Glasner: ‘We’re getting closer — points will come’

Oliver Glasner insisted Forest’s performance was “really good” despite a third straight league defeat and five home games without a goal in all competitions.

The numbers frame it: Nottingham Forest have 5 points from 7 matches, with 5 scored and 9 conceded, sitting 18th after Matchweek 7.

What happens next is the interesting part. Supporters will want to see whether this becomes a pattern or a footnote, and the next fixture is the first real test of that.

As ever, the conversation continues in the supporters room, where the mood after full time tends to be a better barometer than any table.
