Whilst he might not be expected to do as much running for Forest as he would for us if he was as disgraceful as people are saying he wouldn’t have just played 2 full matches in 4 days at championship level.

Even if he gets fitter as long as Warnock is here I don’t see any way back for him.
In hindsight the signing may seem strange now. I think Tomlin was Warnocks stab at a Taarabt style figurehead for the team. Our stardust. It hasnt worked out. Hoillet and NML (initially) provided the team that magic. We have not needed Tomlin. Maybe it's as simple as that. His QPR team would not have been promoted without that little sprinkle of stardust in my opinion. I think we can go up almost in spite of it!
