    LETS GET REALISTIC

    All the rubbish that is posted on this site is a bit pathetic to say the least, everybody is blaming BD for team selection tactics etc, but the fact is you can't blame 2 or 3 injuries but can blame 8 or 10, he has no choice to pick what he has left and if they don't or can't do what he tells them that is not his fault. Even Mclaren said we got them with all these injuries.I believe we would be in the top 3 with all our player in the team. the papers are sacking him already and surely Fawaz must see the position BD is in, and the fans slating him are not making things any better. Derby, Burnley and Wigan would not have looked so good against our full strength team. take 8 players out of any team and they would struggle to find a win.
    I am expecting this team, will lose again if it is the same tuesday night. WE WILL MAKE THE PLAYOFFS

    Well that forest side should never of lost 5-0 to any championship side, that forest line up should be a play off team easily, there's no excuse mate, however we have 9 games left so plenty of points to play for, if we don't beat Charlton then I doubt if we make the playoffs.

    I have said on many occasions that i support BD, but he is on the brink of alienating fans like me

    I am not defending Davies (much) but Ned said in the post match interview that they had discussed and worked on 'tracking their midfielders' all week.
    You can either believe that and assume Moussi never turned up for training or call it an excuse and say that they never discussed Derby's threat from midfield.
    My guess is they worked on it and as the referee blew for the kick off there was collective amnesia.

    Oh and I have rarely seen such incompetence on a football pitch as when Jara gave the ball away (AGAIN) and went tear@rsing after the ball, leaving the left flank resembling a green wasteland. I am getting sick of him ballsing up - he has a World Cup coming up, drop him and he might get his act together.
    As for Moussi, he's committing fraud by taking a footballers paycheck

    Realistic is not posting predictions of which teams we will beat and which teams we will draw against in the next month for which each month has been "crucial" with even the most pessimistic predictions proving to be wildly overoptimistic - at least one myth has now been exploded,ly, the idea that we were in the top six and would stay there just by beating a few "inferior" teams. Frankly, anybody with half a brain could see that we were slowly slipping away due to a number of factors, not least of which was the manager completely losing the plot.

    We were not scoring goals and needed a striker in January. Signing a player who had never played in this country and expecting him to make an immediate impact was ill-conceived. With three months of the season left we needed someone capable of scoring at this level. To add insult to injury, we let Miller and McGoldrick go without really giving them much of a chance, but kept Derbyshire.

    Maybe the transfer budget had been hit by the desp

    I was a bit unbalanced after the shock of yesterday, but I have the feeling we may get our own back if we make the play offs come on forest lets start on Tuesday with a angry win

    I think the injury excuse is wearing a bit thin now. Davies has spent a fair wad of cash building a squad that us bigger and stronger than Derby or Burnley. Losing 8 or 9 players is inevitably going to have an effect but the other players in the squad should still be able to do a job.

    Derby made 3 three enforced changes to their own starting line up by the way. Hughes makes things happen from midfield to compliment Bryson's running - not fit. Eustace is our holding midfielder - suspended, so Thorne had to come in who hasn't played for us before. Dawkins injured, replaced by Bamford.

    So Derby weren't even at full strength.

    Then consider that the other week Millwall came to the ipro and stopped us from playing, broke up play, got in our faces, frustrated us, then nicked a goal and three points. Yeovil were 2-0 up at the ipro at half time, we just managed to nick it back to 3-2 in the last minute I'd so.

    So if teams fighting relegation can put a shift in, the I think a promotion conte
