If you were in his shoes, which game would you drop McKenna in for?

Is he important at Blackpool away where we're at our worst? Should we save him for the City Ground tie where we can do the most damage? Maybe he should wait for Wembley and being fully fit, at the risk that we don't get there without him?
 
If we don't get to Wembley, there's no point in resting him for it.

Might play him 1st leg, DEFINITELY play him 2nd.

Would the heavy shitty pitch of Blackpool FC be a bit too much for an older player trying to come back from injury?
 
If there is one game made for Paul Mckenna, it is Blackpool away on that shite pitch where we are going to need leaders on the pitch.

At home where we can play our stuff, I don't think he would be as vital
 
Blackpool away. as has already been said, he could make all the difference tomorrow on the shit pitch. I just hope nobody goes and gets themselves sent off!
 
Hi All Lets hope that the introduction of McKenna can really lift the team tomorrow to victory and easy passage to the final.
I am simply going to get smashed if we make it :cheers:


Good luck tomorrow boy's!
 
I'd save him for the home tie. Thoiugh if cohen does miss out tomorrow, we really need a physical presence like mckenna in there to partner the moose

I Suppose Billy Davies wouldn't be playing him if he didn't think he was going to be physical, i just hope it pay's off and doesn't cause any unnecessary problems for Mckenna regards his injury.

Good luck to the lad and fingers crossed!
 
Play hime in the away leg, we will need someone with his experience in the middle of the pitch. And im sat in the brain clough stand lower row xa and im wondering if anybody knows where that row is? is it front? back? middle? Im just curious so any reply would be helpful. Cheers

Brain?lol

Sorry just messing with ya!
 
Mckenna is the sort of player who will relish it Away at Blackpool especially, I also have sneaky feeling fitness wise he has been pretty much there for the last few weeks, I reckon with automatic gone and playoffs assured Billy held him back to unleash him on the playoffs. Think he could be a big surprise inclusion in the line-up tomorrow. Even more massive if Chris has gone down, hope he get's fit he is everything that is Forest the way he play and puts himself about for us

He plays away, is targeted, gets clobbered, goes off, & maybe we draw.

Back home, we have no Paul McKenna to call on when we need a win in a big game.
 
But we can also use the 4-4-2 system that has worked so well for us with Moussi and Raddy at home.

I understand the issues about being clobbered, but it'd have to be a red card tackle to affect his knee, surely?

God, I'm tired. If what I'm writing doesn't make sense, I apologise. Might go to bed shortly!
