I didn't watch the game, so these conclusions are drawn from reports and the radio (online) commentary:
1. We really miss Alex Mowatt. He seems to be the fulcrum of our midfield at the moment. 2. We really miss last season's Sam Byram. 3. We just don't have the quality in our squad to be in the top two, no matter who the manager is. We have too many past-it/never-were-it journeymen in the squad, which has massively restricted McDermott's ability to change formations/bring new players in. Cheers!

I expected Forest to beat us with moderate ease and in the end they were marginally better. We are the league's great pretenders at the moment with a position that is not in keeping with our performances. At least today it was transparent for all to see. No names in particular, but we appear to have little idea going forward and very predictable (as Brian Mc mentioned recently) We look more comfortable when not in possession and end up losing possession with a hoof - it's almost embrassing. Either we truly lack skilfull players with vision or that's the way they are told to play. We get rushed off the ball too easily and can be contained by many teams. How we've won so many this season is a mystery. When the transfer window opens soon, what's the chance of Ross M being on his way? All in all, depressing. We have found our home in this division for now so all this "Being where we need to be" talk is nonsense. We are where we need to be. No place like home!
