Losing twice to teams like Everton is exactly why we're going down.

Doucoure running around like he's wearing wellies, they also seem to be on the wrong feet when he tries to control or pass the ball.

Where I disagree with Doug above is that their strength is in their, well, strength. They defend solidly and won at the Turf due to a menace of a header where the guy got miles off the ground not dissimilar to how Adebayo outmuscled Young in this game.

These two are effective at what they do, even though we play better football. Good luck to them, but it isn’t for me, not any more.

Watching these two teams is just the biggest contrast to our style now. Almost like two different sports.

Two absolute dross sides, not an ounce of passing football between them. I don’t care if they manage to Shitehouse a few more points than us, I’m just glad I don’t have to watch this 1960s rubbish week in week out.

Everton needing points would be far more ‘at it’ than they are tonight.

They don’t look like they’ve got another goal in them. The longer it goes on like this, I can see Luton grabbing a late winner.

Agree entirely.

They’ve been dreadful, bar some good last ditch defending.

Listening to this at work on Talksport. A very excitable commentator. Doing my nut in. Get the feeling he's making this game seem more exciting than it is.

We - England - won the world cup.in the 1960's. The pitches then were generally awful. But there were some good players around. England have won what since? I guess you prefer this tippy happy dross we are subjected to today by teams like us who aren't good enough to.pkay it in the league we are in. In fact in any league it is just boring.

Unlikely. Forest will beat Sheff Utd tomorrow you’d expect, which will put them 3 points clear and with a superior goal difference. Luton would then probably need to win their last two and even then wouldn’t be guaranteed to stay up.

They’ve failed to beat an Everton side with little to play for tonight and that’s now just 1 win in 15 games.

Forest are the very clear favourites to stay up.

Good point. In fact, I wonder if Luton have had the heads up about any potential point reinstatement by the way they sent their keeper up for a corner and risking an otherwise potentially valuable point.

Can't control Forest and their points appeal.

But win tomorrow and I think there's a good chance now we're ahead of Luton going into the last day. They're at West Ham next week which will be tough.

We just have to win tomorrow, tough as it will be. If we do, we'll have a chance
