    And a big favour from Huddersfield - never expected them to get a draw at Luton with ten men...

    Ominous performance from Napoli in Amsterdam - 6-1 winners against Ajax.

    Blackburn miss an injury time penalty to draw level with Cardiff.

    All go in the Championship!

    A few wins on the bounce and you can really move up the table!

    Was a bad penalty and Cardiff probably deserved to win but they did actually score in the penalty incident but the ref blew very quickly so could say he made an error there ?

    Steve Cooper signed a new contract at Forest and of course people are trying to compare them to us by saying isn't it nice to see a club stick with someone.

    But I wonder how long he will really last if Forest keep losing badly or at home..

    Probably only haven't sacked him as they know there would be a fans backlash whereas a lot of our fans wanted *Munoz gone - or in some places never appointed in the first place.

    *Kind of what makes me laugh a bit with the current outrage at the Pozzos in terms of sackings as I think the same people wanted various previous managers out anyway.

    In my eyes, the coaching credentials of anyone prepared to pay £20 million for Dennis are questionable - but new contract or not, it remains to be seen how long he will last. The EPL is a cut-throat business.

    Thing is not sure he had much say say in the 22 players they brought in.

    Good point - let’s see what happens if Forest keep losing badly .

    Feels more like a PR move to appease fans .

    Or to stop Southampton from poaching him before they find his replacement during the World Cup

    A good game down at the Bush. At this moment in time I think both sides would give us a very hard time.

    I didn't watch that game, but did watch Scotland's World Cup qualifier against Austria the night before. One of the Scots, Caroline Weir, is apparently making a name for herself playing for Real Madrid, but didn't overly impress. Mind you, it was cold and teeming down in Glasgow - not something she would regularly encounter in Madrid. If they manage to beat Ireland on Tuesday and qualify, I can't see them progressing too much further.

    So everyone on Sky Sports News keeps telling me - can't turn it on now without someone raving about them. I suppose it makes a change from the two on Transfer Talk rabbiting on about who Man City should sign and why...
