bradford have resigned billy clarke <3 fans are grumbling cos we haven’t brought in a targetman but I’m chuffed, missed loads of sitters for us but was a lovely player to watch and clearly likes the club

also @noahvale is jacob butterfield any good?

#295

He hasn’t had a sniff under Lampard, and very few starts under Rowett so not played first team for getting on 2 years. He became a bit of a whipping boy for the fans so very few here are sad to see him go. That said, he is a pretty decent midfielder who will get a few goals too. League One should suit him

Norwich put on a pressing clinic tonight - that was some performance.

Forest were shite today but could’ve easily 4 or 5 with a more composure in front of goal. Grabban was excellent, everything seemed to stick to him. Obviously take him off pens though, I think that’s 4 misses this year - yikes. MON seems to think Watson should be starting, which is frankly astonishing given the evidence.

I thought Brentford were unlucky, but the two centre backs were easily bullied, a real weak link in an excellent team. Everything Forest created was off the back of weak centre back play, hopeful punts forward causing far too much trouble.

FArkeball! Hoping for an utter demolition of Ipshit the morra, work on that sweet sweet goal difference

Any news on what happened to Jack Clarke?

#300

He’s been discharged and is apparently ok. But it was a pretty worrying turn, had to be treated with oxygen etc. Bielsa went straight off to visit him at hospital yesterday

It’s painful as a neutral watching a team like Ipswich who are so crap but also woefully out of luck. Pennington might be one of the worst centre-halves at Championship level - looks like a fish up a tree.

these things go hand in hand though innit when yr so lacking in confidence like they are things are more likely to go against you

FWIW we weren’t even that good yesterday, we just took our chances when they came, a better team would have punished us (and have at times this season)

Could be a good idea in this actually to get more people involved in for next season maybe. I’ll have a think.

For the first time in years, I’m genuinely concerned that F*rest might actually stand a chance of properly beating us on Monday night

#308

Finding League One quite funny this season in that everyone from 8th down is complete dross.

Don’t worry, we are still shite!

I’d expect this from the oilboiler fans, not you :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

Forest have a slim chance of gate crashing the playoffs. We’d have another 4 points on the board too, but for some iffy refereeing in the previous two matches. Unbelievable given the actual performances. For better or worse we’ve left behind Karanka’s cautious passing game and embraced MO’N’s direct counter attacking approach. We’re rarely controlling possession but we’re pressing higher up and creating so much more.

Can’t argue with that. We had 64% possession last night but you had the better chances. tbqh tbf I’m not sure either of us are going to finish top 6

#313

I think it’s unlikely either will get in. No chance of beating whoever comes third over two legs. I thought Derby were pretty short of ideas, Huddlestone looked really short in the first half, allowed us to win the ball high up the field several times. What’s the verdict on Lampard?
