UpThePrem All i ask is for the players to make a big effort and give the fans something to get behind. If the result isn't positive then at least they've tried.


Yes please.......

Good luck Nigel & Andy - we're all counting on you.

Abject and horrific FAIL against S8nts and I know we are complete and utter horse-mince, but is it too much to ask that we at least scrape a draw at home against useless, horrible QPR in front of a live SKY audience and releg8 them (along with ourselves)?

Nigel, if you're reading m8, we'll probably have a better chance if you don't play two right backs simultaneously and perhaps drop Karacan and Blackman. Also, feel free to use some substitutes at any stage :!:

All I ask is that we don't get beat by QPR. That's all. If we get beat by QPR this will officially be the worst season ever. Just don't lose one game.

Errrrrrrrrrrrrrm nope. Kelly has been steady enough since signing but IMHO his worst games have come recently when playing out of position at left back. Rubbish Shorey and Harte all you like, fact is their set piece delivery > anyone else's at the club. And for a side who struggle to score goals from open play, you'd hope to take advantage of set pieces.

Totally agree. Kelly is totally hamstrung on the left. While I understand Adkins' comments about wingers cutting inside I think that Kelly seems particularly one footed. Hes really desperately trying not to use his left and its making us hesitant and ponderous. For decades we've played through the left back with Shorey, Bertrand, Harte and then Shorey again being keen to get on the ball and go forward. With Kelly there we suffer defensively and struggle to get going when in possession.

And while Gunters not been woeful since his return, his form has hardly justifies losing Kelly from RB (Who was much more solid at right back) and as above, losing the left footed delivery from Shorey or Harte. Neither of them did as badly defensively as Gunter did before he was dropped anyway!

The set pieces of both Shorey and Harte have been consistently poor all season. Add that to the fact neither of them will be here next season, as well as their lack of pace and general defensive ineptitude, and we have some pretty valid reasons for playing Kelly at LB.

I'm sure that will be the first position NA looks to strengthen in the summer though, as I do agree that he's no left back.

I agree. Kelly is a good signing but playing him on the left is a disaster. Limits distribution and totally removes set piece threat which is often all you have when you're a poor side.

if he doesn't want to play Shorey or Harte, perhaps he could try Cummings at left back. He's played well there before, especially away at Leicester a few years ago.

Is that the total nob in block Y20, row T chooses not to renew his season ticket. Having had to listen to his constant drivel for 90 minutes all season (along with rows u and s he's a goby mofo). I would consider it a successful 2012/13 if he never returns to the Madstad. The guy is a gold plated twat. :evil:

I have Forest fans behind me that moan about how bad Reading are every game, for three seasons. :roll:
