   Listening to the match on radio I felt city done ok. We could have been ore clinical. We have been saying thag all season. Could Jazz have defended the goal better than he did? Perhaps, for me I wouldn’t have minded if he had kicked that horrible little creep in the face. Thats my opinion as is, he should have been banned from football a for a couple of years for the solves incident when he pushed a wolves player but dived holding his face. Ref whose back was turned then sent of the innocent wolves man. Football can do without him.
   Can u imagine paying £36 then the game is lost due to him doing something like that. He has total lack of respect for the paying fan!!!!
   I hope wednesday stay dowm and FFP get them.
   We need big clubs to go to the wall to prove how the premier league, sky and the likes of are destrying the balance and honesty of football.
   Or.
   I am I being niaive and its always been like this.

   Well Paul this was one match I did not even contemplate going to. It was clear on Cardiff city player that the amount of effort is slowly declining, the extra mile the players were reaching is just that 10 yards too short.
   When NW says he has 90% of the team I hope he is including the bench in that 90%.
   We have needed that creative midfielder for the last few years, add to that a goalscorer, a goalkeeper and a fast winger then that 90% doesn’t stack up even with a full bench.
   Back to the match I believe we played well certainly from the commentary I heard. But we are now prone to two things one we are not scoring goals and two we always seem to make a mistake out of nothing.
   To rectify those we need a bit more than the 10% NW has indicated and knowing NW he knows that too.
   The players are playing for their existence and a few are not making a good job of it. We need to now go on a run to the end of the season to start the impetus for 2017/18

   Thanks Paul I listened to the commentary, and tried to read between the lines, I do wish local radio would employ neutral commentators to provide a measured coverage of the game.

   I am enjoying the limp to the line as thus could have such a worse set of circumstances before the arrival of NW.

   To be far and if the commentary was to be believed, we dekiverdd a good account of ourselves , and appeared to compete against a fairly decent side, who we will probaly rub up against next year.

   Our lack of finishing perhaps signifies the overall problem we have, let’s hope we deliver some misery on Forest on Monday, I would not be shocked at three defeats after that,and we finish fairly low down the league.

   Happy Easter All .

   As always, thanks for the replies. Paul, I’ve always tended to be a Wednesday rather than United favourer (maybe it goes back to 70/71 season when United pipped us for promotion), but I don’t like this current Wednesday team much and I’m with you completely when it comes to Forestieri. I’ve now seen the incident where Junior Hoillet was booked and I believe he was a little lucky not to get a red card, but the situation was not helped at all by the Wednesday manager haring up and down the touchline remonstrating with the officials and generally trying to ensure we were reduced to ten men – he has a bit of form for doing that and I can even remember Russell Slade getting involved in a dispute with him when Wednesday came here last season – essentially, the only reason I want Wednesday to go up for is those shocking away fan prices.
   Regarding the Premier League, this story is quite interesting – it’s just a drop in the ocean for them at the moment, but maybe it could be a sign of tougher times to come?

   Barry, with Ajayi gone and Manga likely to go, I think Warnock maybe looking for another centreback this summer – maybe not someone to come straight into the team, but possibly a young player from the lower leagues who could give us a bit more depth in that position – I agree with you about one or two of our players needing a big finish to the season if they want to still be here next year.
   Happy Easter to you, and all other readers of the blog, Russell. I tell you what, Forest are right in trouble if they lose tomorrow and, with their awful away form, and our home record which only looks pretty ordinary because we lost four out of our first five games at Cardiff City Stadium, that may well happen. As for our last four matches, Wigan will do very well to get anything out of their game at Brighton tomorrow and so could conceivably need maximum points from their remaining games when they face. Knowing Warnock, he’ll remember that Wigan once relegated his Sheffield United side from the Premier League on the last day of the season, so I daresay he’d like to get a bit of revenge when we play them – I’d back Wigan to win though and then we’d face two sides who I reckon will both know their fate when they play us – Newcastle will be confirmed as promoted, but may still have the title to go for and Huddersfield will be confirmed as in the Play Offs. Therefore, I think there may be a degree of experimentation in both of our opponents selections and I wouldn’t be surprised to see the same with us as Warnock will no longer feel obligated to put out his strongest team.
