Barnsley - Nottingham Forest
Seems to me that Lamouchi has lost his bottle.

That was painful to listen to and then watch a minute behind on ifollow. Looks like we’re about to do the most Forest thing and limp over the line at best. Perspective wise we’d have taken this scenario at the start of the season but now it seems a let down which shows how far we’ve come.

But to set up in the way we did & ( fail to ) perform in that manner is simply unacceptable - and represents the kind of performance that gets managers sacked.

a win today would have made a big difference.

to state the obvious...

Yeah but I actually put it into context, not sure why you singled just that bit out.

Agreed. I think hes got it completely wrong and the pressure of the run on has skewered his approach today. IIRC we have played with 3 CD's 3 times this season. Wihan away lost, Milwall A losing until he changed it back, and now today.

If the attackers are not in good shape then give Mighten, Walker etc starts. Dont change the shape of the entire team for F's sake. 

Conplete f**k up today im afraid.

if Swansea win by 3 and we lose by 2, i guess Swansea go up on goals scored being more than ours, not that that could ever happen in a million years

my worry is that there would be a hell of a ding dong in the changing rooms after the game and the team spirit is seriously dented

it could still be a masterclass by Sabri if his plan was damage limitation as in a small loss would still technically be viewed as a victory, like for example having the 5 plus goal differance, it maybe just takes us a while to adjust our thinking to glass being way, way, way more than half full

Im angry now but if we do get into the play offs, our full team, ie with Lolley, Cash, Ameobi, Samba can give any side in this division a game.

We have been fairly crap for a long while now.

January let us down. Its very hard to watch this football every game is a struggle.

Sounds dramatic but if dyche and ian woan became available I would go for them in an instant. Our style of play is brutally negative. It's our best season in years but we have shot ourselves in the foot so many times its utterly frustrating . We shit ourselves constantly.

His approach in the last few ganes has been to not get beat against teams who could overtake us. Thats fine but whats actually happened is that we've  lost any kind of momentum. If we scrape through on Wednesday then we'll be going into the play offs from a standing start. History tells you that sides that do that get beat in the semis.

Dyche could surely do better than Forest? Obviously would be a great appointment. Our style would also remain brutally negative under Dyche too. Sabri does appear to have given marinakis a choice now, whereas a few weeks ago you'd have said it was safe he'd be here for the forseeable future

Himself and woan would love to be here someday. I know that much. Woan still lives near enough to the ground.

We have 4 more points than last season. Not exactly massive strides. Between clough and carvalho thats 16million pound worth of talent not even making the squad.

All these late goals are happening because we are too negative.

The last thing we need is another manager Jock. Weve been there and done that. We need an upgrafe in players, not manager. 

Grabban has pit such a shift in this season its unreal. And Ameobi has been a lucky suprise. Without those two we're a midtable side. Lolley has been hot and cold. Carvalho's a no show. Weve nothing else attacking wise. Its no wonder we set up defensively.
