Temperature Check - October

I remember that one year a team started really bad and went of a winning streak to promotion. Was it Palace?

Was that under Dowie??

Roy Keane got Sunderland up once after a bad start too.

When brentford finished 3rd two years ago, they had a slow start - 3 wins, 3 draws and 5 defeats from first 11 matches and placed 17th in the table. They missed out on 2nd by two points (and lost their last two games). 

Not saying we will repeat that but i don't think there are any really stand out teams this season - i think its going to be tighter than ever so who knows

Let’s not get ahead of ourselves. I think Lady Luck was with us today. The sort of stuff that went against us under Hughton. However - we are attacking well and have a much more progressive approach that brings rewards- fortune favours the brave. 9 points + from next 4 games though and your on!

Yeah as much as this is all true, who cares we've not got a game for a few weeks! Let's just enjoy the ride, we've not had a run like this to enjoy for a long time. 3 away wins in a row!

a few games ago i would of taken survival, a goal, a point, a throw in, anything

i'm not sure now, i like lots of goals but probably prefer to play bad and win than play em off the park and lose

the excitement is we certainly seem to of gone from a side that couldn't score to a side that looks highly likely to score every time we cross the half way line

i also like the tactical stuff, particularly 15 players being heavily involved especially in the wins, also many involved in the goals and many playing very well, also many more open to more development

this game can be extremely cruel it was to Sabri and Hughton and also to Brum today, but, the common denominator is that in the end you make your own luck, success should breed success

also it hasn't been really mentioned but i think the manager isn't just letting the players have more freedom in the games, i think they are involved in finding the answers, sort of camaraderie and then some

but what i really really want is that next time we wear the sunburst sunset sunrise sunny strip i want lyle taylor to have yellow and orange hair, i think it would be amazing and would raise more money for the cause

Kettles on to boil.

Cooper has made Forest's own luck (and rode the luck broncho here and there.)

Cooper's defining his own positive reality distortion field at Forest. It manifests so.

Well, it seems like 15 players are attacking when Forest go forward now.

Positive pragmatism.  As opposed to being merely pragmatic.

Being further up the pitch.  A happy face.  The spring in your step.  The games were close before under Hughton.  

What a difference a smile can make to your life.

...those 'little' things have turned the tide in our direction.  Positivity.  Energy.  Belief.  Personable.  Details.  Nuance.  Instruction.  Development.

Faith.
