Would be nice to see the gap between top and bottom 10 widening……

Is it time for Forest to start wobble? I think so, some tough fixtures ahead.

Our match v Everton is HUGE for us on a number of levels:
Can we overcome the low block problem at home?
Can we beat a physical/thuggish team at home?
Can we take advantage of teams above and around us playing each other?
Can we win 3 EPL games in a row?

We've been here before..........

Anyone interested in my front-row WSU seat?


(Note to the club employee who reads my posts and passes them on: this is a joke built upon the premise that this is the kind of game we'll stuff up royally, so what's the point in me going. I am not actively suggesting I am willing to pass on my ticket to someone else in a manner that would lead to me receiving some kind of punishment/ban)

Poor selection from Sky this weekend, is anyone really going to get excited about Palace v Brentford?
B'muff v Forest should be good with both sides looking to win.
Feel for Ipswich, they've some tough games coming up.

Especially as Bournemouth/Forest would ideally be a draw to keep them both in sight.

My toffee supporting mate and I are in a battle of expectation management. I've pointed out we never win three league games in a row and I'm still traumatised by the 1-5 car crash, while he is absolutely insistent that they are complete turnip away from home.

Hope he's right.

Also, when do Palace play a "hard" match again? Every bloody week they seem to be playing middling to struggling sides. I keep expecting to find MK Dons or some nonsense like that parachuted in to give them another easy ride. Pah etc!

They have a challenging run in - between February 22 and May 3, eight of their 10 matches are against current top half sides. Other two are against Stains and Ipswich

Hurrah! Hopefully a bunch of opponents very far from the beach this season.

It's been so competitive so far that I reckon that won't be an issue, let's see though
