Bummed at home, going to really regret the points dropped against Arsenal when we look at the table after this weekend 
Will be interesting to see the side set up to try to stop Chelsea 
Can't wait until we get some easy games to get the confidence back up, hurry up United game

Typically we will face the new manager bounce again, it feels like it happens every year
The new manager is Neil Warnock, though: how big a bounce can that be? This has late 1-0 win written all over it. A Pardew classic.

Only 10 players missing today
Away at Rotherham tomorrow, looking forward to it as I've not been there before and it's apparently a very decent ground. They've only scored twice so far this season, and we've not conceded more than once per game... so I think a draw is very likely!
Sheffield Wednesday have had an amazing start to the season, especially considering last years absolute shambolic start.
Forest are doing well too, should be a good game. I usually air on the side of caution with most matches, but I think that's certainly true this time round. A draw would be a very good result for Wednesday.

I love Stuart Pearce, really do. One of my all-time favourite players. I don't like clubs who spend that much money, and buy that many(good) players though...God I hope FFP doesn't turn out to be a load of BS!
If you compare Forest's spending and squad price with Wednesday's you'll see a very big difference. The Majority of Wednesday's squad were signed on free's or in the case of Palmer came from the youth team.
Having money to spend and having big budgets to operate on, are a huge advantage in football.

You out played us last year and with Costa looking likely to miss out due to injury a 36yr old Drogba shouldn't be too hard to take care of.
I don't think Drogba was re-signed with the intention of him starting tough games like Everton away & that's the reason I don't think Chelsea will win the league this year, there is simply no depth behind Costa.

A sort of 3-1-6 system there. It's not going to be 0-0 anyway!
