Saint Charlie

Anyone wonder if he still looks like that?

Its the Skipper's 30th today. Happy Birthday Deano! It was Waigo's birthday on 20th January

Cork was there, plus JWP too.

Lallana training fine in that You Tube video. No sign of the defenders so hard to see if Shaw ok. De Ridder back - couldnt even get a game for Bolton.

Unlikely seeing as our main link to Hooper has gone. We need Lambert more than the 6m, but if WHU did offer that much in the summer then it really goes to show how lacking in inspiration their transfer policy is.

Reckon we will win.

Que?

Not suprised Dig Dig has gone quiet. Terrible thread.

Next thing someone will post a thread saying we miss Chaplow's 'bite' in midfield. We really do have some loonies in our fanbase. Lee is poor. Sharp is never in Forest's starting XI but all of a sudden they are saviours.

Duncan? I'm Charlie.

There are still quite a few PR plants for the old regime knocking around and sniping because they are now just a "supporter".

Sounds like a Diary mate?

I don't buy this "Top Trumps" argument that high pressing only beats attacking teams, long ball beats high pressing, attacking teams beat long ball etc - its not true. In any game you can play well, badly, ok - we werent good on Saturday and in the Prem that often means you lose as other teams have good individuals. It doesn't suggest there are fundamental issues - especially when two games previously you play fantastically and beat a team like Man City. Plus - time and time over the last few years when have we struggled to break down stubborn defences? Last season most teams came to SMS for a point and got beat...

Nobody was worried about overtraining a couple of weeks ago.

We lost on Saturday because we didnt do well enough at Pochettino's Plan A. Versus Norwich we will go with his Plan A and hopefully will play better, like against United, City, Wigan 2nd half. A defeat doesnt mean you change the principles you instill into the players everyday.

Its pursuit Tony. Spelling has never been up to much. Totally agree though. As Vince said the other day, give me League One and Neal Trotman any day. Hows the old lady Dorothy?

Am seething Rod. Two quid to park my car at the U21 game at SMS tonight. I remember the days they would send a Steward to park for me and let me into the boardroom for a schmooze before kick off. Times have changed Rod. Derek sends his regards.

Rod, check your PMs. Had an interesting conversation with Mike at the game on Saturday.

He did look like he positioned himself well though Davie, and had a calm authority about himself.

You forgot the Forum elders who are only refered to by their real first name. They don't post overly often but when they do everyone replies saying they are 'spot on' etc.

He hasnt really come back too soon though has he? Was certainly eased back into it.

Move on mate.

The decision to get rid of Adkins or appoint Pochettino was never going to be assessed after 6 games. We didnt play well today but are in a decent position. Good game next Sat vs Norwich so we move onto the next one.

Shaw not 100%, otherwise its our strongest lineup.

Could you also hit the back boards of the Northam to this tune? If so, we have a winner.
