• All - you probably don't need to be told, but....
    Despite the Admins' best efforts some spammers/scammers/scalpers are getting through the entry system and are, astonishingly, in possession of FA Cup tickets that they, astonishingly, don't want!

    It's probably a scam, and either way it's a criminal offence under section 166 of the Criminal Justice and Public Order Act 1994, (as amended by the Violent Crime Reduction Act 2006) to offer or expose tickets for sale.

    Please DO NOT engage with these people - please REPORT any threads/posts offering tickets for sale in case we've not caught them.
    Thanks!

They have only won 1 in the last 8 games but equally they have only lost 1 in the last 8 games too.

No doubt it will be a different challenge to what we normally face in this league.

It will be one of those where nothing else matters apart from getting over the line as it'll be another huge step towards CL.

Play like the Villa 2nd half and it's ours - out of sight by HT.

They are resurgent under Moyes, bloody irritating in fact, but we should have enough to deal with them, but Moyes is a wise man.

A Forest win - 2 - 0.

Things what I think I learned at Villa:
- 5 at the back isn’t as well rehearsed as a starting formation as it could be. Fine when we’re defending a lead late on and really it’s a back 8 anyway, but when we start that way with an intention to play forward there seems to be a bit of positional uncertainty in the back 5.
- if we concede one we must stop conceding another straight after. Has happened a few times this year and it’s an old Forest thing we need to put to bed.
- if there’s no Wood, give the striker shirt to Jota and let him make mischief with more license than he normally has down the flanks
- the guys need to really focus on their finishing - Williams, Ando, Morgan… doesn’t seem to be much conviction when they take the shot on, like they’re expecting to miss.

But we should have this. I’m confident. And I’m not going which makes me even more confident. If nothing else we’re entering the part of the season where ‘having something to play for’ becomes important and we will really want this.

I’ll be less confident if Elanga is out and nobody else is back though.

Wood instead of Jota if fit.

Tough, nasty game coming up!
They like to leave a foot in, Big Ears is a right dirty bastard (obviously an admirer of Brian Labone - may HE rot in hell), and by rights should be suspended.
Branthwaite is good, but lacks pace.
So much depends on who is fit.
I'm going for a hard-fought Forest win.
In the absence of Elanga, Wood, and Taiwo I think our goals will be scored by Sosa (give him a start please, Nuno), Hudson-Odoi (scores before they crock him), and Jota Silva who plays as an out and out Number 9 for this one!

I will kick the TV in if Tarkowski does a goal line clearance or scores a goal. That tosser should have been banned for 3 games for one of the ugliest challenges I have seen in a long time. VAR pathetic yet again.

I don't mind him as a player, but when I saw it, it made me feel a bit sick.

I have a feeling it will be trickier than people expect. Everton are harder to beat under Moyes as opposed to Dyche and will battle hard to keep us out. We don't have much going forward without Wood or Taiwo (potentially) and maybe also Elanga. Set plays at both ends were always a strength for them under Dyche and I doubt Moyes would erode that at least not mid season.

Plus they have Jack "slap me face" Harrison who is always a pain in the neck when he plays us
