Great goal! Shame we can't defend

Utd, Ipswich and Bournemouth next in the league. Got to be targeting 4-6 points from that or we'll be cut adrift.

Not sure what our defence is doing today. Off the pace, taking risks at the back. Stephens not the only one, but how did he become first choice when he wasn't even first choice last season.

This is going to be a big loss. Can't see Brentford holding back.

Bottom of the table. Relegation certain. Unless we change this suicidal tactics.

Only going one way this unfortunately.

Twice in a row there Brentford were on the counter and almost break through.

Total miskick AA. Should be 1-1

Half the game to go but you've got to say it's been coming. Looking like three defeats in three.

Passing around at the back working out well then...

Aribo has been carrying the ball and mixing up the few attacks we have. Smallbone just can't keep up.

3-4 chances Brentford have had now that should have been goals.

Weak in the middle again. THB still off the boil.

I guess I am the only one who doesn't think the starting lineup is a problem. All players mentioned are on the bench after playing midweek. Good options to have to bring on.

Already out injured due to a facial injury that looks like it'll need some serious stitching.

Probably going to be McCarthy in goal tomorrow then?

Would be amazing and a great signing for us. But surely we'd need to loan/sell Aribo or Smallbone first.

Hopefully being dropped from the England squad today won't have a detrimental effect on his decision.

I'd give Wood and Edwards a break. Obviously lacking match sharpness.

No, probably already injured!

We found our new striker!

Bella-Ketchup on the bench I see. No Tall Paul though.

Ah.. never underestimate Bazunus ability to let the ball fly through his paper hands or just not quite get there to save a shot.

Getting Ings back strikes me as a bad move even for free (and probably on huge wages). 32 year old who scored 4 goals in 50 or so appearances for his last club who deem him surplus. Would he really recapture his form and score the goals we need? It seems doubtful.

Whilst we might think we should compete with Forest, the relative values of the squad and the kind of money they've spent is miles away from us. As it will be for most of the rest of the teams here in the Prem. Back to trying to punch above our financial weight.
