So Called Pundits
#13
I don’t have a problem with pundits picking us to go down, I mean we have to be the favourites. What annoyed me was the coverage of the Utd game, we barely got a mention. Partly that was a lack of attacking play on our part but there was little discussion of our situation, squad anything across a 90 min game. They even have Psycho in the studio and still very little Forest. I found it pretty irritating

Dont be unfair now. They managed to mention we only scored once away from home at least 195 times

Not sure if he qualifies as a pundit but I see that Alan Rogers is properly laying into the Johnson haters on Twitter.

Chris Sutton’s prediction: Blackpool 1-0 Nottingham Forest.
Panic on the streets of Croydon, Derby, Sheffield, Leicestershire.

I think that score line is quite plausible if SC decides to send out a much weakened side. The players suggested by many on here to play tomorrow are basically a top-half Championship team and despite the current position in the league Blackpool and their manager are no mugs!

We have a 25 man squad and whoever plays from that 25 does not make us a much weakened side. A little bit weakened perhaps but if everyone is on their game and we show Blackpool some respect then we should win the game.

Agree with this in principle, as the team I suggested at the top lacks pace, but conversely all of the players have started Prem games this season. 

Individually I'd say they are all Prem players or at least a strong  case can be made for them all, its just whether any unproven youngsters are thrown in and whether Blackpool can park the bus successfully?

Much will depend on the mentality too. Pre Spurs in Caraboa I saw teams and feared the worst, but our players were determined to give Cooper selection decisions going forward. If the team is picked from our 25 I hope the same can happen.
