Anyone else watching? Good match 2-1 so far and a Leicester missed penalty with some sitters missed.

Me too tbe table looked better when it was 1-1 to me!? 😂😂
Ideally, Fword and Everton would go down with Southampton. Everton would be hot favourites to come straight back up making it harder for Fword to make a swift return.
It's probably going to be Leeds, Everton and Soton who go though. Fword will no doubt beat Saints and probably get something against Chelsea.
Arsenal might have lost the title and nowt to play for by 20th May.
Think there’s a goal left in this game.
Sadly that's my prediction too, Everton have got some winnable games but are just plain poor. Leeds who after beating F*rest at home , doesn't almost everyone?, I actually thought would survive and almost safe are conceding far too many, the keepers confidence is shot and you can't lose at Fulham and Bournemouth and Palace at home and think you will stay up.
Already bet on F*rest to beat Saints at evens for whenever that game is.
I was chatting to a Forest fan the other day and he said he much preferred life in the Championship, where you knew you had a chance of winning most weeks. He goes to most away games and says it’s been beyond grim. Despite all this, I’ll still be amazed if they go down. Pick two from Leicester, Leeds and Everton to go with Southampton - all of them are shockingly poor.
Heard similar from a Red Dog I know well. He thinks they will just stay up due to almost exclusively their record at the CG. He says they've been fortunate on occasions but he also said he's never heard better vocal support in all his years supporting. It really can make a difference in all those games they win by a single goal. It was incredible against Brighton the other night even when they were struggling.
I would love them to get relegated, naturally, but even if they don't the man the F*rest fans love and give almost unwavering support because the incredible job he's done and the challenge they are up against in a full season has got no closer to working out how they win games away from home. Just the one solitary win to date, that is his big concern next season if they stay up. The low block and 30% possession hitting on the counter approach ,which is such grim viewing for the loyal away supporters , just hasn't worked.
Vocal support for a team is *****, and although a cliche, it really can be the twelfth man, or in Sunday's case when I was at the Ice Hockey World Championships supporting Great Britain, the 7th man. There was a large contingent of opposition fans there, Polish in this case, who were loud too, but the GB fans never stopped singing and cheering all through the game, and I am convinced it is that which saw them over the line to a narrow victory in overtime. If Red Dogs fans and GB Ice Hockey fans can do it then so must us Notts fans.
