Nottingham Forest - Luton Town

[Strawberry Avenger]

Not disagreeing SA - and I’ve been banging on about our lack of pre season since the date was announced of the players return from their Summer jollies.

But I’m guessing that if you asked fans from around the Championship they would all have a litany of reasons as to why their particular clubs are not performing. Not sure that we are any different.

I remain confident in CH - predict 5 points from the next 5 game run against the top teams - and a mid table finish.

(Completely agree on the reason 'in chief' for why we are where we are.  It was insanity.  Pure and simple.)

We'd be in 12th had we picked up the '5' points on offer from Derby and Luton.  The frustrating 'what might have beens?'

As you say.  If we pick up 5 points from the next 3 games or so we'd be about mid-mid table.

Despite the results.  The performances from the recent run of games has been miles better.  Encouraging.  And clearly playing to the manager's brief.  And that instills confidence, TPL.  We're getting there.  But we're not there.  Luton stick out a leg and we lose '1 nil' cuz we can't score.  As we know.  Look at the top 7.  What can they do?  Score goals.  Lots of them.  They're another 20 goals or so ahead of Forest.

The better performances soothe the sting of Forest's pre-season capitulation and dart board transfer policy and self inflicted timing of sacking the previous 'manager.'

I just hope we stick with Hughton over a couple more seasons and see a project through (for a change.)

SA.
