Honestly, I don’t think we can predict anything with any certainty except all the teams including us will lose games before the season ends.

It would be innteresting to know how the Europe coefficients are going.
Will the English get an extra slot like this season?
Arse still in CL.
Forest & Villa still in Europa.
Palace still in the conference.
It may change the way Pool & Scum play if they are looking at Europe next season.

Welcome back, Thomas!
Exactly. If Forest lose at Sunderland, (possible), and we beat wolves, we are two points behind them and they still need to play United away etc
Forest are shit. They literally have nothing other than MGW scoring goals for them really. Let’s see if they can continue it
I think we need to wait and see.
I don't think of any team as sh!t, which is just lazy and dismissive phraseology in truth.
Nothing is decided as yet and it was just a shame Palace didn't beat West Ham last night.
I don't see any team in the PL rolling over for anyone else, but we are nearing the point of pointlessness for a few teams, starting with Wolves and to a degree now Palace, Fulham and Newcastle. Throw Burnley into that mix as well. Sadly Sunderland are also in that place of pointlessness, so Friday might be more about pride than hunger or necessity for the Rokerites.
Beat Wolves and we have the match from hell to observe.
Exactly. I can easily see Forest losing every away game there. And Bournemouth are a far better side who just beat Woolwich and Newcastle in their own stadium. Bournemouth haven’t lost in 12 games.
Sorry but Forest can easily lose all five of their next games. In fact I don’t think they’ll get more than another 1-3 points this season.
3 wins puts us on 40 points
I think Forest are better than some of you think
They're unbeaten in their last 5 and smashed us 3-0 at home.
I would walk over hot coals to have Anderson and MGW in our side.
They aren't going to collapse.

Is it possible you are over reacting?
Woah easy now. Lets not get all Thomas Frank about it
Yes, for the CL.
Only chance forest get dragged into it is if one of Anderson or MGW get injured. Its amazing how with all their games they've picked up so few injuries. If we had European games coming up, our squad would be down to 12 players within 3 or 4 games.
I was even looking at the west ham squad yesterday and they were only missing one player across their entire squad yesterday Fabianksi! And he's probably their third choice goalkeeper now too! Then you look at our scenario where we seem to be missing a minimum of 6 key players all season long and it has been double digits for about half the season. Something really needs to be done about our injury situation next season. Every second game we seem to lose a player to a long term injury! And we only have 1 game a week atm and still have by far the worst injury crisis in the league.
Anyway back to my original point. The only way forest get dragged back into this is if they pick up key injuries, then the extra european games become a nightmare and they won't have the squad to rotate smartly. But without injuries, they'll be fine. Like you said they are far too good to go down with the likes of Anderson and MGW.
Tend to agree on Forest not collapsing now. Of course we had the chance to apply pressure but didn't. They can see the safety tape and I don't think they will blow up. Sunderland might give them a game but they don't have anything orher than pride to play for.
I am not so sure on Gubbs-White or Anderson but they have played much better than any midfield duo we have had this season.
Just beat Wolves or match West Ham's result and it's going to be tight.
Murillo did his hamstring Sunday and Hudson Odoi out for the season but agree its really Gibbs White and Anderson we need to get crocked. Ditto West Ham with Summerville and Bowen.
I wouldn't be surprised if they beat Sunderland. I thought Sunderland were awful tbh. Another opportunity missed. They just got away with cheating by the ref. And our front 3 were useless on the day.
Why are sunderland in the point of nothingness? They are 2 points of chelsea who are 6th... they're fighting for Europe spots. they will also absolutely want to finish above Newcastle. Sunderland have lost 1 game all season at home...
Sunderland are fighting for Europe...
