Nottingham Forest are staring relegation in the face, and Vitor Pereira desperately needs to claim a win from somewhere.
The Reds haven’t won since his first game in charge in all competitions, and Sunday’s 0-0 draw with Fulham keeps the team level on points with West Ham, who have slipped back to 18th place.
Who was your Man of the Match vs Fulham?
Dan Ndoye thought he’d won yesterday’s game for Forest, but VAR indicated that he was marginally offside after running on to Neco Williams’ brilliant through ball.
Forest did enough to ensure that literally nothing has changed between them and West Ham this weekend, but there is now an unwanted record that has been matched with another winless game.

Nottingham Forest now on longest City Ground run since 1999
Since Forest played Tottenham at the City Ground in December and won 3-0, the Reds have played seven games on home soil without winning any of them.
The Reds have lost three of those games, with yesterday’s stalemate with Fulham the fourth draw, and it’s a worrying concern for Forest that they must alter in the final four home games.
The last time Forest went seven home games without a win in the Premier League was from September 1998 to April 1999, when the Reds were ultimately relegated from the top-flight.
What advice would you give Vitor Pereira to arrest Forest’s home slump?
Forest have four home games left against Aston Villa, Burnley, Newcastle and Bournemouth to come and in truth, four wins is pretty urgent.
With West Ham picking up some form and Tottenham gaining a credible point at Liverpool yesterday, Forest have to roll up their sleeves and start winning matches.
Relegation doesn’t bear thinking about for Forest and for Evangelos Marinakis, with the hope being that improved performances will translate to positive results in the coming weeks.
