    Seen some great games against forest over the years (anyone there for the wheelbarrow but the wheel fell off one?) including the 5-4 which was a ridiculous game. Didn’t we go 4-0 up only for them to get back to 4-4 and we then scored the winner. Also some great pubs in Nottingham (no, not...

    Sheaf and Hamer

    I thought he was MotM or close. Seems to be looking for the quick pass more (even if he has to go sideways / backwards) rather than searching for a forward pass that doesn’t appear in time. As others say, adjusting to the league and will be class.

    Mark Robins... One of coventrys greatest ever managers

    They had different objectives and obstacles which makes comparisons subjective in the extreme. But in response to the thread title, the table I posted demonstrates that regardless of whether keeping us in 1985 div 1 was a greater achievement than winning the checkatrade trophy, Robins is...

    Interestingly my Forest mate reckons they’ve been abysmal so far this season, with the possible exception of the last 10 minutes of their last game. They had 1 shot on target against Middlesbrough and according to him they’ve been ahead for a total of 15 minutes in the last 15 games or 22.5...

    Do agree that Hamer needs to go off. Kelly more than adequate replacement. Another ban would be a nightmare.

    Anyone that can’t see Hamer is a different class can get in the bin.

    We need to learn how to manipulate the decisions in the same way our opponents do. And I don’t agree with it either, but we are disadvantaged by other teams being better at it than us. We need every single thing we can do to improve our results.

    Dare I say we need another goal. Bit scared we’ll slowly drop back amd let them into the game. We need to keep at them.

    Yup, be interesting to see if they cave in should we get another.

    One of the main issues is that this also applies to the players.
