I've snapped my cruciate ligament twice and there's no chance of seeing him before March at the very earliest. It's a miminum 7 months out.

Glad he is forcing his critics to eat their words. How Cleverley can get into the national squad and Delph can't sums up what a knob Hodgson is.

We need to get another centre half in January. Concrete Ron has improved immensly this season and despite both Baker and Clark also improving we'll be in trouble if he is out for any length of time. We lost all shape at the back once he went off.

Gave the ball away far too often tonight.

I'm confident the football will improve this season. Points on the board are the priority so I'd sacrifice decent football for a healthy points tally at this stage of the season in the expectation that the pressure is lifted and the style of play is easier on the eye.

NO THANKS. a pile of shit that isnt good enough for the Championship, id really question Lambert if we signed shit like him Ditto.

I don't dislike Albrighton but he's a limited footballer. I'd much rather push Bacuna forward and play Lowton at right back if we want better delivery to the forwards. If we want to progress as a team we need better players than Albrighton.

Me too. Hopefully at another club.

Couldn't disagree more. Decent player that has struggled with injuries over the last 12 months or so. His versatility alone warrants a place in the squad.

Not me. Fully behind him.

I think I'd go with this. I just missed out on the 81/82 seasons as I was only 8/9 years old. That 95/96 season was great. League Cup winners, finishing 4th and FA cup semi finalists. I'd also have to mention the 89/90 season under GT. We massively over achieved by finishing second and caused a right few upsets. I was 16 years old when we won the league so that season under Ron Saunders was a blast. I was lucky enough to hgave a season ticket and there were 4 of us that travelled to just about every game that season either on the coach or with one of our parents so I have so many memories including the last game at Highgury. The football under BFR was so easy on the eye and for a time the O'Neill era threatened to replicate that. The footballing landscape has changed now and to compare the Lerner reign to HDE's is irrelevant. In Doug's day it was always possible a club like Forest could gatecrash the party and win the league, now it's impossible without throwing tens of millions of pounds at it. For me I was far more frustrated under Ellis as we were arguably within touching distance of winning more honours but he refused to splash the cash whereas Lerner gambled and failed and now we're suffering the consequences of that.

Sums it up for me. We're not playing well but we're 11th with room for improvement. Anyone who thought or expects better in such a short time is either misguided or far too optimistic. The model PL is applying will take alot longer than 18 months to bear fruit.

Past his sell by date like the bulk of their team. RM will get the job but still expect an away victory next sunday.

1-2 Away victory with goals from CB and Bacuna.

Great left foot, will be a decent player. Too early to write him off.

Suffering from second season syndrome, not fully fit and appears frustrated with his own performances of late. As Lambert stated when the transfer saga blew up, he has the body of a man but maybe not the maturity of mind to accompany it. That's the crux of the issue for me - he knows he's below the high standards he set last year and is struggling to play his way through it hence the poor body language. You don't lose ability overnight and he will come good but maybe it's time to start Kozak and unleash the beast on a tiring defence rather than start him.

CC is beginning to fulfill his potential as a centre half. More cultured on the ball than either Vlaar or Baker but needs that type of player alongside him to compliment his game. Never a left back though!

I concur So do I

In a recent interview Lambert referred to having to strip the club right back before he could rebuild so I agree with the above. I recognise that we haven't made the progress that alot would've hoped for at this stage but as he said we are only 15/16 months into the process so I'm happy to be patient whilst he rebuilds in a more sustainable fashion rather than expect the short term success some might crave.

How many of those were Tonev's grass cutters and Sylla's efforts which were closer to the top of the Brummie than the goal? Not sure but stats show we had more attempts on target than the Disney club.

Well it is the pantomime season...

Yes we were abject first half but still managed more attempts on goal over 90 mins!

Just read through the comments having been at the game last night. Can't understand the fuss about not starting with Gabby, Delph and Andi, as HH states they were running out of steam before the final whistle which is why we couldn't press for the winner. First half Albion were quicker and sharper - there was no tempo to our play. Despite Tonev's pile driver, he was a passenger in midfield as he was static and allowed their players to run past him on several occassions. He's not ready for the intensity of a derby game. We desperately need our full backs fit as neither Clark or Baker can play there. Long had so much time to control what was a hoof ball from the back for his first goal whereas every time we had possession they were snapping at our feet. Overall pleased with a point after an awful first 20 mins. Albion are an average team and we'll finish above them at the end of the season.

I'll drink to that!

Ticket now gone !
