    The 'all new' Forest

    Karanka has been busy. Really trying to undo all the rubbish that has come before.
    I think Forest have a very very big play to play in the promotion race.
    No, not getting anywhere close to it.
    But I read somewhere yesterday and I agree with the probability, that Forest under Karanka are going to stymie many a teams promotion hopes. In fact I think they'll start today with Fulham.
    Bristol City are on the slippery slope, another loss. I think they'll be out of the top six when all's dine and dusted.

    As for Derby, I think we need a few more games to see if this Villa resurgence is for real. I still think you'll make it into No 2. But if you land in the play-offs then all bets are off.

    Six new players and Karanka is looking to rebuild the squad, not bad players either he brought in and could be the difference in helping you sustain mid table.

    Not worried about mid table. We'll finish thereabouts, I'm going for 12th place. But it would be fun to see Forest stopping some teams. And possibly relegating others.

    I don't think Forest can stop Derby. The game is in early March, enough time for you to recover if you lose. I foresee a real battle at the City Ground. Probably a draw in any case.

    Anyway I want Derby promoted, so I'll agree with your statement, everyone else excepting you.

    I would of liked to see Gary Brazil in charge of Forest I thought he was doing a superb job got the players playing really good football and they liked playing under him and got a good record whilst taking charge at the helm. As usual you go for a huge risk and bring in Karanka and have to start all over again and the players having to get used to a new system and knowing how the manager works.

    Hopefully the gamble pays off but if it doesn’t, Forest may just find themselves in a world of bother come the end of it all.
