    I suggest you look up the definition of arrogance.

    Maybe not but there’s this assumption that all players are on 10’s of thousands a week and they can’t be. Instead we followed the plan regardless of impact - the worst was the suggestion that Scowen wasn’t worth a Championship contract cos his development had plateaued and he’d likely as not not have any resale value

    Still, what’s done is done and we have to hope we can scrape over the line

    Matt mills did okay today to be fair to him. But when he came forest fans were glad to see the back I'd say his best days are past. But glad to have him.

    I don’t need to. Arrogance in assuming it could be done again to much a greater extent and without any continuity and without investment in the coaching staff

    Or stupid. Predictable. Overly optimistic.

    But just a few additions like that in August could have made difference

    We need to spend a bit more on Referees, they seem to be the biggest influence on our results these days.

    I don't care who is appointed, but they need to decide and stick to their best XI and tactics. 30 games and Fecky still didn't seem to know. Fielding a different XI every week was also Keith Hill's undoing, as I'm sure most can recall.

    Can't play Gardner and Williams in that midfield 2 especially at home, we've got to go for it now. I'd play 4-1-3-2. Williams to sit deep at all times, a 3 of Isgrove, Hammill and Mallan, Mcburnie with Moore upfront.

    I don't think defence is our problem if pinnock and Jackson hadn't got injured he wouldn't be here

    Only if they fit the definition.

    You tell me how they fit such a definition, in a BFC context, then i may agree.

    Can't argue with that. Got to go for it, although I'd like to see the Austrian lad have a go. Possibly from the bench.

    Yeah, we just don't know what he's going to be, Im guessing if he's not even made the bench this week he must look a way off in training.

    Paul heckingbottom went 451 the majority ever sciece Conor went. When he over saw us signing umpteen number 10s it was obvious he wanted to play 451 that' what has ****** us playing Bradshaw as a lone striker and hoofing the ball to him, playing moncur and mowatt as wingers, changing the line up every week, sticking with a low on confidence keeper who was costing us a goal a game.

    Was thinking how a experienced head in the middle might have helped us a lot this season.
