Lucky Blackwell??

[Casper]

We definitely got the rub of the green in our last 4 matches, so will Blackies luck hold out tonight? Was it luck, or did we just do enough to get the points? Are we a genuine promotion team or are we an average championship side? I've got a feeling, under Blackwell, we are the latter, but tonight will be a very good indicator.

In theory we should be on a high and raring to go against a Forest side also in very good form. This Forest side remind me very much of the Forest side we went into battle with in the fantastic but ultimately horrible 2002/3 season. We should be relishing going head to head against them and showing what we are made of. We have so far fallen short whenever we have played other top sides (have we beaten any of the current top 6 yet?)
Are we good enough? Tonight i think we will see.

Tonight will prove whether or not we are good enough.

Tonight will prove whether or not we are good enough.

The rest of the season will prove whether or not we are good enough, not a particular ever changing fixture

Yep, Watford! ;-)

Yep, Watford! ;-)

Weren't Watford the division's worst team according to Len?

Whatever... the league is so close, and the teams (generally) so average, that a lucky incident is often what swings a game.

We do well to remember that when we're being robbed (Newcastle), or we're doing the robbery (Plymouth).

Luck is a very over used word. We were fortunate to get the three points against Peterborough, the win at Ashton gate was late but all three goals were good ones and at Plymouth, the entire team battled the conditions and a wounded Argyle and showed some of the determination to win that used to be a mark of Warnocks teams.
