After their thrashing at Bournemouth will they be massively up for it next week or is this the beginning of when they crash and burn?

I love the option “beginning of their bad patch” we seem to be balls deep in our 5th one at the moment
By balls deep you meant one game?

Bound to get the backlash next week, although they might be saying the same thing?

We’ve had 3 wins in a row, after 2 decent draws against Villa and Arsenal. Yesterday’s single poor performance hardly constitutes a bad run FFS. I’m as disappointed as anyone by the Everton game but let’s keep a sense of proportion here.

We do backlashes? When did we start doing them?

I’d love us to do a backlash, I just don’t think I’ve ever seen one. We’re just too, well, polite.

MOtD doesn't show the whole picture, but they looked there for the taking yesterday - Kluiviert had so much time and space to run at them for his ( superbly taken..) goal
If we can keep going forward, not backwards.. we've got a good chance at this.

I think his comment was a riff on the fact that yesterday’s debacle was only the fifth league game we’ve lost this season.

A sarcastic take on one defeat being defined as a ‘bad patch’.

Could be wrong, obvs.

We could frustrate them and force them to open up and make mistakes, IF we set up correctly and are patient. You can guarantee they will come out quick

Also, goals from outside the area, who knew!

I’m not keen on 12.30 ……3pm would be ok…..have I answered the question?
I think that’s in our favour. Forest have one of the best atmospheres in the premier league. Probably THE best. We all know though that a 12.30 kick off generally mutes this.
