Are we really under the radar? I mean we were going to be happy with a top 6 finish, and odds are saying we're 5th favorite for promotion, we're playing teams like huddersfield and charlton of the park and frustrating strong teams like bolton. People are talking and those who play us (apart from coyle of course) have nothing but good things to say about our football.
This is from a team thats still gelling, and with strong/er additions in sharp, coppinger, lansbury etc. I dont think we're as under the radar as some people would like to think, but we think we are, which is probably more important
On a side note, are chalton supposed to be a fluid footballing side, cause all we saw from them for 70 mins was them jumping into our players and scrounging set pieces off us. Their goalkeeper and their no 18 were worst for it. Loved it when their 18 tried to mid air barge our player in an attempt to get a piece, missed, and crippled himself

Blackburn fans seem to think they have the squad but clueless manager who they think will fluck it up for them ...I hope so too.

Sacking Sean OD was the biggest mistake at Donny ever.
Gillett, Copps and Sharp are tremendous players.
Sean's method of play reminds me of Old Cloughie. Just give him time and he will produce the goods. Just look at the amount of money he has spent so far. I can't change my club but I will always follow his results. Show him loyalty and you have him for the rest of his career. Sit back and enjoy the journey back to the top of that I am sure.

We are just hoping not to go down but I am very confident you have the right man in Sean OD A manager with principles now that alone is rare in football.

Alex... I totally agree with your comments about Mr O'Driscoll and have nothing but admiration for him..of course you cannot change allegiance to your club but maybe we could adopt you or you could be a sorta foster fan..
All the best to Donny this season

When people talk about the reason Sean was sacked at Donny you can tell them it was because he wouldn't have anything to do with Willie McKay when he was promising prem players at £2000 a week. Too good to be true? oh yes it was and we lost the best manager outside the prem. A very honourable man.

it's coming together nicely. pep, gillett, cox, sharp, Collins and sam are going be great. mcgugan and Reid both look very happy ATM infact Reid is impressing greatly. Mr OD and the owners are onto a winner. the squad looks full of goals, great "beginning" to the season, let hope they can keep this momentum going.

While I'd be happy with a top ten finish and realise that virtually any side could win this league, I have a quietly confident feeling that we'll do very well this season ( obviously ruling out any horrendous injury list).
We now have a good squad, and we may strengthen it further. Work in progress, but already some very good signs.

I think the term 'under the radar' is really for us fans/media.
Any manager worth his salt will try and investigate the strengths and weakness of any opposition. So, in that respect, we are not under the radar.
Nice to know some media and jealous fans have not quite figured out the importance of our recent takeover and squad quality.
I've not known a recent time when nearly all involved with Forest, fans and staff, alike, are all feeling a great vibe.
Long may it continue!
