  When you are on a good run of form, like Nottingham Forest are at the moment, with some consistency, you don't want to be losing key players. So it is a blow to lose Daniel Pinillos to a serious knee injury. You think back to losing Britt Assombalonga, Chris Cohen and Andy Reid, too. It's points in a season like that, when these things happen, that it can all turn. But the good thing is the strength of character and the spirit they have got in the side at the moment; that can help you...

Sometimes it's better to go on a run and gradually climb the table. I always quote Sunderland under Roy Keane a few years ago. They...
