Yeah, that seems crazy odds for Newcastle. Can't wait til we smash them.

A Tyrone Mings header to win on Saturday would be lovely.

Forest  - Spurs A, Brentford H, Crystal Palace A, Leicester H, West Ham A, Chelsea H
Man City - Everton A, Villa H, Wolves H, Southampton A, Bournemouth H, Fulham A
Newcastle - Palace H, Villa A, Ipswich H, Brighton A, Chelsea H, Arsenal A, Everton H
Chelsea - Fulham A, Everton H, Liverpool H, Newcastle A, Man Utd H, Forest A

The games in bold are where I think they could drop points.

Aside from the games involving Soton, Leicester, Ipswich and Man U at home, I'd say there's a decent chance of dropped points in almost all of the remaining fixtures (including ours).

Bet against them then.

Or, put another way, do you want to bet against us them?

If I were into gambling I’d be back Newcastle and the Villa. 

Newcastle are 1/8 on to finish top 5, I'm not that sure about them. I'd say Villa offer better value at 16/5 to make the CL.

I think that's just down to Newcastle having four home games left, everyone else has three.

One thing I will say is that Man Utd were absolutely dreadful yesterday.  I think most teams in et league would've scored a few against them, so the Jaudies scoring 4 is not overly impressive.

It's a massive game next Saturday, for both clubs.

If anybody is feeling a sense of pity over Forest wobbling, I encourage you watch them play ‘football’.  That should address any such sentiment. 

If I were into gambling I’d be back Newcastle and the Villa. 

Ryan Yates alone should address such sentiment.

Yeah based on form and their position I think they’re nailed on.

You bloody know they’ll turn up against us on the last game of the season though.

Forest have been going pressure free pretty much all season, now at the business end they have 4 clubs breathing down their necks and regardless of what they say, not making the CL would be a massive disappointment after the first 30 games.

They were partly dreadful because Newcastle gave them no outlets. We sometimes don't press enough in the final third.

We need to go back to that game season before last when they tried to press us and we just chipped it over them to McGinn instead and murdered them.

It's mad that they've given us some drubbings yet that game was the most one-sided of the lot.
