    4th in the Championship in March 2012

    Really didn't think we'd be this high up the table, I thought we'd be maybe 9th/10th and make a late push towards the play offs but 4th in the Championship is a great achievement so far. So lets not get ahead of ourselves, Forest did hit the woodwork 2 or 3 times, Overall a draw is a fair point for both teams, we should've perhaps held on but with 10 men and Forest coming off a 7-3 win at Leeds, it was always going to be difficult. Lets look forward to the big games coming up and get behind the team to maintain a play off position!

    Great point away from home always a shame to lose a goal so late on but we've done it enough times so take it on the chin . All the other sides around us have lost or drawn so lost no ground and another away game out of the way only 7 games to go come tomorrow night will still be in top 5 whatever Cardiff Birmingham score

    we are 4th, say those words out loud, 4th. Today we were without all the assets we bought in the summer CMS 2.5m, Buckley 1m and Hoskins .5m. we got a point away against a team who thrashed leeds 7-3 and we have only lost 1 league game this year. Our budget is around 16th in the championship yet we are winning our home games and drawing our away games which is play off form. happy happy days and any moaners need to take a moment and reflect on one of the best seasons for decades.

    100% THIS. Was gutted at how we ended up drawing up in the end, but overall happy with another away point and our league position.

    Don't think we can really include Hoskins in that as we've been without him every game this season except 2 or 3.

    Didn't play that well and gained another point, annoying as it is not to have won but we still stay 4th. I think the majority of NSC's would of settled for a point before kickoff.

    Would have taken the point all day long, but more concerned that we played so badly. Not good IMO approaching one of the most difficult run ins your gonna get in this league - but we do seem to be capapble of gettin over things pretty quick and back to winning ways. Boro HUGE game Saturday!!!

    With all the taking on the chin this season, perhaps we ought to make a cast of the gaffer's chin. That looks sure and sturdy. What a brilliant season. What will next season hold? It's so exciting

    Who'd have thunk it. West Ham above, Middlesbrough below. World class player coursing orgasms, let alone the management team the squad and the shiny new stadium.
    Exiled amongst the red with tiny white stripes

    I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion, I watched c-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain.........Time to die.

    Yet again you don't see the big picture.

    The queues for the pies are still too long.
