The Suprafacial "Nottingham Forest to the Superbowl" Thread

First topic message reminder :

Signed 2 defenders on loan, Jara from West Brom and Ward from Norwich

by Shot 21 LCFC Wed 29 Jan 2014, 4:29 pm

I wouldnt have thought that would have been a problem for big-spending Forest... Whistle

by NickisBHAFC Wed 29 Jan 2014, 4:50 pm

Exactly. I swear they were paying 35 grand a week for that lad on loan from Chelsea.

20 grand a week isn't much for a side like Forest.

by GSC Wed 29 Jan 2014, 8:30 pm

We didn't pay all of Chalobahs wages and 6 months is a tad different to 3 years.

by GSC Thu 30 Jan 2014, 11:44 am

Anyway Rafik Djebbour signs permanantly and Kevin Gomis and Danny Fox join on loan with a view to perm moves.

Bridcutt to Sunderland might ease the way for Vaughan also

Danny Fox is so excited to be joining he doesn't even realize hes signing a blank piece of paper

by GSC Thu 30 Jan 2014, 9:47 pm

Good comeback, looked lethargic for an hour, got some strikers on and they scored 4. Collins and Lascelles at the back was always going to be trouble aerially.

Reaction to Djebbour perhaps. We'll see what happens with Vaughan, Hobbs and Graham tomorrow

by westisbest Thu 30 Jan 2014, 9:48 pm

Watched the last 20 mins. Forest impressive.

Christ Andy Reid is on fire this season.

2 great crosses, especially the one for Henderson.

by GSC Thu 30 Jan 2014, 9:58 pm

Was an outstanding ball. Has a great ability to see passes some PL players won't even think about. Shame it's taken him this long to be professional about his fitness. Might be biased but for me it's between him and Ings for PotS

by westisbest Thu 30 Jan 2014, 10:07 pm

His vision to pick a player out is second to none(high praise i know).

His crosses are top draw, and he certainly knows where the goal is.

He 's better than a lot of the cannon fodder in the premiership.

by NickisBHAFC Thu 30 Jan 2014, 11:22 pm

Forest should easily be getting promoted. The bench speaks for itself. One can only wish for the striking options they have.

by GSC Thu 30 Jan 2014, 11:37 pm

Yeah teams are queuing up for Henderson, Tudgay and Derbyshire

by GSC Thu 30 Jan 2014, 11:43 pm

Disappointed in Watford. Horribly negative tonight, a shadow of last seasons team

by westisbest Fri 31 Jan 2014, 7:58 am

Said to a few guys at work couple of months ago, Watford would be poor this season.

Could be your season to win the play offs GSC, if you dont make 2nd.

Would'nt mind another night in Nottingham.
Really enjoued it last time.
Pulled a stunner, my mate pulled her aunt, ah, great night.
Went few years ago with some of my mates who follow Bournemouth.
Finished 1-1.
Missed the first 10 mins as we were having a good time in Hooters Very Happy

by GSC Fri 31 Jan 2014, 4:52 pm

Vaughan back on a 6 month loan before his contract expires is good business. He, lansbury and Reid are as good a trio as anyone has in this league. If they stay fit we should be in the reckoning around May.

Good window so far, hopefully we can keep Hobbs and maybe add Dorrans. Graham seems Boro bound

by GSC Fri 31 Jan 2014, 5:44 pm

Sounds like Hobbs is in Nottingham trying to agree a deal. We were always his first choice

by GSC Fri 31 Jan 2014, 7:19 pm

Jack Hobbs done. Top window

by GSC Fri 31 Jan 2014, 11:01 pm

Reid and Hobbs tied down, Vaughan and Fox on loan, Djebbour in. No complaints. Also that random French CB

by GSC Sat 01 Feb 2014, 10:28 am

Team for tomorrow vs Yeovil, I'd go with

Cox

Paterson---Abdoun

Reid-Lansbury

Vaughan

Fox-Hobbs-Lascelles-Lichaj

Darlow

by GSC Sun 02 Feb 2014, 5:11 pm

Good win, Djebbour scored on debut, good performance. Fox played well. Could do with Hobbs back, Collins is dreadful

by GSC Tue 04 Feb 2014, 4:59 pm

First RIP Nigel Doughty, 2 years ago today. Club legend.

David Vaughan out for 3 months is a bit of a kicker. Moussis played decently lately, but Jaras the greater passes so he might play DM

by GSC Wed 05 Feb 2014, 8:01 pm

Lansbury out for 3 months is more than a kicker. Might be struggling to hold 6th at this rate. Suspect they'll add in the loan window now

by GSC Wed 05 Feb 2014, 9:42 pm

Real smash and grab for the 2nd string side. Clough vs Davies, no love lost there

by Hibbz Wed 05 Feb 2014, 9:56 pm

I watched the 2nd half. I hope Forest haven't used up a seasons supply of luck in one match. Listen to me I almost sound like I care again.

As someone who watches Forest more regularly do you think Radi (can't be ar$ed to try and spell it) will play more if Lansbury is injured. I've enjoyed watching Radi in the past.

by GSC Wed 05 Feb 2014, 10:17 pm

The problem is since the 3rd place season, Radi has a month where he looks like a star then does nothing for 6 months. I'd be surprised if they didn't target Dorrans

by NickisBHAFC Wed 05 Feb 2014, 10:39 pm

One injured player and Forest don't think they will get 6th Laugh

If Forest don't get at least a play off spot, its a complete failure.

by GSC Wed 05 Feb 2014, 11:06 pm

Actually 2 injured players in our position of strength. Plus Wilson and Cohen.

The FA schedule our tie for a Sunday, as the FL reschedule the Leicester game for the following Tuesday. Brilliant

by Shot 21 LCFC Thu 06 Feb 2014, 10:09 am

What?! I was actually cosidering whether to go, but sod Tuesday night!!

by GSC Thu 06 Feb 2014, 10:13 am

Yeah at this point they just schedule lower league games opposite FA cup games and reschedule for teams still standing.

Hopefully Sky get involved and shift it to wednesday since 2 days rest vs 9 is a joke

by Shot 21 LCFC Thu 06 Feb 2014, 11:11 am

Actually, now you put it like that, Tuesday sounds good to me!! Whistle

by GSC Fri 07 Feb 2014, 10:55 am

They've released a 3rd kit in February, however only 2014 are going on sale. Not entirely sure what the point is there tbh.

by GSC Sat 08 Feb 2014, 2:07 pm

Hobbs back in. Interesting team, Cox and Djebbour both start.

Heard rumours they want Guedioura back on loan

by GSC Sat 08 Feb 2014, 4:57 pm

Had to settle for a point away at our bogey team. Wasn't a fantastic performance

by GSC Tue 11 Feb 2014, 9:41 pm

Better performance and 3 points. Patersons emerging as a good find

by GSC Sun 16 Feb 2014, 4:55 pm

(more than) Slightly harsh penalty but we brought it on ourselves. Lacked intensity in the 2nd half. At least QPR are losing.

by GSC Sun 16 Feb 2014, 10:10 pm

To be brutally honest Nick. It's really boring. I'm putting you on ignore for a while

by Shot 21 LCFC Mon 17 Feb 2014, 10:22 am

Hopefully the game tired you out, whereas we will be fresh as daisies. Also you unbeaten run is over so you should have a bit less confidence than you would have if you had won.

by GSC Mon 17 Feb 2014, 11:38 am

I'd be surprised, we barely broke into a sprint in the 2nd half.

by GSC Wed 19 Feb 2014, 9:40 pm

Decent point or two points dropped. Leicester have the most crucial part of a promotion campaign though in luck.

by NickisBHAFC Wed 19 Feb 2014, 10:28 pm

Should be beating Leicester at home. Even we managed it.

by Shot 21 LCFC Thu 20 Feb 2014, 10:35 am

Which was back in early December and was our last loss in the league. Its not as easy as you think.

Before the game I was telling my mates that a point will do. Even more so after the red card.

by GSC Sat 22 Feb 2014, 5:56 pm

Tough loss today, played poorly. No Reid through a calf injury to boot.

Automatics out of reach with our injuries now.

by GSC Sat 22 Feb 2014, 5:58 pm

Injuries getting ridiculous now, don't like to blame them but our entire first choice defense and midfield missed today with injuries

by Marky Sat 22 Feb 2014, 8:07 pm

Could be worse, you could be QPR.

by Guest Sat 22 Feb 2014, 8:10 pm

Yeah I wonder - should QPR continue to drop - if Redknapp comes under any sort of pressure?

I thought they were nailed on for automatic promotion.

by Marky Sat 22 Feb 2014, 8:12 pm

Surely their small budget gives him the benefit of the doubt Whistle

by GSC Sat 22 Feb 2014, 8:12 pm

Harry just needs more players

by Guest Sat 22 Feb 2014, 8:16 pm

They are in dire need of a striker or 5 to be fair.

In an ideal world they'll make the play off final and lose to a last minute OG.

To Steve McClaren's Derby. Have a look at what you coulda won. Asking too much I know.

by GSC Sat 22 Feb 2014, 8:21 pm

Nah I could do without the McClaren fluffinh

by GSC Wed 26 Feb 2014, 5:44 pm

Andy Reid has a hernia and is out a few weeks.

**** life. To say our recent luck with injuries has been cruel is an understatement.

by GSC Wed 26 Feb 2014, 6:46 pm

Also Blackstock is suing Olofinjana for the tackle that wrecked his knee
