Norwich had a lot of lucky 'last minute' wins last season.  They weren't that special when we played them.

That's football for you.

Good point made, however, I would say with forest the depth in the squad is pretty dire the quality even worse.

Without Sow, Forest would be treading water to stay in the top 6 as the recent fall away to 9th WITHOUT Sow proved.

You build along the spine from the back.  Samba.  Worrall (really stepped up this season), Sow, Grabban.  Those are quality players.  But to really stamp our authority on our promotion chances?  We're painfully short of several players.  Quality ones in the 'Sow'/Samba/Grabban class.  And they either cost money or we need recruitment to knock it out the park.

That's the 4th best spine in the division.  But let's not pretend we don't need a winger, a more robust and match winning ACM and a different type of striker.  

And yes.  Cover for Sow.  No Sow?  No top 6.  Lose Grabban?  It's over.

I think The Coach, the fans and probably the recruitment team are well aware of the flaws of this team.  We pretty much all know we need 3 players in.  Minimum.

But, given the resources at the disposal, the coach has done a sound job. Forest are higher this season at this point than last? That's progress.

Leeds 0 - 1 Wed'.

The script is there.

Late winner?

Are you on a wind up Buddy?
 Wind up? no mate just giving my opinion that's all. By the sound of it, you obviously disagree and I respect that but I just don't see any quality in the forest squad other than Samba Grabban Lolley (at times) the rest are bang average in my opinion 
The performances are consistently dire and it's rare very rare that you see a forest victory by more than 1 goal. Are you convinced by them?

Jenkinson on for Chema

Cash really peeved off at Reading player.

Forest have changed their ideas. Jenkins on. Chema off. That last tackle of his seemed to tighten his hamstring again?

Push on Worrall from same player who wound Cash up.
