    Get a grip, this is a rebuilding season.

    You can't just throw a team of virtually new players and expect immediate results regardless of their value. This season is like other seasons since MR took over management where a rebuild was needed in the past. MR stressed this was a season of consolidation and it would take time. The only...

    Last one standing ?

    As an 81 years old and a supporter since 1952, does anyone else remember when we were relegated from the old Third Division South to the newly formed Division Four ( now Division 2).? Fortunately we were promoted the following season to the new Third Division ( now Division One)

    Ronnie Rees RIP

    So sad, one of my ever favourite players passed away aged 79. Ronnie was a wizard on the wing. He died in a care home and I kept in touch with him via his daughter.

    Consolidation

    I think next season will be one of consolidation rather than a push for promotion. Virtually a new team and squad to build a foundation for a promotion push 24/25 season. Mid table for me next season, but would to be to be proved wrong !

    How to spend 30 million pounds.

    Assuming we get around 30 million for Gus and Vic, it provides an opportunity to build a stronger, more balanced, team/squad for next season. As brilliant as this team were this season, the balance overall of aging players, loan players and some not quite up to Championship standard. I really do...

    Final Fixtures

    Can someone post a list of the fixtures for the teams with a chance of the play offs ? I would do it myself but this stupid 81 year old man fell and broke his hip last week and in hospital. PUSB

    Reminder to doomongers

    After 8 games last season Forest had just 1 point. Had won 0 ! Don't let your negativity drag everyone down.

    Away Table

    Sky Blues are 18th in the away table with all teams having played 3 away. There are 10 teams who have lost 2 away games . Considering the problems caused by the pitch and Simon Moore gifting the opposition 4 points at least and we are without O'Hare, far too early for all this negativity. We are...

    8 points off automatics with 3 home games in hand.

    I'll take that. This season it's wide open.

    Who is Grendel ?

    This person is obviously an experienced pundit with a wealth of football knowledge having spent many years in the professional game. Seems to disagree with the majority of those posting on this forum.... or is he just controversial on purpose to wind people up ? The word "ego" springs to mind.

    Missing the old stadiums

    Touch of nostalgia, thinking about the stadiums we used to visit... The Dell, Burnden Park, Ayresham Park, Victoria Ground, Roker Park, Fellows Park, Gary Meadow, Eastville, Goldstone, plus few more !

    Huddersfield

    Whilst without doubt the Rotherham game is important, I have been predicting that Huddersfield will be the real six pointer. Even if we loose at Rotherham, we will only be 2 points behind Huddersfield, with a similar goals against. Huddersfield's final 5 fixtures are far tougher than ours, so...

    5 out of 6

    Out of the next 6 games, 5 are at St Andrew's. I think we should be looking for at least 10 points from these fixtures.

    Sweet Caroline

    The team seem to be motivated by Neil Diamond's Sweet Caroline. They sang it after beating Ipswich last season and again after drawing at Norwich. Not saying dump the Sky Blue Song but maybe sing it when we win ? I know other teams have Sweet Caroline, but maybe we can sing it now and again ?

    Refreshing

    Refreshing to see so much realism on this forum, with the vast majority fully aware of the huge gap between League 1 and the Championship and the expectations for the season. Apart from the odd one or two who think the present team should be challenging for promotion, maybe blinded by our...

    Centre Halves scoring goals

    Anyone remember how George Curtis used to come thundering into the penalty box for corners, shoving all and sundry out of the way to get to the ball ? Fadz, scored a good goal, but not a patch on big George....
