Forget about the performance or entertainment. It's only the result that matters. -
I was thinking the same, but with Bristol City losing on Tuesday it is not totally out of the question, indeed if Forest win again
and Bristol City lose again and the two other teams above them fail to win their next match they would actually be in the
playoffs!!!
Still a tall order though, especially knowing Forest every time they seems to make a bit of progress they tend to fall back again!
Might be different under the new management though, we'll have to wait and see!
so tough to make the play off and then it will be tough to get through them, the book makers make them a 25-1 shot, must have
been about 50-1 before Bristol City lost!Comment

Sheffield Wednesday are only a further three points back but I wouldn't give them a snow ball's chance in hell of getting through to the play offs so what does that make Forest's chance ? A large snowman's chance ?Forget about the performance or entertainment. It's only the result that matters.Comment

Actually Forest would have been more than 50-1 cos Bristol City were away from home to a team above them in the league, but probably a 1 in 3 chance of winning so they would be 75-1 or 80-1. Which is probably what Sheffield Wed are.
Actually Shef Wed are about 150-1.
All the odds are for promotion, I mistaken put to reach the play offs.
Sheffield Wed have a bad goal difference that is why they are longer than 80-1 they are -7 goals whereas forest are +9 so they would need an extra point to pass Bristol City really.Comment

It is nothing to do with gambling, it is just trying to assign a figure to their chance of promotion to quantify it. If for example I said "Ireland have a good chance of qualifying", you could say that was gambling talk, only difference is I am quantifying "good".
By the way there are adverts for cosmetic breast surgery on the site, something that could kill you. Not sure why they advertise here lol, but if I see any adverts for gambling sites I will let you know!Last edited by tricky_colour; 01/03/2019, 10:17 PM.Comment

Actually I was using a brand new tablet I bought when I made that post so I didn't have any browser history at all, I notice the current adverts (on my PC) here are for a local building society indeed the Nottingham building society, which does seem appropriate given we were discussing Nottingham Forest, hence it seems they maybe based on what I post also?
There is also an advert for a file converter, perhaps appropriate given I am a bit techy, but I've no need for a file converter, or maybe I do but don't realise it!
So I am no sure what it is based on, I literally only started using the tablet a day or so ago. I just had a look at the history and I had clicked on a story about some woman who died after heart surgery, maybe that had something to do with it.
The tablet is a

Anyhow Forest lost and Bristol City drew, don't think I am allowed to say how that has affected their chance so I won't, but the gap has gone from 3 points to 4 points and they only have 11 games left not 12, so probably not too much, certainly an opportunity missed, they could have closed the gap to one point, I can't see them going anywhere this season they don't seem to have improved at all.
The teams close to them Derby and Birmingham also lost so I guess their chance has not changed as much as you would expect, but they can't really afford too many results like that is anyway if they are to have a chance. They are very much in the last chance saloon. Granted they may be flat on their backs but they are still in there.

By the way I am being offered the chance to.
Entry is free so not really gambling I guess, but " The winner(s) will be required to participate in post promotion publicity"... hmmm...WIN A BRAND NEW HOLIDAY HOME!
Worth up to £40,000!
Also this sounds rather disconcerting "Pitch fees are included for the current season along with water and rates bills."Last edited by tricky_colour; 03/03/2019, 9:51 AM.Comment
