Will we blow up before half time as Andy Pandy puts out the same team again.
Is any one interested anymore?
Less than 8 hrs to go and no one has posted a match thread!

It’s almost overwhelmingly depressing and underwhelming in terms of expectations. We botched Luton, which turned Leeds into a must win game, which we botched thru bad match management. Players have to be knackered - physically and mentally.

The only positives for me: Woody will be replaced by Mulder (hopefully), Tate appears to be more actively involved on the touch line ... at least he’s been there done that. Although Tate’s footballing intellect is still something of an unknown, can he possibly be any worse than a person that looks and acts like a doped puppet.

Rather than prolonging the cost and agony of this season, we would have been better off if the League had called it at the stoppage and we could all had a nice break.

I think the Cardiff result last night knocked the stuffing out of us thanks to Mr Rooney whose mistake cost Derby the game. All Cardiff have to do now is match our results and they're home and hosed! And bear in mind that one of their remaining games is against Hull who took an 8-0 drubbing against Wigan last night. Not looking good for us at all.

To keep our hopes alive, we now have to beat Forest on their patch with a team whose tank is running on empty thanks to Cooper's disgraceful handling of his subs. Honestly, he's been so inept, if I didn't know better, I'd swear he's sabotaged our efforts deliberately he's been that bad. I'm sure that's not the case but it almost feels that way.

As for the game, I don't think our tired team has a chance of winning, a draw being a decent result for us in the circumstances. I hope the Liberty hierarchy are proud of themselves for dropping an almighty bollock with their choice of manager. Could there have been a more stupid decision? I think not! Our fans deserve far better in terms of manager and owners who are equally useless.

I hate to be pointing this out ... but I posted bluntly at the time of his signing that this was a colossal mistake. Andy Pandy flirted with the possibility of me having to eat crow as a result of August. But, nobody can fool all people all of the time, and that time arrived with a thud in the resumption in September and it has never, nor will it ever, be displaced. Andy Pandy is crap. His only opportunity for success is to be declared the absolute worst of all time .... I haven’t been appointed manager yet so he could still lose out on that.

All forums should post a personal letter to Birch demanding he rectifies the managerial situation, on the grounds that he is totally responsible for it. Since appointing this clown he has disappeared, totally the opposite to his statement " I will keep the fans informed on a regular basis ". He employed someone who has had some success with a bunch of school kids to make a serious attempt at Premiership promotion. Since that appointment he (Birch) has crawled under a stone, Leon who aided and abetted his choice has walked, and Curt also has gone into hiding. I think the situation speaks for itself.

Of course. This is a strange league and everything is possible. Though I doubt we can beat Forrest today. After all, we haven't beaten a top ten team since August. Even when we defeted Cardiff at the Liberty they were not in the top ten.

I fear the next transfer window. I think this team will be ripped apart and we won't have a solid squad like this season.

In retrospect it took Andy Pandy 40 games or so to figure out a system (3 + 2 wing backs) that somewhat works for us and then only by accident because Bidwell, Rodon, and VdH were not available, those that were are kids (Cabango and Guehi), and we have 3 fullbacks available. WTF does he do with all the match video and practice that they do.

Cabango is rested for VdH. Mulder starts in place of Woody as expected. Garrick on the bench. Cabango is our only defender on the bench.

Otherwise, the same tired horse. Let's hope they've been pounding down the Red Bull on the way to the stadium.

Fatigue not withstanding a strong team.

Mulder in I thought that might be the case. Is Woodman done? Crojack will like that. One positive I can think of is that we're still fighting for a playoff chance with 3 fixtures remaining.
