Nottingham Forest v Aston Villa - Pre Match Thread

[Des Little]

Well of one thing I'm certain.  If they score first, we'll lose without scoring.  It's been the case every single away game this season.

No chance of winning ...its on Sky

4-0 mauling.

Bruce needs to learn his lessons. Get the midfield balance right and we'll be much better. The potential was shown in the first 10 mins and that's what we need to take on.

Only Hourihane got booked.

[frank black]

On the Telly again! It's like torture isn't it. I may have the night off ask the kids to water board me instead.

Reality is I will look forward to it, watch it and swear at the TV many times. Shake my head and go to bed trying to convince myself things can only get better.

[levico]

Nah.

Routine win for Forest.

[cheltenhamlion]

442 and a win for us. Just in case I am wrong though, I shall record the game and watch the rugby. Check the score and watch it if we won.

My kids poked their heads round the door last night took one look at the score and said goodnight and retreated to their bedrooms. I really try not to let it bother me but it does. What makes is worse is the glee in the voice of the commentators when we're losing - can't they get Jack Woodward in for the Villa games?

[Bottom Right 89]

did Lansbury get booked last night ?

He wasn't booked but i'd like to bet he is waiting until the Barnsley match to trigger his suspension in time for the match at Newcastle.

Judging by the way he took that blow to the head last night and carried on can't see him being scared of playing at SJP.

Been expecting a good response since the pathetic show at Norwich and it hasn't happened so can't see much changing this weekend. 1-0 to them.

They're a poor side Forest and they concede by the bucket load.

Get the balance right and capitalise on that early impetus we've shown in a few games of late and hopefully it will be our confidence that grows.

Player for player we're miles better, but Bruce needs to find the balance.

2-0 defeat. Lansbury sent off.
