Not a negative post as i do feel we have been punching above our weight for a while now and riding our luck. But you have to go with that as Lady Luck is a cruel mistress. I would hope that with all the surprises and absolute class of Chris Wood that we can have a strong run in. personally you can keep the euro conference garbage equivalent to the
Johnsons paint trophy. We don't need that distraction next season. The shame of our recent defeats and tough encounter at Exeter is our inability to deal with or cut out crosses. I mentioned this a few weeks ago that for big lads, particularly milenkovic, he and Murillo get caught in no mans land. No more illustrated than by the liverpool goal against us. Sells has been outstanding this season but one area that seems his Achilles heel is coming for crosses or is it a misunderstanding with the zonal responsibilities of our big defenders?
I don't watch as much as many of the chaps on here do but I find MGW frustrating. He tries the imposible flicks and and through balls where keeping posession in these areas would be more beneficial to the team. When he does the simple things with his drive and vision he is one hell of a player. I think he simply needs to calm down. We may well be a surprise package this year but dealing with these issues could well have earned us the odd more crucial points. Keep up the good work lads.

Can't agree on not wanting to play in the europa or conference leagues next season. We've finished 17th the last two years, finishing top 7 would be a fantastic achievement. I actually think we'd have a realistic chance of semi finals at least.

I agree with Rutland. Champions league or not interested in Kazakhstan on a Thursday night!

Asian countries like Kazakhstan and dirty Israel shouldn't be allowed to play in European competitions.

Do Israel play dirty then? I've never really paid attention to their tackles from behind and other dastardly tactics.
I'll have to take your word that they're a dirty team. Wonder how many red cards they get.

If we qualified for the conference. We would be among the favourites to win it.
A great chance to get our first trophy since 1990.
I for one would be delighted to be in it.

Polly. our history isn't squeeky clean when it comes to war atrocities. Remind me who invented concentration camps. football site mate, not a format for any type of bigoted remark, because that's what it is.

The Spanish effectively invented concentration camps.

That said, I would take a top 10 finish considering we've had 2 consecutive relegation battles.

Personally I'd rather avoid the bight lights of Thursday night football unless we sign 11 players in the summer as we just don't have the depth in our squad but i'd like to think if we got into the champions league we would strengthen and add numbers in all departments.

Your wrong pollard, we British had camps in south Africa in the boar war. Get the facts right and as the man said this is a football site.

In that case winter we will never make it we need to be in competitions like this to attract better players Mr marankis other team Olympiacos lifted the uefa cup not with 11 great players though. so why can't we what a feeling for forest fans that would be but hey ho we need to wait because we won't be good enough mind boggles.

Id take Europa league but not conference. If we win the Europa, we would get in to the champions league the year after. Also who doesn't want to see European nights at the city ground.
