It is not a generational thing believing whether we will be relegated or not. 

There is the feeble mindset that think it is always going to happen.
Then there is the stupidly optimistic who have faith based on very little.

Then there is majority of rational fans who can see we are on the path to relegation this season unless some massive upturn of which there are currently no signs of that happening.

This, in spades. I’m sure most of us were there in the 90’s, so people can stop the patronising crap about the ‘younguns giving up’. 

Never thought we’d be relegated under RH (until this season at least), only time I was slightly worried was under Hughes at Swansea but we even managed to survive then. This is different though, it’s a pathetic team with an awful manager and it’s heading one way.

What signs of improvement was there really?  We had a bit of commitment?  awesome.

We are now an ugly long ball side that still cannot get a point.  We are worse now than compared to when Ralph was here.  This entire Nathan Jones experiment is a waste of time. He wont be our manager next season.

Totally agree. A lot of bluster and chasing down the second ball after the long hoof from Baz, but there's no real cohesion. Felt we had a chance to win once S.Armstrong came on and we became more direct but then the substitutions send out the message we would play for a draw. We can't have Che up front on his own and what's the Croatian Caleta-Car done to offend the management? He looked vaguely competent against Lincoln and surely better than Lyanco.

KwP

DCC

ABK

Perraud

Lavia

JwP

Mo

Stu

Edozie

Adams

The fact that this is probably the best we’ve got to offer sums up why we are bottom of the league.

Watching Forest v Chelsea... this Johnson lad looks like he could cause us some issues. They sit in and counter attack quite well. I could see us struggling against this on Wednesday 😪

quite hard to counter attack when they’ll have 80% possession

Utterly pointless thinking about how big a game this is when you just know NJ will go with Lyanco, change the formation 800 times and lose to a soft goal. 
 

Our bunch of losers don’t have a big game in them. 

I find this one funny as everyone complained about ralph having only Plan A so now we are having a go at the guy for trying to find a system that works and helps us win a game.

Forest taking the game to Chelsea. We’re not going to enjoy this game midweek, are we?

They aren’t great, but they’ve got players with a bit of muscle, height and grit. We don’t.

Best hope for us is a draw, which even that we can’t afford.

Smart tactics by players such as Aribo on saturday barely running, saving themselves for Wednesday. Forest are giving it a right go… could tire themselves out.

TBF we beat Chelsea at home, so can’t really complain about results like this. Besides, Chelsea are in crap form themselves.

Forest seem to be able to work themselves up for big games at home. 
 

look decent though and was hoping they would look more clueless

seriously though those bands are just gonna be lobbed when we concede the first. Hope people don’t participate. we’re a laughing stock, no other club has to put up with this much bs

It's fucking nonsense isn't it, Kingsland stand wearing some glow in the dark wristbands,  stupid gimmicks designed by a marketing team who have zero awareness of the customer. 

Ignore it or probably chuck them on the pitch in protest

that would be a good protest against s*men’s and sport rep, reminds me of the clappers. You had to duck and cover if you were in a lower row as they always came flying at full time.

Remember the scarfs. That was a funny one as they flew from the stands to the pitch. One of the commercial leader’s bright ideas as he knows fuck all about football. 

I think our board should stick to a manufactured noddy culture they’d prefer to be involved in if the money was there for them, like rugby or cricket.

I don’t think this lot have it in them to win must win games. No real leadership or character on the pitch. As soon as the going gets tough this lot melt like an ice cube on a sunbed. 

Should never have let Oriel go. What were they thinking?

Probably that he’s a limited player, hasn’t been playing well for ages and wants to leave, so let’s sell him.

Miles better than what we have and a leader. Plus gave JWP more of the game. Apart from that, yeah, limited.

He was playing badly in that team which lost 10 out of 13 or whatever it was. He was one of a large number of players we needed to replace.

 F*ck off

Club going down the toilet in so many ways, piss poor squad, questionable manager appointment, no direction from above.

But some dickhead decided what the fans need is more pre-match crap and a light show. Hope it doesn’t impede the much loved funeral procession of OWTSGMI before the game.

No doubt there will be a lot of smug back slapping in the Commercial Dept or whoever is responsible for this bollocks.
