Our away form is gash, but hopefully we have enough to beat these twats.

Unless Cooper drastically alters his tactics, a 2-0 to Leeds. Forest have the second worst GD/A in the league. Second from bottom after tomorrows match unless Cooper alters - big time. I honestly feel that Cooper will be sacked if back in the relegation zone on Tuesday night. Despondent I know, but can anyone truthfully see Cooper making the required changes to his tactics?.

I'll go 1-1, we played well for the majority of the Wolves game so hopefully that will lead to some confidence. Awoniyi to start please
I know he's been ruled out, but this is the type of game we're crying out for Ryan Yates in. He's been a huge miss recently

We would all love a win but Leeds are in the same position as we are and will be just as desperate for points. I think another draw is on the cards.

Should he be scoring goals as well from the chances that are created? We should have been 3-0 up before Wolves scored on Saturday. Probably one of our most consistent performances of the season. He doesn't need to change tactics. Players need to convert chances.

He doesn't need to change tactics. Players need to convert chances. 'Should he'? I imagine you meant 'we'. Yes, Forest players should be scoring from chances created, but they aren't able to or are not doing so. I agree, Forest should have been 3-0 up, at least, but we weren't. I can't agree with you on the wolves game being one of our most consistent performances. Consistent means regularly and there has been no consistency where playing well and winning games are concerned. Playing poorly and losing, then you would have a case regarding consistency. Tactics really do need to change. Coopers approach to games has been far too defensive and sitting back on a 1-0 has been his weakness. In cases as that, other teams will be altered to a more attack/chase/pressurise tactic by their manager. Coopers sitting back tactics fail and he really ought to understand by now, how to effectively counteract tactical alterations by other teams. He has not shown, to me, that he is capable of that.

No, I was being sarcastic, if everyone was doing their job then this wouldn't be a problem. We'll have to just disagree I think. We should have won comfortably on Saturday and I think the blame for that rests mostly on the poor decision making on the pitch (IMO). As for tonight, god only knows what's going to happen. There's no reason to suggest we'll do anything other than lose given our away form. Can always hope though.

Cooper was asked by one player on how the throw in must be taken as he wanted to chuck one in long into the box. That Cooper needs to give permission for something so trivial, shows to me that the players are given instruction on how to do everything, little or not. Will see tonight, but Cooper, if he does not alter tactics and come away with a win.. has to sacked.

Mail suggesting Vieira would replace him, not sure that’s any better if he is sacked. Every club below us has sacked their manager this season, I’m sure not all of them will finish above us. Too close to the end of the season now. Stick with

Navas didn't look too clever for the equaliser. All Leeds now, we need half time to come!

Done nothing but sit back, give the ball away, running around like headless chickens and atrocious defending.

2-1
Need a big 2nd half. This could be it for Cooper. We've been undefensibly poor.
I'd take Frueler and Toffolo off at half time for Lodi and Awoniyi, need to do something different!

Well it pains me to say it but... I think this could be the nail in the coffin to our season and unfortunately cooper.
Bar the first 10 mins basically up until the goal all we have done is lump the ball aimlessly down the pitch for them to have it and attack us again. They are tearing us to shreds down the flanks. Navas totally to blame for the equaliser and numerous times we have let Harrison and sinisterra just run at us from the edge of the box and we have been backing off and backing off.
The one time we got in their box with any purpose, mangala put a composed finish into the corner. Since that moment is has been all Leeds. We don't look like we have any ideas, their doesn't seem to be much of a game plan as we are just booting the ball down the pitch and for 35 mins of that half Leeds were camped in our half. Yet again we are massively losing the midfield battle.
They say things can turn quickly in football, but we just done seem able to change anything. Leeds are properly dominating us, maybe we just aren't good enough to stay up and deserve to go down. In all honesty are we one of the worst 3 teams in the league? Yes we are.
Again I will be cheering us on in the second half with blind optimism but it looks like our fate has been sealed and I can't see Mr marinakis being happy after a defeat tonight.

We're looking desperate. The manager, the tactics, the substitutions, and so the players.
I think Cooper might have to go. In this situation you need an experienced manager who can instill some confidence and self belief in a squad that should on paper be higher up the table. He's done a fantastic job but maybe this was just a bridge-across-the-Trent too far.

Well not looking good. Don’t know whether a new manager is the answer now given the run of games left.
