Season 2019/20 Can We Finally Go Up?
One of Swansea’s goals at the weekend was made by Connor Gallagher and scored by Rhian Brewster, players can definitely come in and make a difference.

Also a reflection on how much better now the players need to be in order to improve us compared to previous seasons.

If we could get a SOW / SAMBA equivalent for CF then we'd be laughing!

It's players of that quality we need to target for the CF and ACM positions.

It would be transformational.

We're 5th and 5 points off 2nd currently.

Our recruitment for the players to improve Forest is going to have to be very focused and laser precise.

The opportunity that presents itself must be matched by ambition by recruitment to attain the quality players necessary.

My God, how quick things can change.

Just a few weeks ago we were about 13-11 points behind WBA and Leeds.

At 9.30pm tomorrow it could be just 3-2 points.

'My God.' I think we could use his help to get Forest out the Championship.

That's football.  Nobody believed Calderwood when he said there were enough games to claw it back against Doncaster when getting promoted from Division 3.

*Apprehensive.

I hope Forest turn up tomorrow.

Can we even imagine a situation where Forest are 2 points behind Leeds and 3 behind WBA?  Is it possible? :o

So the data stats are in again for the championship and at current it is estimated 78 points required for top 6 and 92 for top 2. Personally, I see them as far too high considering no one is breaking away not even the top half is breaking away from mid-table teams. Everyone is beating everyone in this league. However on current form Forest should hit between 77 and 80 points at the end of the season.

We could take a giant step forward tonight.

Fingers crossed. I have even been to church.

Given games of this nature before...ie 'this game really counts.'  Forest have bottled them.  Many, many times over the last 20 years.

The one that stood out as different was then Maji' blew WBA away with his wonder goal to put Forest 2nd.

The result is all important.  But if Forest can win with a 'to the sword' performance, even better.  But i'd take Forest scraping it with the 'same luck' that got Reading a point last time.

But there are no easy games in the Champ'.  Luton, Reading.  They're all tough.  No guarantees.

Forest need to turn up tonight. Win the midfield battle and take their chances.

...and if we have some divine intervention...?

Even better.  :cool:

Unless we recruit well I’m a little pessimistic about our chances. We have to be top 2, we bottle too many important games to get through the playoffs and IMO the current squad is not quite good enough. Decent window and top 2 is possible there is still everything to play for.
