His objectives? It would make no sense whatsoever for him to want anything other than promotion.

He's done a good job convincing me the opposite. He wants another 3 years in the comfort zone

If we went up hed either get a considerable pay rise here or be in a position to get a much better contract elsewhere.

Just been going through permutations with a Sheff Utd fan and both agree the benchmark for the play offs is going to be 75 slightly higher than normal both agree realisticlly theres only 2 places up for grabs between luton sheff Utd Rovers Boro and Millwall

We won’t be in contention. Once you accept that life becomes more bearable. We had our chance and blew it in spectacular fashion.

Bloody hell, how are Huddersfield 3rd? They're crap. 

This league is terrible. 

Luton too? It's heart breaking how we are right royally fooking this up!!!

Fixtures below for anyone still holding on to a bit of hope....
I agree with a post above that 75 points feels like a safe number (means Rovers need to win 4 out of 5!) - 6 points at Easter is absolute paramount 

Though i'd say it's just 1 place from 3 in Luton, Boro and Rovers. With Forest, Huddersfield and Sheffield Utd making up 3rd-5th

That Sheffield United away match really was devastating. Missed penalty and a few sitters followed by a last minute winner for them. A 6 point swing there and it's a completely different story.

Fulham still have to play Luton and Sheffield Utd so lets hope their lot don't head to the beach early.

Amari'i Bell key to Luton's promotion hopes and Barry Douglas back-up to Lech Poznan's title chasing campaign in Poland. Those two Rovers rejects are doing ok for themselves - at the moment.

As deficient as they were for us, there's no doubt they were left exposed by our formation and tactics, with Brereton and others offering little defensive support on the flank.

Would you want either back at the Rovers ?

Luton 1 up

[simongarnerisgod]

luton are just a bunch of cloggers with a hyperactive **** as a manager,the ramshackle kenilworth road and it`s tiny dimensions give them a massive advantage at home,just hope forest can get back into it

[jim mk2]

Clutching at straws but if we are to get in the playoffs we need a Forest win or a draw

Bad start to the day

[Nuttall is lost]

Maybe Forest will choke and miss out on the playoffs.

No chance. We need two Forest goals or the season ends and that’s not me being over dramatic.

Bell at Luton is 10 times the player he was at Rovers.

If we win at Peterborough it is still game on.

Superb from Luton to hold on to a win against Forest. Real togetherness, team spirit, game management… and a little bit of luck.

It’s not been game on for 6 games now mate. 

[Hasta]

You really are up shit creek when you’re relying on Reading getting something away from home.

Season finished. Play the kids and certainly don’t let Nyambe, Lenihan or Rothwell play for the club again.

But do you agree or disagree with my statement, that if we win today we are still in the hunt ?
