Well, as my wise old pipe-smoking Granny would say, spitting a wad of chewed tobacco into the fire, "After the Lord Mayor's Show comes the Sh!t Show". So, yet again Forest are embarrassed by Blackpool, and rather than enjoy a bit of a winter break the squad has to prepare for a tough looking replay in the north-west. Will Vlachula retain his place, or will Topsy-Turner be restored to between the sticks? Or even Adolf Hennessey? All I can say is, I'm glad I can't be going to Bloomfield Road next week...

Mods: where's me poll gone to? It was a beauty too!!!

Thanks for adding the poll.
I did put one together, , then I switched tabs to the "Message" tab.
Assuming the system had retained the poll, I hit "Post" while on the Message tab.
My poll didn't get posted.
Wen we ASSUME we make an ASS out of U and ME

It's on Tuesday according to the BBC.
Apologies: I have just checked the BBC sports website and it does, indeed, say it is Tuesday 16th.
It also showing as Tuesday on the NFFC Official website.
I accept NO Liability for anyone missing the game because of the thread title.

Don't think it's confirmed either way until the TV companies make their selections, which won't be until after tonights game.

I'm going into Cooper mode and taking the positives.
We came back from 2 down which would not have happened before.
Questions may have been answered about certain players futures.
MGW is looking the business not just his goal but most of the things he does.

Hopefully Felipe is fit enough to return for this one.
Think we should rotate and not risk certain personal ahead of Brentford but still go strong enough to win.

Turner
Williams Felipe Omobamidele Nuno
Yates Mangala
Origi Aguilera CHO

Really would love a cup run, especially since a semi-final is a Wembley day out.

I wonder if this will be selected for TV coverage?

I would imagine that they are falling over themselves for Tottenham v City and Newport/Eastleigh v Man Utd.

We might get a red button game but will depend on day/time. Lots of London based Prem teams potentially at home.
