No hiding from the fantastic turnaround but also no hiding from the fact that despite the turnaround without Forest points deductions we'd still be down and out by now.
Changes should have come much sooner but at least it's a positive finish and given us fans belief a minor miracle may happen

Amazing really, scouts at one of the top clubs in the world obviously rate the lad and yet the experts on here don't.
