    For a fairly star studded line up that must be costing them a fair whack, Forest have been fucking shit.

    I'd have taken a point of these all day but I fear we'll be looking back on these games in May and wishing we weren't so conservative in the first half of games like this and Middlesboro.

    McFadzean's got a funny face. He looks like he's started to melt a bit and then been put straight in the fridge.

    If you asked me which of Colback or Sheaf has a 100 PL appearances, I'd pick out Sheaf.

    There's been at least 5 times where he he has driven forward and just stopped when he got to 25 yards out. (Goooooaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaalllllllllllllll) No cross, no taking on his man. Just checks his run and passes backwards.

    Rose limping about near the touchline. Doesn't look good.

    I think it's significant Godden has kept the armband. I expect he will drop back out when Hyma is available again.

    He's been poor on the ball but he's either having to win it himself or receiving it from a 25 yard pass. Never had the wingbacks up with him and has got very few options to pass to. Same problem when Allen and Shipley were in the box. The options when he gets the ball are too telegraphed. Need...

    Sheaf and Hamer too deep in that half. The starting position was 10 yards higher when they were in a 3 with Shipley last week. Big hole between them and the strikers as a result and it's sucking one of the strikers deep and we're virtually back to playing the ineffective box again. Giles...

    I think he's a very natural athlete and works hard but not a very natural footballer. If he was 170cm I bet he'd have never made it through youth ranks but size still gets you a long way in youth football even if it isn't the be all and end all it was 25 years ago. He'll close a keeper down...

    Biamou still has lots to offer

    I'd exchange Allen first, then we can get 3 million for Shipley in the summer on the back of his 10 goals.

    Sheaf and Hamer

    Can't wait to see Giles running at Grimmer. Lovely bloke but it's incredible that he's a Championship fullback.

    Biamou still has lots to offer

    I regret never having seen him play in our box formation, it would have suited him so much more than the increased defensive responsbilities he had at the base of midfield in our 4-2-3-1. It was never a natural position for him.

    I hope we play some Weezer over the tannoy when he finally appears for us.

    Grendel is glass half empty. He'd see a Pessometrist.

    Tyler Walker

    He didn't arrive until the end August, told us in his signing interview his fitness was off because he hadn't played for ages and just as he was getting minutes off the bench for us he got COVID. Robins has literally said last night that if he was fit he would have played instead of Biamou. In...

    So you do really rate him then. We were unbeaten with that formation before his injury and then didn't win in the formation after it and his absence from it caused MR to change the whole formation...... You don't change a formation at half time in a game because someone got injured 3 and a half...
