Billing comfortable on the ball, generally makes right decisions and if it just needs a simple pass to keep it and move us along that's just what he does. Goal was icing on the cake. Didn't really see the swerve on it from where I was behind goal but it seemed to have a bit of topspin to take it over the keeper and then under the bar, quality strike.

Cracking result, chuffed to bits, I usually go away to games close but decided against it today, gutted. Its a little unexpected of truth be known bit a great win.

Thats an amazing goal by Billing...
What a performance, and what a response to the recent results. To be honest, I cant wait for next season with a squad that, finally, such a great tactician AND teambuilder has put together.
Dont get to see Town often as living in Sweden, but have been to Fulham and QPR away. Even if I thought we were pretty unlucky at Craven C, the difference at Loftus was amazing. Town made them look ridiculous!
UTT.

Let's think positivel - all of us, it can't do any harm and it might do some good. I tried it,,,now it's 2-0...It worked ....!! It's a funny old thing. I went to a lecture by a guy called David Hamilton (no, not Diddy David Hamilton from Radio 2 fame). He's a scientist, a chemist and the talk was on positive thinking. So why was he giving a talk about positive thinking? It's not science - this sort of stuff is for the yogurt-eating basket-weavers... isn't it? But he's quite an inspiring guy really. He told a story about him and his mate who played a bit of snooker together. Unfortunately his mate had been involved in a car crash and had the arm in an elevated splint, big facial injuries including two black eyes and a cast on his lower leg, but he wanted to get out of the house for a game of snooker however difficult that might be. Dr David was absolutely petrified about causing him further injury and was trying to be really careful about what he was doing with the snooker cue . He was in such a negative state of mind that he tripped over a loose tile on the floor and poked his mate in the eye with the snooker cue. This was a turning point for him and his career. He jacked-in his job at the time and started lecturing in his new philosophy on positive thinking and makes a living out of it. He surmised that if thought processes could be so negative, what would happen if they were positive? What would happen if the crowd at Town home matches collectively had this mindset and what if positive thinking by fans could also affect Town matches even when they are nowhere near the ground, listening on the radio or following Sky Sports? Bunkum! It might be, but its doesn't cost anything does it.

Forest forum says
After they scored, our midfield pushed up to the forwards and hey presto we were actually in the game a bit more. But the fact is, Huddersfield looked more hungry and aggressive, more positive with the ball and worked together up and down the pitch. To the suggest Huddersfield 'did a Forest' or the 'perfect away performance' is rubbish, they were a lot better than that and played some decent football too - the number 17 ran the show, we couldn't get near him. That they are always near the wrong end of the table yet nearly always outplay us, is very strange... they are the new Walsall (and we helped them

Good post, interestingly I often find that if I wait until the game has ended, then check the result, we are more likely to have won if I check it out on the BBC website. If I tune into final score or indeed on DATM we somehow fail to win. I have learned my lesson, at PNE went on final score just in time to see we had gone 1-0 up. The last 10 mins or so was agonising, so today vowed not to " give a shit really ", watched the start of the Wales v Scotland rugby, then casually checked the results at 5.15pm obviously expecting the worst. What does this prove ? - absolutely no idea, but if it works, why not ?

I'm sure it's been mentioned, but great work by Harry Bunn to win the ball for Billing's goal. Gegenpressing in action. Working hard up front to win it back quickly, keep the ball in their half and pile on the pressure.

Most right-thinking people know that it's bollocks, that there's no way that wearing blue and white striped grundies could possibly have any influence on how Town play... But, barring the play-off final at Wembley the last time I saw us win away was a pre-season friendly against Pontefract Collieries (the Tom Cowan comeback game, btw.) so I'm reluctant to go to away games even though I know that my presence has nothing to do with anything, I've just been unlucky.

They were anything but poor, that's one of the best team displays I've seen this season. They pressed us to bits and out passed our feeble attempts to press them. Lot of players had off days but their manager has got them playing some nice stuff.
I'd like us to play the way they do.

Working hard up front to win it back quickly, keep the ball in their half and pile on the pressure. Indeed - and another assist for Bunn (who does nothing according to many on here) Excellent result Fantastic ball from Lolley to take 3 players out for the first goal - turned an attack into a dangerous attack in one ball
