RE: Nottingham Forest - Millwall - zicorice - 07-03-2020
One win in six or six points in last six games.
Time to close ranks, stick together and get the 12-20 points we are likely to need to confirm top 6 as soon as we can.

There is Silva, Semedo, Bostock, Yates. How many Sow replacements do we want? They are all capable at this level or should be. We didn't lose last night because of Samba Sow. The whole team were poor and the whole team lost.
Cash was poor, Lolley was poor, Samba was poor. Some players seem excused from criticism.
We win together, we lose together.
Your quite right Sniffer, they should be but the aren’t. Silva is but is injured, Yates isn’t there yet, Semedo isn’t interested and Bostock didn’t start.
Sorry Sniff but messrs Semedo, Bostock & Yates are NOT capable at this level.
Not complaining - just an observation.

^ This.
The players need us now. They don't need us when we are winning 3-0 and on a winning unbeaten run.
They need us now when they are struggling a bit and on a bit of a bad run.
Lets stick with them, get behind them and push them over the line.

I think we were well behind them last night, great turn out, not the mass exodus at half time that there was against Sheffield Wednesday.
RE: Nottingham Forest - Millwall - Sniffer Dog (Admin) - 07-03-2020
Good. Lets keep it that way.

Bostock looks more than capable. Clever, excellent technique, good passer. A player of his ability should be in the team more often, especially when Sow is out.
Semedo is also more than capable, but for some reason can’t apply himself. A problem upstairs.
I agree Yates isn’t capable. He looks like one of the many youngsters we’ve had where the pinnacle of their career is their first dozen games after making their debut for us. He’ll end up playing his trade in League 1 or below.

Spot on Sniffer.
RE: Nottingham Forest - Millwall - Redgirl - 07-03-2020
We are behind them, it showed last night, why do people boo at half time? Do they think it’s going to help the team? Booing when we’re in a playoff position is well out of order IMO whether we’re 1-0 down or 3-0 down, if I was a player I’m sure it wouldn’t do anything for my motivation.
RE: Nottingham Forest - Millwall - Salvatore Matrecano - 07-03-2020
There are a few who boo but thought the crowd stayed pretty positive and got behind the team when we at least had a go in the second half even though we never really looked like scoring.
RE: Nottingham Forest - Millwall - ozzyten10 - 07-03-2020
The crowd were fantastic last night. I also think the players clearly cared and were as frustrated as the fans - lolley for example was almost embarrassed to be clapped as he was subbed. 2 games in 4 days due to sky schedules didn’t help either.
Millwall were very good too. Perfect away performance and one straight out of what we have been doing all year. The most frustrating thing is that gestede and smith have done this to us before - the whole fan base knew it but management and squad seemed to be oblivious to the diagonal long ball tactic and the pressing of our right hand side to nullify our own threat and create a weakness from one of our strengths.
It’s also obvious that the team haven’t been on the training ground enough this week - circumstance with injury and schedule. We do now have an 8 day prep time which I have full confidence in Sabri using well on the training ground. I also liked his backing of carvalho last night - saying he will play next match and recognising his technical ability. Good man management - I just hope he repays it in the coming weeks.
What I didn’t like was the poor subs. The game was gone from 60 minute (you could argue from half time). He should have bought grabban off and possibly Watson too. Instead grabban was toiling away and even dropping into midfield. He is obviously nursing injury and fitness - I thought that was stupidity.
Let’s hope da Costa, sow and silva get back quick. We are still in the hunt for playoffs and need to fight tooth and nail for every point from now...

Gestede. Smith. And the Sheffield Wednesday striker who destroyed Forest earlier.
Lessons in Forest's recent history. And yet...
'What does Aitor want Gestede for? (Because he scores against teams like Forest.)
What do they have in common and why don't we have that option in our squad?

Like Ryan Woods?
Or Bridcutt or Yacob?
Bridcutt was a former Leeds Captain of a trip 6-8 Leeds side. I can't see how he can't deputise. I don't think he did much wrong in a Forest shirt. But he's now gone.
Yacob seemed quality (bar one glaring mistake in the penno area...) but he wasn't the fastest.
I'd have thought either would do better than Semedo in that position.
