    Roberts has been fantastic for us,Yidiom looks a Championship player,Hammell can win you a game with the blink of an eye,Bree is one of the best young talents in the country,Winnall has and always will score goals,Scowen will run through a brick wall for the cause and Hourahaine with out doubt one of the best midfielders in the Championship.All in my opinion of course.

    Well said.

    This is a tough league, and the margins are fine.

    Get behind 'em.

    Earlier this season when we were riding high in the table, scoring a bagful of goals and playing some wonderful, free flowing football, I said I was going to enjoy the ride whilst it lasted. There's no doubt that these last couple of months have shown just how difficult this Division can be. However, the vast majority of fans are still behind Hecky and the players & fully appreciate we're not competing on a level playing field.
    We do have players who can compete at this level, Friday night's result doesn't suddenly alter that. I'm still enjoying watching these lads represent our club (even if there's been a downturn in results) and have every confidence they'll turn things round.
    Twelve months ago this weekend, we drew at home to Sheffield United and slumped to the bottom of Division 1. Our rise since has been simply astonishing. I've certainly no intention of getting on the backs of the players & staff who have been been instrumental in that turnaround in fortunes simply because we're now in a bit of a sticky patch.

    Thanks for flagging this up, totally agree. In fact, all our squad are good players. It's one of the best squads we've had for a few years now, certainly better than the one which went down (with the exception of COG who's the best striker we've had since Neil Shipperley of course).

    I believe the recent problems have been down to tactics, not player abilities. Apart from Friday night which was a complete afterbirth of a match.

    Haven't got a problem with any of that, don't know if Bree is one of the best young talents in the country but he's a very good prospect, don't know if Hourihane is one of the best in the Championship but he's a very good player, and I'm not sure if I'd describe Roberts as fantastic but he's played very well for the most part and looks like a Championship defender to me.

    In my opinion we look like a midtable championship side who had a bad result on Friday. I think we'll win a few of the upcoming games and cement our position in this league. Haven't a problem with our squad at all, I think we have some good players.

    I've seen every game this season, and there has been far more good than bad in my opinion.

    Yes, we have our shortcomings, but considering the disparity in this league, we're doing ok and I look forward to each coming game regardless of the outcome of the previous one.

    We've all seen some utter tripe at times watching the reds. This doesn't compare with it.

    Can't argue with any of that. Friday was just one of those days when everything went Forest's way in front of goal and they got the benefit of some generous refereeing decisions.
