an Abertawe goal from Obafemi, a goal so fortunate it could not be classed as a real goal at all, but rather a nod which, believe it or not, is the Welsh word for goal.
Anyway, it was 1-1 at half time, and the wet willy brigade were out in force with their "got a bad feeling about this" stuff and their "going to be one of those days" stuff and their "I've never seen Forest come good in the second half because I'm terminally stupid" stuff.
The way to beat Abertawe's pseudo football turned out to be (1) ignoring it, and (2) scoring 4 more goals in the second half. Mister Samuel Surridge scored three - his first senior hattrick ever. His first was one of those falling-back headers which cannot be scored by ordinary mortals. His second was a swept, top-corner finish of breathtaking beauty. His third was the result of neat control and the Abertawe goalkeeper standing a yard inside his own goal. By the time it was 4-1 the noise inside the City Ground had turned solid, like painfully loud concrete. When Mighten burst through for Forest's 5th the atmosphere was so potent it could have powered Nottinghamshire. Mighten went insane, and he wasn't the only one.
And now Forest go to Muffshire to play in the biggest Championship game of the season. So, when we're 1-0 down at half time, put a bet on us to win 6-1. You know it makes sense. Rydym yn ddiguro, as the Welsh might say. Or is it Klingon? Look it up.
*1 - This is true
*2 - This may not be true. Whatever.
