Nottingham Forest - Stoke City

[stirred]

Any of the top 5 will have murdered us in the play offs. Weve been hanging by a thread for weeks. We have 11 good players and one way of playing.

If the players get tired or injured then rests dip. Winter transfer window is the absolute reason weve faded. Who was responsible for that needs sacking, not the manager.

Totally agree we were in a great place and that was the time to strengthen, but we just don't seem to have financial room due to FFP.

4 of the top 6 are receiving parachute payments of 30-odd or 40-odd million.
Our total revenue is only 25 million.
Leeds' is 49million.
Only Brentford outperformed us considering that.

We need to offload the players that aren't contributing but costing big wages, i.e. 1 million a year for Pantilimon, and all the others, Clough, Hef, Benalouane etc and wheel & deal and find some gems in the summer.
