SA.
Or need QPR and Bristol to do us a favour on Saturday and take points off Millwall and Swansea.
Would be nice if we could go into Barnsley game knowing we were already there.
If QPR do beat Millwall, at least Warburton can honestly say he got Forest into the play offs!!! :D

We are there now. I feared the worst but we are made of stronger stuff under Sabri. I think this and derby were our best performances for the season. In times past it would have got to us but Sabri has instilled a mentality into the the side. I’m so pleased for Sami and jenkinson was excellent. We are there. Hopefully one of millwall and swans drop points Saturday and we can put minutes into the legs of the squad over 2 games. Fulham will rest players but Brentford and West Brom can’t. Tactical 6th place????

Last night's game got me thinking following one of the worst display of officiating I have seen since Roger Milford (18.5.91.....?). IF we get into the pray offs and IF we went up, do we really need the misery of Epl refs? The best of these (?) is Mike Dean - anyone remember Villa at home last year?????
I would hope that Rob Jones would be in charge on any games involving Forest in the lottery. Any thoughts?

Seems they’re starting to form a queue in questioning our promotion chances.
First LeTissier & now Warnock.
Hope Sabri is saving these quotes to stick on the dressing room wall.

Everything goes out of the window, the play offs are a different ball game to what we see week in week out in the league.
Le Tissier and Warnock really should know better.

Colin will stick the knife in whenever he can when it comes to Forest. He hates us as much as we hate him!!

Disagree with you about Colin. He may try to wind us up like he does all opposition teams but he is normally very respectful about Forest in general. Always get the feeling we are one club he dearly wants To manage but it never worked out although came close under Fawaz.
However the more “experts” that slag off our chances the better in my view.

We're really hard to beat and can play when Sabri loosens the shackles. Pundits just dont see it. Coaches who know what the game's about, like mick McCarthy as a recent example, do.

It seems a bit unfair that the winner of 4th V 5th will have one days less rest than the 3rd V 6th winner. I know this is how it usually works because Sky are covering it etc etc, but this isn't a normal time and with £120M at stake for the winner, there should be no advantages to either finalist! They couldve played both matches on the same day, one early, one late KO
