We need to stop worrying about other teams results; there’s 6 or 7 teams chasing 2 positions. We just need to start, then keep, winning, if we put a run together other teams will fade away.

 

 

Said this in the match thread for tomorrow. Everything is possible if we can string some wins together. After a full season every team will be where they deserve to be.

Am I crazy or did we once get a european spot because of our disciplinary record?

 

We were in the hat for qualifying for the UEFA cup via fair play in 2001 but didn't get pulled out (finished 11th season before). Then Málaga pulled out of the intertoto and we were invited in.

I think, city, forest (they have a fairly easy run of games), arsenal and Liverpool are pretty much set for top four now.

 

I think us and Chelsea have to be favourites for 5th place. Chelsea have a harder run of games than we do imo, but without botman and hall I'm not confident that well be able to keep getting results from lesser sides.

Get what you’re saying but playing the better teams suits Forest at times. When they have to attack a team sitting in a bit more then they may struggle a little (I hope).

No reason why we shouldn’t go on a run of 5 league wins in a row, all against bottom half teams and the away games are West Ham and Leicester.

 

We need the points on the board with some difficult away days at the end the of the season.

Its only 10 games and city can lose points in plenty of them in their current form.

If i remember correct we went on a very good run after the last cup final, after looking really poor the games before.

 

With 6 home games and being done with the auto-losses against City and Liverpool if think we atleast have a chance of ending up above City.

It doesn't actually feel that much of an advantage when you consider the 1-4 to Bournemouth, losing to Fulham and then Brighton in the cup recently, and somehow coming out with a win over Forest :lol:, but 6 of our last 10 are at home, which should be an advantage.

 

Unlike EVERY other team in the top 11, our non league campaign ends (win or lose) on Sunday, we then have 16 days to prepare for our next league fixture Brentford at home, and the next 2 after that are well spaced out (Wed-Mon-Sun). As others mention, our next 6 games are pretty kind on paper, 4 at home all to current bottom half sides, as well as Leicester away, and if we do get say 11-13 points from those 6 games, we'll be well placed to attack the final 4, 2 at home, 2 away where some of those teams might have nothing to play for, or preparing for European / FA Cup semi's etc.

 

The position does feel a lot better after that result.
