1 point from Europe, 6 games to go

That will help, however the squad has to be good, not just making up numbers. Our bench was not good in December and January, the players didn't get a rest.

I think today is the first time this season we've won a PL game straight after a European Thursday night

Well that's a good sign.
 
It’s absolutely amazing that a club, that came up through the play offs are in with a touching chance of European football.

Dont mind admitting, my first thought is it’s a step too far, too soon. But then. I also wondered if we were ready for promotion to the Premier League.

I’m now confident that KLD and the people he trusts to run our club, always have plans for whichever scenario.

I'll be gracious, it was a very even game, a draw I think would have been fair.

I may change my mind when I see the highlights.

I thought Newcastle's starting front three was bizarre though.

We were warned that Europe & the league would be too much, and league form would suffer.

We've managed it well I think.

Nothing to be afraid of.

Well i think it was a reasonable warning, forest have suffered for it i think this season, but on the other hand, Villa seem to have been able to handle it.

It’s amazing that we beat a team who played in the last round of champions league and now could be relegated

We will never know.

Indeed, it's interesting how decisions and time, shape events, look at spurs for example last season Europa league Champions, and now, a possible relegation.

Indubitably.

What's funny is that they forget that cup papered over the cracks of how awful they were in the league last season as well.

Why anyone would turn down European football is beyond me.

Finishing work at 5pm and only waiting 45 minutes until.your team kicks off in Bosnia.

If you don't want to get European football then what's the point in supporting
