    Forest wasn't the first time that that happened.

    I agree we need a CB but don't think we will go for one just now as opposed to in the summer. Not based on any inside knowledge. Just my gut reaction.

    judging by the silence in the gallowgate for Forest many have already rested themselves. Or at least their voices.

    You just said it was probably because they saw what happened in the forest game and yeah like I say they don't make signings on the back of one game.

    The money doesn't appear to be there at the moment.

    I don't understand why anyone goes to just sit there like zombies. It's partly their fault for not creating the right atmosphere for the players. There's plenty can't get in the place that would make some noise.

    As an example.

    And it's not rocket science to realise we no longer buy players based on one game.

    And that's my reading of why I don't think we will go big in this window.

    I agree here. Too many tourists who just don’t engage.

    True. You could tell that I wasn't in the Gallowgate End the other day.

    I can see your ego was impacted with this one. It isn't rocket science identifying that.

    Good morning folders let's just enjoy the festive period without any hysteria please.

    I agree.

    If that's your definition of hysteria then you ain't been reading the Match Day threads.

    It's like a religious rivalry mate.

    Given the way the defence played in front of him, I'm not surprised

    It's almost guaranteed he will start if he's fit. I think Eddie will be thinking he needs the experienced head in there against Salah / Liverpool. I don't agree mind you, I'd play Tino.

    Yep, loyalty, experience and commitment will always come first in a Howe team.

    We've won once away in the Premier League against them in 93/94.

    The only good thing Graeme Souness ever did for us was before he was manager.

    I must say I've not seen anything to suggest Tino isn't anything but fully committed.

    He’s a fantastic prospect isn’t he.

    I would play him over BDB every day of the week.


    But if I did he would be knackered.
