How would you feel if Forest won the league and could it happen?

[don_danbury]

i cant take them seriously as title contenders yet, just like i didnt take us seriously as title contenders when we were where they are in 2019/2020 or 2020/2021

Alot of our lot saying it wont and can't happen just like everyone wrote us off🤣

 

If they somehow do win it then good on them it would be a monumental  achievement to beat Arsenal, Liverpool  and moneybags City.

 

Hot alot of Forest colleagues so I hope it dont happen but I think even getting into the Champions league is fecking mental for them.

 

 

 

Exactly.

FWIW I don't live in the East Midlands any more and don't know any Forest fans, I'd probably be quite happy someone else has won the league. But then again I wouldn't have to put up with the gloating.

Forest are a very well organised team with 2 excellent no-nonsense centre halfs & quality players in attack. They also have an excellent manager.

The upsetting thing is, that was & still should be us but sadly we are now light years behind them & it will take us light years, if ever,  to get back to that sort of level

[Wymsey]

It'd be a shock, but wouldn't be one of the best historic sporting stories.

 

Clough senior might have agreed..

They were pretty much exactly where we are now twelve months ago.

 

Even down to catastrophic financial mismanagement and half a season of Cooperball.

Life's a lot easier when Man City win it as I don't know too many of their fans , although the ones I do, are proper fans and have seen the shit.

London , Utd and Liverpool supporters are pretty annoying and most are plastic. 

Forest?

Always hated them and always will.

I don't think they'll win it , but I think they'll get top 4.

A very well organised and effective side and I'm very jealous of where they are and where we are

They spent £35m alone on Elliot Anderson….not comparable in the slightest.

It was £15m. Been widely reported since. £10m cheaper than Skipp.

It won't but I couldn't really care less, probably not being from Leicestershire helps.

[adejo92]

Absolutely no way will they win the league.

 

Wouldn't bother me if they get in to Europe, they deserve it.

 

Got far too much dislike for my own club at the minute to even think about disliking a rival!!

[Ashley]

No. No it won't happen.

That aside, they haven't done that well against the teams around them. 

 

Arsenal (A) L3-0

Man City (A) L3-0

Newcastle (H) L3-1

Chelsea (A) D1-1

 

So 4 points from 15 against the rest of the top six. It leaves very little room for manoeuvre if those teams either maintain decent form, with only Liverpool and Arsenal not really having blips so far, or Forest start dropping points elsewhere. 

[splinterdream]

they'll get top 4 and it'll be horrible, it only seems like yesterday when i was suggesting to my forest supporting brother-in-law they should look at some of our deadwood

[AKCJ]

Btw, those panicking and screeching about what they won't do sound just like Forest fans giving it "It won't be as impressive as winning the European cup back to back".

 

Whatever will be will be. Personally couldn't give a single **** about what they do as long as we stay up and get our own house in order.

Yup it's the same way I also feel, I'm so p*used off with the way Leicester's board have run the club that I can't be asked to say hateful things to them because they are doing well

[The boy Linacre]

It’s possible and would be annoying BUT it’s really competitive in there with Arsenal, Manc if the come back to form, Newcastle, perhaps Chelsea will come again, Villa, think they will be 4th or 5th which will be ECL

Liverpool are very good & deep, the gap needs bridging.

When we won everybody else was primarily off it, Liverpool Aren’t

Can't see it happening unless Liverpool come off the rails. But they're playing some bledy good football that's for sure.

It's incredibly unforgiving. Not doing all that well against the teams around them (they have four from 15 against the top six, so that win at Liverpool masks a poor record against the best sides), could be an issue.

 

We lost twice to Arsenal and drew twice with Manchester United in our league winning season, but also got four points each against Spurs, Southampton and Manchester City. 

 

In other words, we got 14 from 30. They're on course to get 8 from 30 if they replicate the first half of the season, leaving no wriggle room at all for runs of form by their rivals or wobbles against lower teams.

They defend as though their lives depend on it. They attack as though they actually enjoy football,  - remember what that feels like? Will they win the league? Highly unlikely. Will they get CL? Quite possibly. Good luck to them if they do. Would rather them than the usual criminals.

They turn up half regularly, no longer bloody working.

[dannythefox]

Fair play if they won the league, they’ll do very well to finish top 5 though.

[grth2004]

On Tallk Sport today on White and Jordan they had a few Forest fans phone in but the 2 I heard just tried to put our title win down and they were saying how they were such a big club they should be there anyway in so many words. 
I live in Nottingham so I was up for them until I hear there big heads tallk.
