We've humbled the top 6.
On that basis we 'should' be 2nd.
Forest need to keep Sow and Grabban fit and some how maintain consistency.
Instead of tossing points away to the unfashionable sides.

We are much more organised than before and I feel much stronger especially away from home. Yes I know we won away at Yeovil and then succumbed but we just have a much more professional team now. Just hope if we do, we have a full strength side to choose from.
Based on this season, away leg second wouldn't be a bad thing. Might take the pressure off when it mattered
Agreed. Away leg second please (if it comes to that).

The subject of this thread.......
NO.....we just aren’t good enough, good performances against top teams yet poor against teams we are expected to beat, Charlton for one , now QPR.
Playoff perhaps but it’s so tight that one stumble means you are out of it and that’s what Forest are good at.
I see defeat in playoff legs against.......Fulham...
RE: Season 2019/20 Can We Finally Go Up? - GaribaldiRED - 23-02-2020
I don't agree that we were poor against QPR. Forest had enough chances to win the game. But I agree that top two is probably out of reach but Forest do play well against the better teams and if that is the case in the play offs as well then it is definitely possible with PL play at the WFCG next season. Keep the faith.

Keep May free in your diaries.
2 (3?) additional games.
RE: Season 2019/20 Can We Finally Go Up? - Duncan Mckenzie - 23-02-2020
We are still well placed and all to play for. Plenty of twists and turns still to come.

I know this won't be a popular opinion but believe that if the table and/or the p!ay offs dictate that we are not promoted then it will be correct because we would not be good enough. If we can't beat the likes of QPR, Millwall, Cardiff and others then it's best that we stay in the Championship until we are. Even though I am totally supporting our owner and his set up I was very disappointed with our January efforts in the transfer window. It has left us short of the boost that would have seen us home. We are a very long way from Premiership quality sadly.

Perfect summary.
Great manager, great academy products, some great AK signings, all dragged down by largely sub-standard signings this year by Modesto & co.

But we are in The Championship.
Once we get to The PL the squad/team will completely change to make us competitive in the league we are in.

Duncan, if we had performed well during the January window then I would agree with you because I want to and you would be right. But we didn't and so I can't agree because there is no evidence that we could or would create the kind of revolution that would make us a successful Premiership team.
RE: Season 2019/20 Can We Finally Go Up? - Duncan Mckenzie - 23-02-2020
What happened in January will have no bearing on what would happen if we somehow went up. I don't think you can compare the two things. We would get about 200m just for being promoted for a start. It will be a whole different ball game to January.
