The message of David Copperfield (Dickens) was how the rich and powerful always abuse the weak and disadvantaged. Wouldn’t label Burnley as rich and powerful but they could abuse Palace tomorrow. Lose that and they are on a slippery slope. Ever hopeful.

Nice to see dirty Leeds beat Leicester last night. Hopefully that will give us a much needed break from suffering the East Midlands Today Leicester love in.

Around the leagues

Leicester lost to Leeds, which makes little difference to their promotion but puts Leeds in the driving seat for second. Ipswich are hanging on but Southampton dropped a bollock by losing to Neil Harris's new old manager bounce at relegation threatened Millwall.

At the bottom, it was a bad day for Stoke. All the relegation candidates won except them and Rotherham who are already gone. Huddersfield got new manager bounce for the third time this season (our fault of course) to sneak a win at Watford, who had taken the lead through our own Dennis.

This leaves Stoke in the bottom three after Wednesday beat Rotherham and QPR managed a win despite starting a midfielder who this week got a prison sentence.

In league one, Derby remain 2nd because Bolton keep throwing their season away with defeats. But Derby lost at fellow chasers Barnsley who got within three points of them.

At the bottom, old friends Cheltenham and Carlisle are in trouble but it's surprising to see Charlton only one point clear of the bottom four. They got an excellent point at home to promotion bound top team Pompey.

Mansfield go top of league two with another big scoring win. Old friends crewe are third, Wrexham drop out of the promotion places while Notts County drop into the bottom half of the table with another defeat.
 
Klopp Kindergarten did ok. Efficient rather than spectacular. Feel he will have to pick some of them again on Weds v S’ampton. Thought the game was enjoyable despite lack of goals. Difference between watching Forest and watching both teams in the final was players didn’t make glaring errors in own half. No major mistakes by defenders. Forest need to look at todays final and learn the lesson. Errors result in goals and lose games. How many times have Forest leaked more than three goals in a game this season.

Sought out defensive errors!

Our possession stats are good under Nuno, tackles XG etc. Its individual errors.
 
Getting pissed off with the East Midlands today Leicester love fest now.
I don't regard them as rivals but I'd be delighted if these bin robbers fucked up promotion.
