[JUAN PABLO]

having the bonus of manure and chavski dropping points , I really thought these lot would be up for it..

[steamer]

looking at the other scores we really are missing a trick
Get the fuck in there and start scoring fucking goals

[usav]

If ever there was a game we needed Pau playing in, it is this one.

I don't want to bandwagon, but Ollie has been crap.

BT struggling to find any highlights for HT

Dig out a dirty 1-0 or 2-0 and we won't care.

[Toronto Villa]

225 minutes without a home league goal. As we won every game at home for that stretch I could never imagine that stat as we lined up to play Everton, Brentford and Brighton.

This is a Brighton side with 1 win in 12 league games, and that was at home to relegated Burnley.

This is one of those Wake me up before you go,go matches.

Looking forward to seeing Abraham tonight. I think he'll score if he comes on.

With no service, I don't see how.

It's more than that, the end of the Forest game plus time added on in each half.

We seem scared of going forward in any number. Always looking for a sideways or backwards pass. Must get some enthusiasm into our game.

I know he always tries to temper expectations but if you repeat to players and fans we are not contenders does it start to bed in to the collective psyche?

Yeh, not making me feel any better. This is so limp. It also didn’t feel like we had 10 shots in the first half seeing as only 1 was on target and the other 9 were so tame.
