    That's the fans, let's hope the team can grow some.

    Joe Tessem already saying Saints giving Lester too much space. It’s what we do.

    Already 61% possession for Lester.

    Doh! I wondered where everyone else was. Billy no mates, ranting to the moon, nobody listening. Nothing new there, then.

    First time ever that every Saturday PL game has been a home win. Wonder what the odds against that were?

    The home side has won 47.6% of matches this season. Applying those general odds to 7 matches gives you about a 1 in 180 chance.

    Do you think that he can squeeze his horse up the inside, against the rails? This is an exciting race!

    Forest v Everton draw? Forest are only 4 pts ahead of us and the more teams that stay involved the better.

    Without a doubt a draw is the best result for us.

    Probably true that a draw would suit us better in the long term, but a defeat for Everton by two goals or more and we'll be above them on goal difference/goals scored (unless it's 7-5 to Forest)

    It's interesting that West Ham only have one more PL game this month, despite the month only being five days old. Whereas we, for example, still have three more PL matches this month.

    Their game vs Man City has been postponed because of the FA Cup. Their early-season postponed game vs Newcastle couldn't be rearranged for this month because of their European matches. And like everyone, they have the final weekend of the month off due to the international break.

    Even as it currently stands, they're looking at playing 12 matches in April and May (all PL). But it could be as many as 16, if they manage to get to the SFs of the Conference League. That would be huge number of matches to play in two months. It's not often that a side battling against relegation has to cope with fixture congestion caused by playing in Europe.

    Such a lazy (but typical) tackle from Shelvey

    Yes, a draw that somehow feels like a defeat ... for both teams!
