They are beating Forest and going through to the Quarter Finals. Two ex-Reds playing for Forest. Luke Steele had a good game in goal and Saidy Janko was at right back until he was subbed.
Janko is wanted by Fulham and Wolves apparently. Liked him here, shame he never got a long run of games, remember him being injured a few times with niggles. Good win for Burton though that. Thought they would be higher up the table. Reckon they’ll put a decent run together and be playoffs end of season.
He's on loan from Porto - not played for them so they will probably ship him out. Wonder if we could make a cheeky bid? Yes. Burton have played well. They looked very good going forward, but it was a local derby for them so they probably upped their game. Forest insulted them by making wholesale changes so they deserve to go out.
Janko had a poor game tonight. Sailing crosses straight into the stand and eventually scoring an own goal. Fair play to Burton. Played well.
I like burton. Always a good away day. Hoping Accrington will be a similar type day. Even better with their beer tents and a day by sea. As with any signings this year salary will be the issue with the 65% rule. I’m hoping the recruitment team are busy identifying 2 or 3 key signings for January and going all out to get them sorted early. More Dougall than Knasmullner, more Ferenzi than Frimpong! But if we could get 1 or 2 loans of the quality of Janko that could make all the difference to push us over the line or help us in playoffs.
Will be hilarious if us and Burton finish top two with Accrington winning the play offs! Sunderland, Pompey and Peterborough fans would be suicidal
