***Forest v Treble Winners Official Match Thread***

[Mase]

I’d play Jack, because he’s bloody gorgeous

I would play doku because he's bloody dangerous.

I’d play Doku today. He tears apart these kind of teams.

Kinell, Haaland scores for Forest !

[zabbadabbado]

Five to go. A performance like we saw at Brighton will do rather nicely. With us playing last today the pressure is on Arsenal and they have the tougher fixture. Come KO we may be playing to go top with still having a game in hand.

Either way though, we know what we have to do. And hopefully we'll get the result we should have got last season where we inexplicably missed loads of chances and conceded a late one shot one goal breakaway

The mood that I've seen this last week is Forest fans are seriously shitting themselves about getting properly hammered which will affect their GD in their hopes of staying up. As it goes I'd like them to stay up. But I'm desperate for us to win today. And I think we will

4-0 Foden (2) Doku Bobb

4-0? You're being very generous, this is going to be a really tough game. A scrappy win, I can't see a big scoreline. I hope I'm wrong and you're spot on with your scoreline prediction for a change .

I agree with your sentiments.

These fuckers are scrapping for every point.They will play with a back 11 to start with.

We score early then they might fold,struggling to defend and counter..

Bookies have Forest at 8/1 for the win.

Haaland in the squad. Foden and Dias seemingly absent.

Foden clearly not fit for play before anyone explodes. He’s not on the bench. Stones still not seen as fit to start. Kovacic out Doku in. A strong side. Should be good enough.

No Foden

Why ?

Ill, and Dias

[john@staustell]

Yes no blinding logic for same team. Brighton handily insisted on trying to play football, leaving beautiful great gaps for us to play through.

Back to the parked double decker with the odd break today

Grealish and/or Doku might get a run

I'm getting the hang of this Pep business

Stones is hardly ever available for important games - he can go do one in the summer - made out of balsa wood he is .

[Mase]

Stones is a fuckin loser

[nottsblue]

Come on City

[Nick]

Tough without phil

[Outcast]

If we can't beat these lot we don't deserve anything
