    Fulham next week for me will be very similar as yesterday and will have to play very well to get a result.

    February does look very favourable regarding points but who will we actually beat?

    I can only really see us beating Burton at home and drawing Wednesday, Hull and Birmingham with us losing at QPR.

    Losing only once in those fixtures but only winning once as well. Is that acceptable with the teams we're facing?

    We are well in tbe brown slimy stuff. Without 4/5 key signings I’d say we are stuffed.

    It all depends on who we sign and if they gell in time,stay as we are and it's going to be a struggle to win many games.

    Absolutely not.

    We have to beat at least 2 from Burton, Birmingham and Hull. But none of our players, except the odd defender, are able to take the chances we create for them, so I wouldn't be surprised if we failed to win any of those games.

    We definitely need to strengthen. Need wingers, a holding midfielder and another striker.

    We need to be up to speed for Hull, Burton & Birmingham. Can't see us getting owt vs Fulham
    Maybe a point vs QPR.or Wednesday.

    Doubt we will sign 4/5 more players this window we have signed 2 already 7 in total? But I think yiadom will leave. 1st win I'm going for 3 games into next season in league one.

    Our problem is that we just don't score many goals so actually beating anyone is a tall order. When was our last goal scored by a forward? How many chances do we actually create? That's not because we are totally useless, but because we are being set up not to concede and just simply don't get forward in any numbers. These same players managed to find the net well enough earlier in the season, but they also shipped goals. Personally, I'd prefer to stick with that policy and give it a go. At least we will win some.

    It needs to be soon.

    With Mallan on set pieces we could easily nick a goal from there and hold out. I’d take a draw with Fulham next weekend but then we really do need to pick up points in Feb.

    Are we?

    We've beaten Burton who are bottom of the league, Birmingham who are second bottom, Sunderland twice who are third bottom, Millwall in 15th and Forest in 14th. And that's it. We haven't beaten anyone in the top half of the table.

    I think there are a lot of teams in this division we're not capable of beating and we go about proving that week in week out.

    It all depends on who we sign.

    There are promising signs. If we strengthen we'll be OK. Think we may need to be patient next couple of weeks.
