Are we?
Middlesbrough weren't rock bottom.Middlesbrough are
Middlesbrough weren't rock bottom.
Who did they sign in Feb/March then ?Forest had far more resources.
Quite a few players including keinan Davies on loan, Sam Surrridge and Steve CookWho did they sign in Feb/March then ?
And generally better players. Which is why I think we’ll fall short.Forest had far more resources.
And we haven’t entered the playoffs
We’ll if you look we are in March.Quite a few players including keinan Davies on loan, Sam Surrridge and Steve Cook
Edit. See you said Feb/March not January but they still had more resources in their squad than we have.

We have some very winnable games apart from perhaps Blackburn and Boro away. If we had not had the pitch debacle and not lost Callum and Fadz plus now Allen and Palmer then Play offs for cert
Yeah, I mean existing playing staff and investment.And generally better players. Which is why I think we’ll fall short.
I mean being honest with owners who gave a toss we'd have made the top 6 last season and would have at least been in contention this season. Assuming we come short this time there's a lot to be optimistic about for 23/24.We were in with a shout last season with just four games to go and if I remember correct a mathematical miracle away with two just games left.
You are correct just a very small investment in the January just a couple of loans I’m certain we would have made the play-offs, it’s history now a bit looking to the future we at the very least have hope.I mean being honest with owners who gave a toss we'd have made the top 6 last season and would have at least been in contention this season.

Nobody but what is your point?Who did they sign in Feb/March then ?
They weren’t far off.Middlesbrough weren't rock bottom.
Just can’t see how you can say that. Every team has key players injured during a season which impacts on results. We’re no different to anybody else.We have some very winnable games apart from perhaps Blackburn and Boro away. If we had not had the pitch debacle and not lost Callum and Fadz plus now Allen and Palmer then Play offs for cert
In the 21/22 season when Forest were promoted they were bottom with 4 points after 8 games, we were bottom with 6 points this season after we had played 8 games.And we haven’t entered the playoffs
I can't say I'm too bothered with star tof season debacle. Yes we were bottom but we had so many games in hand I don't think any sane person panicked. Infact is was a stress reliever in a way to see how much we could jump up table if we won them all etc
I doubt it impacted player form too much.
If we don't make playoffs I won't be putting it down to pitch issues myself
75 points required last season for top 6
Depends how you look at it. Very rare a team with more than 73 doesn’t make it. 2 or 3 teams in 20 years75 points required last season for top 6
Eccles has meant sheaf hasn’t been missed. Well not as much alongside hamers performances impossibly improving from the high standard he’d already set.Even those two games Blackburn are very hot and cold and anything can happen last day when Boro’s fate may well have been decided. And we have beaten both this season…
Do think we’ll come up short, I think we need 2 points a game for the rest of the season to be in with a shout and just not sure we’ve got that in us. A lot will depend on when Sheaf Palmer and Allen are available.

Can we find in walker or maguire or howley running and goals to replace Allen and palmer???
If so keeper and back 3 are solid
Hamer and vik are the stars
Is the phenomenon better than our Covid promotion? 2 pts per game? We had a good pre-season, ruined by the pitch debacle. Then our form after the World Cup dipped.But we had some winnable games postponed that had we been able to play and win them, it would have improved morale and form going into other games which could have led to better results. Plus we were definitely undercooked and struggling with fitness levels compared to other teams.
But we'll never know I guess. Either way, it's been a phenomenal run of form since then.
