WBA will be very difficult, so we could then be looking at no wins from 4 (including Morecambe). We lose this and we're still in the Death Spiral going back to Jan/Feb. A solo win against a Swansea team which kept creating our opportunities for us does not a renaissance make. We'll learn a lot tonight about where this team is headed this season.

Thankyou very much my blue and white friend Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure its always the case at Forest, they adjust the home allocation accordingly if an away team doesn't sell out... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want Mowbray out as much as anyone and I understand the point you are making but fair’s fair, you can’t just discount or disregard every victory to suit the narrative. We also won a couple of dead rubbers at the end of last season which presumably you don’t count either? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah.. Thought it was a bit strange but probably a fair explanation although a bit ott. I'm sure there'll be plenty room. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beat us 1-0 at Ewood, beat us 1-0 at the City Ground. I'd take a 0-0 bore draw here (and Forest HAVE been finding scoring difficult) but the obvious bet for this game has to be... Forest 1 Rovers 0 They beat us last season thanks to an injury time goal and also Armstrong missing a penalty, wasn't really a tactical masterclass tbf! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deflected goal too wasn't it. Or was that season before. I always feel like they beat when it's not really deserved. Seem to remember Lolley popping up with a 25 yard screamer out of nowhere one year, when we'd been well on top. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went to Forest a couple of seasons ago and it was pay on the day - cash only, no cards. May have changed now for some reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roversfan99 Posted August 18, 2021 Share Posted August 18, 2021 Ayala has to play. It is the third game in, his body shouldn't already be creaking, especially as he is being managed in training. Plus the need is greater with no defensive reinforcements as of yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomphil Posted August 18, 2021 Share Posted August 18, 2021 It's all about the points not the player so he must play and play until he can't. Points BEFORE players Tony, we really need to get as many on the board as quickly as possible. Leave the pissing about until you have no option.

Gav Posted August 18, 2021 Share Posted August 18, 2021 (edited) Hopefully keep the league run going, can't afford any injuries with an already depleted squad, if we get a draw I'll be happy. 1-1 Edited August 18, 2021 by Gav Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd take the opposite view here. Hes been good in the games he has played so far. If he can only play Saturday-saturday games then so be it. He's more useful to us fit then injured. There's no point risking him breaking down because standard expectations are that a 30 year old centre half should be able to play more than 1 game a week. Imagine if for example spurs had taken that approach with ledley King he'd never have lasted as long as he did. Ayala is a special case and needs to be treated as such. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure but you have to gather we’re going to bring at least one CB in on loan, so we can rotate him later when we have alternatives. If he’s fit play him. He’s more than likely going to break down either way, so play him whilst we can and don’t have alternatives. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tbf King started when they won the league Cup in 2008, helped them get champs league for example which he wouldn't have been able to do if his play hadn't been managed. The guy didn't train for years only played games, I'd wager that Ayala doesn't train much either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkBRFC Posted August 18, 2021 Share Posted August 18, 2021 Seems to be a lot of confusion over whether it's on the red button or not. Sky's website doesn't have any of the games tonight listed, but if you scroll down it does for the next round of midweek games. https://www.skysports.com/watch/football-on-sky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
