A lot of people like to look on the dark side of life for some strange reason.

We haven't scored in 6 of our last 8 home games sniff, draws will not keep us up. Not much to be positive about when the one thing you need to do to win is hit the back of the net. 

Im not normally negative in terms of on the pitch but the eye test does not lie.

But we are still not in the bottom 3 though.

West Ham one win in 5.

Leeds two wins in 13.

Tottenham one win in 7.

Whilst it's in our own hands, I will continue to believe.

Totally get what you are saying mate, but the performances of West Ham and Leeds carry far more threat than we do currently and come the end of the season I think that will show unless something drastically changes in front of goal for us. 

They are both putting the ball in the net So stand far more chance of winning games than we do. 

Spurs is anyone's guess.

Yes I get that MR.

However things can change and getting Wood back will help a bit (don't expect too much).

I remember a few years back when we went about 8 games or something without scoring under Cotterill and then we scored 5 away at Leeds in one game or something similar. I can't remember exactly.

I realise we are not scoring goals now but that could change.

Sniffer I am normally a positive person but my lack of faith with all things Forest this season have tested me. I am now in a realistc mind set and just looking forward to next season in a more positive sense, roll on the Summer!

I'm with you, this run of creating loads of shot without scoring will eventually regress back to the mean. Our current conversion rate was something like 8% and we're not even getting close to that in the last few games, that's pretty unlikely. We scored three in Fenerbahce too which was impressive.

We were pretty unlucky vs Fulham too, goal and pen disallowed by marginal offsides and hitting the bar. We're still creating big chances, they will start going in at some point. Ideally that will be these next two games.

Everyone is obviously very Forest focused but despite what it feels like no-one has pulled away and are mainly getting draws as well.

It does feel like one game could just click and they all fly in. Be nice if its vs Spurs.

Not too dissimilar to Nuno's first season where it suddenly clicked vs Fulham that game after we'd been struggling for a while. Obviously as it turned out, the competition basically collapsed anyway but at the time it was starting to look dicey.

Woody will be back.
Sharp as a tack apparantly in training, absolutely flying.

Could well make the difference
