Big game tomorrow. As long as we win and Forest lose to Liverpool and Spurs to Arsenal, then we have given ourselves a serious chance, something few thought possible.
I'd take a dour 1-0 win.

Totally agree brooking. Watching forest, the are playing well (new manager bounce maybe), but I fancy them to get a result and everyone here (i live in Nottingham) feels pretty confident aswell.
Spurs on the other hand have problems with injuries.
If we can beat Bournemouth it reduces the gap to spurs to 2 points and spurs v forest in 2 weeks.
I still think brighton or palace will get dragged into it somewhere, but first, we must beat Bournemouth

I think it will be a decent game today. Hopefully we will keep a similar style of play in our last few league matches, I won’t give a score line and put the bock on them but i'm hopeful we can get the win. It’s important to look at other games but in reality need to stop worrying about that and just concentrate on how we are doing.
The good thing is as Mac said our recent upturn in form means other teams are being dragged into the battle for the drop.

Seems to me it’s always him, is it possible that the guy instigates stuff and brings it on himself, don’t get me wrong if it is indeed a racial slur then I’m 1000% against it, but let’s be real he’s not the money honest player and he has some massively rubbishhouse tactics for time wasting and stuff.

He has a platform which maybe others don't and he's willing to push for change which is admirable. Maybe the fact that it interrupts the game spoils the spectacle but don't blame him for that, blame the racist.
Have no problem with him being criticised for the Bruno type antics but that is as common in elite level players as white people not understanding the gravity of targeting someone for the colour of their skin.

I don’t want to get drawn into the actual incident as I didn’t see it. And maybe he does invite trouble, I don’t know enough about him. But IMO these sort of things are far worse in southern and Eastern Europe than in Northern and Western Europe. I remember going to games in the 70s where hearing monkey noises and players being openly called black @@@@@ was not uncommon . I think the attitude on the pitch can lead back to the fans and I wouldn’t want to see that return if it did I would stop going.
Because I thought it was horrible then as now.
I went to an event organised by ‘the West Ham way’ a few years back and the guest speaker was Anton Ferdinand and he was answering questions and he was asked about the John Terry incident when playing for QPR and you could see it deeply upset him as he was virtually in tears and maybe as a white person i don’t understand how no matter what you do you will only be defined by the colour of your skin.

Any old Irish/ Hammer-D, you both have very good points and I was being short sighted and very ignorant of the situation, so I really apologise to people I may have offended!
I have just got so angry over the years with players that I feel are cheating in so many situations on the field of play in one way or another! The officials have a difficult enough job to do as it is? I still don’t think there’s anything wrong in words, it’s banter in my view, even if it’s offensive to somebody, laugh at them and shrug it off, they will soon get fed up with doing it? ⚒⚒⚒

Hi Chelmsford you have not offended me in the slightest mate. I’m a red-head and ginger-ism is the only ism still legal 🤣 so it’s all water off a ducks back to me. I was just trying to see why it might be felt by someone else (which is tricky) I think if you had a fat black bloke who wears glasses he wouldn’t be called 4 eyes or fatty he would have something else thrown at him, and it probably drags you down.

If we go by form; the quarter finals will be: ourselves, Man City, Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool, Leeds, Sunderland, Fulham. If we get a home draw, assuming we beat Brentford, I don't fear anyone apart from City or Arsenal.

Can go far into this cup. Normally would be happy to but priority has to be staying in the prem?
Knowing our luck we go on to the final, lose and also get relegated on goal difference 🫣

It’s looking like Brentford who won’t be easy, but definitely beatable as long as he doesn’t pick the same side as Saturday!
I think Wigan won it the year they dropped

IM only preaching to the converted in. Most cases
But if we are fortunate enough to stay in the premiership
A boat load of these secondary players need to be shifted out
Some people like Kante, Orford having watched them Several times, I fail to see, the talent here
I always said we had a poor squad , that was obvious, But honestly, didn't realise just how poor it was
Now I do

On the positive side, we won with a very poor display. Midfield couldn't hold on to the ball amd string any passes together, the play at the back was too slow and too many side to side passes, but, in the past we would have slipped up today. Through simple hard work we scraped through.
Let's move on and look forward to Bournemouth where we can't play any worse

You are probably right. We all know the squad is nowhere near deep enough. But as others have stated should we really be playing 5 at the back against a 3rd tier team in relegation trouble.
We have seen how poor the main team are in that formation we constantly struggle to get the team attacking in numbers when playing in that formation.
If you Arne going to use that formation then it should be used as a 3 at the back and the wing backs play as wingers. But from what I heard on the radio we were mainly camped in our own half

Squad is bad we all know that, the main thing today was not picking up any injuries. We didn't get out of second gear the first half, upped it a bit in the second. A lot of these players have never played with eachother before either. Orford everytime I've seen him looks head and shoulders above most at youth level.
