It should be a positive

Seriously?

Should we have an open top bus parade too so we can have a proper celebration?

WTF? It would be massive for me I know that much.

40 odd players signed, a colossal amount of injuries to contend with. It's never been done before with this amount of players. 

I am not looking forward to the day Sheff United over take us with that c**t of a manager who no doubt will still harp about injustices is what drove them on. So if that can be avoided I'll be celebrating for sure.

He said if we had a chance of staying up.

He didn't say if we managed to stay up.

All the stats and facts say that if we need a win on the last day of the season  we will lose so I for one will not be celebrating.

If by some miracle we managed to win then I will just as much as anyone else.
Panic on the streets of Croydon, Derby, Sheffield, Leicestershire.

Anybody note that straight from the start 6 or 7 Southampton players where up into the Arsenal half and in their faces, goal game in less then 90 seconds. Anybody recall Forest doing this in an match home or away this season? We would automatically retreat the entire side into a defensive line in our final third of the pitch from the whistle and this has been our and SC downfall, we just lack any balls to take the game to the opposition, madness!

Our performances of late are a million miles from the Southampton one last night. There's a very good chance we finish bottom imo.

Problem is compounded Pap as when we both go down Southampton will have a much better and balanced squad and we will still have most of the mish mash of a squad supplemented by a similar approach to player recruitment!

Sorry, why are you defending Southampton, there's a reason they're bottom of the league by 3. They're not a good team, they've been awful of late, last night was the first time they've shown fight in weeks which was helped by an early gift from the keeper.

They're consistently bottom of all the stats table too and by all metrics are deserving of their status of 20th. If you want a true example of how bad they've been this year, they lost at home to Forest!

Can you see Forest putting on a do or die performance today like they did last night? I cant.

We only have one player with fight and determination, that is Yates and he won't play. Going to be embarrassing today I am afraid. The team will sit back and hoof balls hoping someone can run onto them. Really depressing

I remember a very similar performance against Man City not too long ago actually yeah.

Felipe also fights for every ball, every inch of ground and is a decent player generally. Carried the ball forwards numerous times last week and showed bundles of "fight and determination" as he always does. Worrall too shows both traits wherever on the pitch. Personally thought McKenna did too. 

Agree we need more of it, but we don't only have "one player with fight and determination".

Leeds just scored. Big finish ahead in this game.
