I think he's a decent appointment for Forest. Considering the situation with their owner, I can't think of anyone better they could realistically have got.
Agreed. If we go up (and Fulham don't), I am hoping he might be on our shortlist, although he might still be out of our price range even in the Premier League.
Stockdale 7 - Arguably should be less as he had nothing to do but seems wrong to give a player a low mark for that. Great kicking but not one save to make
Bruno 8 - Very solid. Got forward well too and linked with Knockaert. Hope he will be okay to start next Saturday
Dunk 8.5 - Took the extra...
As with Rosenior, Kayal was fantastic last night and he and Stephens were back to their partnership of last season. Hopefully they will both be available for the last 9 games, as that will help us massively.
Agree with everything that's been said on this thread. He is a fantastic player and seems a great personality to have around the club.
What amazed me last night was that despite being out since August and then having to play three games in a week, there was no sign of tiredness during the game...
Agreed. If we can win tomorrow night, then the pressure is back on them. Two away games for them at Brentford (as you say, they are looking good) and Bristol City (maybe not doing well at the moment but still fighting for survival and held Newcastle recently) before we then face Leeds in the...
Well done for completely ignoring my point. As you missed it, my point clearly was that it is the least of our worries and not worth the usual over reaction by some on here.
Maybe. People who ask so openly are asking for trouble.
I have enough points to pretty much guarantee entry to any game. However, I can understand why someone who goes to all home and a lot of away games would be annoyed if someone with more points than them can't go to an away game and gives...
Nobody will force you to show ID as they have no legal right to demand it. However, if you don't, then you can't go in the ground. People show IDs at pubs and other venues all the time. It is a fact of life. Talk of erosion of civil liberties is massively excessive. We live in a society where...
As usual, much of this thread is an over reaction to something that will rarely happen. There might be spot checks at the odd high profile game but I am pretty sure they won't be very often as I imagine they are hoping the threat will be enough. It hardly warrants so much outrage at the club...
Seems like a sensible solution. One more defender in case we have more injuries/suspensions. Has the chance to impress now and potentially earn a longer deal.
Agreed. This is one of my biggest irritations as it seems to have been taken on by some Albion fans too (usually ones who moan all the time). In the three play off seasons, we finished the season very strongly and had great runs. We've had issues with injuries and Poyet in the actual play offs...
Think Wolves and Wigan will be left along but Norwich and Bristol City will be shown on TV. I think last season that Middlesbrough, Burnley and Albion were all on TV on bank holiday weekend. Fully expect that to be the case for us, Huddersfield and Newcastle this season (although no idea what...
Wednesday away. Never beaten them away before and without Stephens and Kayal, I'll be honest I didn't go there with much hope (especially after last season). The win there made me realise just what we'd added to the team this year, both in terms of new signings and more backbone.
Other...
I was hoping they'd move that to the week before Easter so Wolves would have to play it the midweek before playing us. Presumably that was blocked because we're playing Wolves on the Friday.
How many left backs do we need in the squad? Bong and Rosenior were both on their way back and Pocognoli was doing really well. Seriously it would have been ridiculous to bring in a specialist left back rather than a defender who can play across the back line, which is what Tomori is. What do...
I'm not defending him. He's never acknowledged when Baldock had a good game and, funnily enough, has disappeared now he's in great form. I agree it's pathetic.
He has been one of our best players this season (as shown by our form when he was out of the team).
In fairness to him, he wasn't the only one who criticised Baldock regularly. I've always thought he was under rated here. For example, Hughton had us improving when he arrived and our end of season bad run coincided with injury for Baldock. However, he didn't score enough goals for a striker...
Baldock seems to have his own goal of the season competition this season. Brilliant goals at home to Fulham, home to QPR, away to Barnsley and yesterday. What a season he is having.
Anyone still having doubts about Baldock, if anyone is left, should look at the second Barnsley goal where he ran...
Stockdale 7 - Did everything he needed to but it was so little it is hard to give him more
Bruno 8 - Absolutely perfect ball for Baldock's goal. Solid defensive performance too
Dunk 7.5 - Solid defensively although slightly out of position for the chance that Duffy blocked on the line
Duffy 8.5...
