It sounds as if Forest have hardened their stance and will insist on ending Adomah's loan after tomorrow's match.

He wants to stay. Harris wants him to stay. He has done a fair job for us and has been a guaranteed starter. But he was brought in mainly because of the 'season ending' injury to NML - and we will probably have all of NML, Hoilett, Murphy and Whyte available - and a few other wing options too.
So will this (if it happens) be a major set-back or a minor annoyance?
Do think it's a bit odd, Forest are definitely in the playoffs and as far as I know he can't play for Forest. However, Murphy is fit so we have 4 wingers. It's annoying because he's done a good job but at the same time, he hasn't exactly set the world on fire. He's steady and I'd prefer him to stay but it isn't a complete disaster.
He offers more than Whyte going forward (who I had completely forgotten about and just had to check whether he was on the bench against Preston) and for that reason, I'd like him to stay.
Forest = SCABS !!!!! Nuf said
They’re running scared
What Albert brings is intelligence, ability to off load simple pass and defend , something Josh struggles with , yes he's quick but his tracking back is woeful, perhaps Brad Smith or Junior switches to that side of the pitch definitely a blow I'd say .
Adomah is not a happy bunny

Murphy's Law dictates that you didn't realise that he was a left back due to coming on to play in front of Bennett to defend our lead on Saturday. Makes sense, really.
If you're still suggesting that he could play as right-winger, you're off your head. I can't think of another example apart from Bale who has moved from left-back to right-wing... And that was after years of developing as a forward and he was world class.
"Versatility I think its called"... Just stick Flint out there then. I've seen centre backs on the pitch before so they can play on the wing.
Can't believe I took the time to type that when I should have just called you an idiot. It would have served the same purpose.
Big loss. Hopefully NML will be 100% fit to play 90mins.
Weve got loads of options. Not ideal but feck the scabs.
Nobody on this board has the knowledge of Smith as a player to ascertain if they can play on the wing. We know he's been deployed as a defensive option wide left to shut down Leeds attacking down the right late on in a game.
Life on mars put out an idea. He's perfectly entitled to do so.
so many full back and wingers have interchanged in these positions far too many to list , Smith skills are listed as a wing the fact they aly in a wide position defending or as a winger has allowed it , not ideal but an option if we do in lose Albert, whcih would be great shame , seems a decent lad ,his experience will be missed
I'll be honest, don't necessarily agree - don't know enough about Smith to know if he could do it. If he's more of a wing back than pure left back, there's a chance, sure. Not going to shoot you down for coming out with an idea though.
Adomah was brought in to cover for NML being lost for the "season". Now he's back, think we've more than enough cover and if he could do it, Smith would probably be far down the pecking order imo.
