Forest or the other team?
I'd take a drawQuote:

I think Brentford are quality, I'd rather face west brom at the moment as Brentford are on fire.
that said I wouldn't rule out an upset against Preston. Brentford will have all of the ball and Preston will try to be direct and counter attack
I’d prefer to meet Forest over two legs and beat the Jacks in the Final to avoid Brentford and Fulham but I can’t see it happening!
We wont catch Forest . let them do the batchplugs by 5 clear goals ,Sami long legs hat trick
Happy for forest to win.
Forest win. Would be nice to think forest would have been involved and two spaces up for grabs but given matches left I think we are better served not having Swansea pick up anything.
Same here, we are only in contention for sixth place I feel and so I want the result that gives us the best chance of doing that.Quote:

Forest win is the safest bet. It leaves only Millwall in the running, and alleviates that pressure of them lot making it at our expense.
Forest win or a draw would be good, a Swansea win would not be ideal! I would rather we caught Forest just to avoid Brentford but making sure we get into the top 6 has to be the priority!
I’ve got Millwall as favourites
It’s going to be hard, Millwall have 2 fairly easy games, QPR away, and Huddersfield at home. You gotta say that’s 6 points.
So we need 4 points, plus keep our 1 goal advantage.
Can’t see it myself
Was he just being diplomatic?Quote:

West Brom have to slip up again and Brentford have got to win 3 straight, it's unlikely I'd say. They've got Huddersfield and QPR, the opposite of Millwall's as chance would have it.Quote:
