Albion v Forest pre-season friendly would be nice. (Murray/charity fund raiser - assuming he's still there?)

Muzza will still be there, I can't imagine Forest signed him on a permanent deal just for half a season. If they only wanted him until the end of this campaign then surely it would have been a loan arrangement.

I would imagine it depends on how he performs over the remaining months.

Well Chris obviously rates him highly, that's why they signed him in the first place, if he stays injury feee and his legs keep going, l see no reason at all why he shouldn't be.

They would have signed him with next season in mind too. In fact l think it's very doubtful that Glenn would havemade the move if it was only for a few months.

He signed a permanent deal to the end of the season.

It's not going too well now for the old boys.

A 1-0 defeat at home to Luton Town tonight. Murray just cannot seem to score. I really think he'll call it a day at the end of the season as he'll be pushing 40 and the Championship seems too fast paced for him. Will a board that are trigger happy keep faith with Chris? They need to pull away from the danger zone soon. But who is going to score the goals? Hughton is too loyal for his own good sometimes.

They’re 11 points above the relegation zone.

37 year old Muzza is no doubt at the end of a great career.

They seem to be doing alright to me. Tonight's result is disappointing but that apart that from the previous 16 they've picked up 27 points and only lost to Swansea and Boro. Tough run of fixtures coming up though.

Surely the project this season was to keep them up, bit like when he came to us.

The Forest forum feels very toxic on there. Chris deserves a chance into next season and they should stay up - although the bottom three all have two games in hand on Forest. They're averaging just under a goal a game though.

Will Muzza net a few once his drought's over or has age caught up with him? (as Forest fans seem to think). Knocky seems a favourite though.

They're at Watford, live on Sky, Saturday lunchtime next.
