From the start of the season we have outplayed I would say the majority of teams we have come up against. Apart from Luton being the only game where we just didn’t turn up (and possibly Swansea) but honestly I can’t get my head around how many people at this stage of the season are saying how well we played and are happy with a draw.
I love good football and this season is the best football I have seen since maybe the days of the premiership. But when we dominate teams like what we have done today, I am so frustrated that we haven’t won. We need to start turning these performances from 1 point to 3. Performing well does not get you 3 points. If we played well against the likes of Bournemouth, Fulham or your West Brom’s where before the game your thinking we may not even get a point here and we get a point or nothing at all then I am over the moon. But against Huddersfield performing well gets you nowhere. If we perform well, we need to start winning games like this. I’m looking at this game after the 90 minutes thinking this 2 points dropped not a point gained.
just want to see what your guys opinions are really as today I don’t think I’ve never shouted as much as I have

Cant fault the performance. On another day they get an absolute tonking.

The away performances are looking solid now. Just need to pick up a win vs Stoke. And then this point looks good.

Do you not think though that sitting 7th a performance like that is what we expect? We’re 7th for a reason.
we need to be pushing on with these performances where we are only getting the point against the opposition

If we extend our form over the last 12 games to the end of the season we will finished around 16th - we are bound to get injuries so unless we spend in January we will not remain where we are

If we can beat Stoke on Saturday we will be back in the top 6 with what should be a slightly easier run of games.
Cardiff, Milwall, Luton, Derby, and Peterborough have got to be a more favourable run than Huddesfield, West Brom, Bournemouth, Birmingham, Sheff U.
As said we will need to consider what we need in the January window but I don't see any need to panic at the moment.

We played really well yesterday but overall we havent been playing particularly well over the last 10 games or so.

We desperately need a win.

Proper six pointer on Saturday. Lose and we could we’ll lose touch with the playoffs, win and we’re right in there.

Yes, can't really afford to lose that, even a draw would keep us in touch with 6th. Got to start winning again soon though.

Far too early for that yet. Didn't Forest have something like 4 or 5 points after the first 8-10 games? Only 3 points behind us now. Over 70 points still to play for.

I'm hoping that our really tough end to the season means we're up against Fulham, WBA and Bournemouth when they already know their fate and are on the beach/resting players. Similarly Blackburn will have sold Brereton, and a lot of other teams will also be unable to recruit due to finances. Think our points total will finish between high 60s and mid 70s

If we simply take our chances I back us to beat anyone but as we've seen it's a very big if. I would love for the opposition to be the ones chasing the game for a change

True. Just feel the longer we’re out the more the psychology kicks in.

Yes, correction. Derby is round 3 of the cup
