I really don't fancy our chances today!
For a change that is.

Interesting line up in my view. PL seems determined to give Bright a good chance to rpove himself. similarly Ronan is on the bench

I think we really miss a player like Mcdonald to get some decent ball out to these attacking players. Evans is just not good enough in my opinion.

I still would like to know the real reason why we sold Macca Bradmore, as I agree he is a big loss to us. A fairly even start to the match so far. Bright shaping up quite well. Too many offsides by our forwards though

24 mins gone 0-0, only 1 shot so far which was an effort for wolves that was off target.

No, not a lot to report so far. Mancienne got a header in which went over the bar, but otherwise pretty even. Bright making a good impression. Price has been booked for an agricultural tackle

Out of the blue!! Commentators thought he wasn't 100% fit, but Costa then goals towards the byline and smashes in as right footed shot

Bright upended in the area by Mills, and the ref calls it as on the line!! Pretty typical of the refereeing we have experienced lately and by a ref who does PL matches sometimes

Carayol has caused us problem for Forest, but he's being taken off. Forest fans giving their team the bird regularly. Cav breaks away & puts it over the bar, Dicko & Costa furious that he hasn't passed it

Cav rounds the keeper and shoots wide, dicko unhappy that he did not pass.

I thought you'd gone home Badge!!
Costa makes the break, passes to Edwards, who sets up Cavaleiro for the goal.
Need to keep going forward now rather than the usual sitting deep

I think Ronan must have replaced Costa, who took a bit of a knock earlier

This match was dreary as hell in the first half and had a draw written all over it, but our Portuguese contingent Costa & Cav stepped up to give us a hugely valuable win and a clean sheet. Just a shame Dicko didn't get on the goal sheet too. Perhaps we can look forward to playing Bristol City at home on Boxing day now?

a good home win on boxing day and the pressure will lift and give us a chance to do something this season.
We are only 3 points behind villa despite Steve Bruce working wonders.

Great win - such an important win. 5 point gap now - which in relegation form speak is 5 matches to catch up!
