However, the way I see it is this- Should Forest win tonight then they're in the play offs guaranteed and may well rest aif their team for the remaining two games. Automatic promotion may be beyond Brentford come the final day and I'm sure that they'll be resting players if that is the case. Leeds away on Thursday is of course a different proposition. Probably as tough a fixture as they come. However, the pressure is all on them, there's no crowd present and we gave them a game in the reverse fixture. Also bear in mind that Luton went there a couple of weeks ago and got a point.
Maybe I'm reaching for shyte but certain styles of teams seem to suit us. Being a betting man I won't be rushing to the bookies to put money on us surviving but it's not totally out of the question...... is it?
