I see a point and to be honest, 3 points out of the first 3 matches is a reasonable return IMO.

Um, and if the likes of Blackpool win tomorrow that means we're six points behind them after three games.?

With respect if we'd played Doncaster away and Barnsley at home so far I'd be worried if we were on 2 points.

However, a local derby away and the team many are tipping to win the league at home is somewhat different to Blackpool's start.

They have a tougher game tomorrow away at Middlesbrough, but frankly I'd still fancy our chances more at Boro than Forest as a general rule this season.

In September we have Leeds, Derby and Yeovil at home with Brighton away. Following those games I think we can start to look at the table and worry who is where.

But not quite yet.

With only 43 games left to catch up.

Never too soon to start winning.

Match preview courtesy of Sky Sports News site.

Nottingham Forest have no fresh problems and could be unchanged for Saturday's Sky Bet Championship clash with Bolton at the City Ground.

Simon Cox is still out with ankle ligament damage so Darius Henderson, who scored the injury-time winner at Blackburn last weekend, is likely to start again up front, while centre-half Kelvin Wilson is expected to run out at the City Ground for the first time since returning to the club from Celtic.

Boss Billy Davies has options should he wish to make any changes. Defenders Dan Harding, Greg Halford and Danny Collins and forwards Jamie Mackie, Ishmael Miller and Matt Derbyshire were all on the bench at Ewood Park.

Winger Djamel Abdoun, a summer signing from Greek side Olympiacos, is still building up his match fitness but could be in contention by the end of the month.

Chris Eagles is a doubt for Bolton but is close to making a full recovery from the ankle injury that kept him out of last week's 1-1 draw with Reading.

Manager Dougie Freedman will leave it late before making a decision on his playmaker but will also be without the injured Andre Moritz who is still a few weeks away from a return.

The Trotters will also have long-term absentee Stuart Holden missing but Jay Spearing is in line for his second start after joining permanently from Liverpool at the end of last week.

Tim Ream, Craig Davies and Adam Bogdan all returned from international duty unscathed and are likely to feature in the matchday squad as Bolton go in search of their first league win of the season.

Unfortunately for Freedman's side, Zat Knight has trained all week without picking up any long term injuries.

???

[thebish]

moritz is injured?? how so?? he wasn't injured when we got him, was he? I thought all our swizzy sciencey stuff was supposed to stop this kind of thing!!

[Prufrock]

It's from Sky isn't it? They probably saw that he's been referred to as not match fit yet, and thought f*ck it, it's not the premiership, he's probably injured.

[TANGODANCER]

Cheers for that Bruce (including that rogue last line).
