Northern Red

Yep, that's the way he'll be looking at it. McInnes at Aberdeen won a League Cup and reached 3 other finals, plus 4 consecutive second place finishes (2 when Rangers weren't in the division, 2 when they were but were re-establishing themselves) which was enough to get him linked with various English jobs, and his record in England is nowhere near LJs.

Hibs fans on social media don't seem to be in favour, but I've barely seen any of them mentioning the Hearts connection as a reason.

Worth noting that Crawley scored a century only 3 Tests ago.

McAllister going in as assistant, unsurprisingly.

Yep. It is a minority, but it's a much more sizeable minority than a lot of people, including those in positions of influence, want to acknowledge. Last year's Euro final is a prime exampe.

Squad for the first two Tests has been announced: Ben Stokes (Durham) captain James Anderson (Lancashire) Jonathan Bairstow (Yorkshire) Stuart Broad (Nottinghamshire) Harry Brook (Yorkshire) Zak Crawley (Kent) Ben Foakes (Surrey) Jack Leach (Somerset) Alex Lees (Durham) Craig Overton (Somerset) Matthew Potts (Durham) Ollie Pope (Surrey) Joe Root (Yorkshire)

Conway is too good for that level now based on what I've seen of him.

Was about to post after seeing that shot of him that Dave Bassett looks like he's aged but then checked and realised he'll be 78 in a few months ?

Mad that Forest haven't been at Wembley since 1992. Must be one of the longest runs of clubs who've been in the league the whole time since?

That's going to kick off in the corner.

Ha!

Pure instinct.

Samba has done him there.

99% of them don't actually watch the games.

Now then...

For me it's not even in any doubt. You only have to look at certain people on here, and then Twitter and Facebook are much worse again.

Biggest worry for Forest here is someone getting themselves sent off. Ref is doing well to try and keep a lid on it but it's niggly.

1-0 Forest

Sheff Utd have started much the brighter, already forced one good save out of Samba.

Ah well, at least we nearly made 3 whole pages before the thread degenerated.

I think Tyrone Barnett was responsible for one of those injuries sustained at Peterborough?

Yep, it's the sort of thing that ordinarily you might expect him to have been asked about on the radio tonight, that it didn't come up probably suggests that they're respecting confidentiality.

It was suggested in the other thread that we might be trying to resolve what happens with his contract, e.g. whether insurance covers it, before announcing anything. All the signs are that we won't be seeing him again.

Yeah, but are your owners?
