Just a few comments today. Their match thread got into some weird distraction about Sam Smith, so I just gave up at that point. The general consensus in the kitchen at work today was that we have nothing to worry about for this game. I’m sorry but I don’t relax until it’s at least a three-goal lead.
COME ON CITY!!!

And the rest…
Nothing to lose here, apart from our dignity, so Cooper may want to stack the midfield with sideways merchants, but Im hoping for something a bit more proactive personally.
Key here is to not get an absolute dicking. I can see the bottom 4/5 places being so tight that goal difference could be a factor and ours is bad enough as it is.
We will probably lose this, but I am looking forward to singing champions of Europe, you'll never sing that.
Hoping they go balls deep against the Arse on Wed, and then rest the big guns at the weekend ahead of their “Champions of Europe, you’ll never sing that” game next week.
Damage limitation is our only hope here. The result is not in question.
Lots of so called you teams struggle at clubs lower down the PL........Newcastle were lucky to get a point at Bournemouth last Saturday for example. Everton beat Arsenal also last weekend. Steve Cooper's a smart coach, he'll have a plan I'm sure. Our biggest issue is injuries - if we had our full squad we'd be higher in the PL.
Bite your hand off for a 0-0 draw.
Don’t worry we’ll get given six points when City are kicked out of the EPL for their blatant cheating.
City could break their squad into 2 teams and both teams would finish in the top 4
Anything less than an absolute tonking will be a relief.
Hopefully they rest a few and we only lose by 3.
City will press Forest, the ball will get camped in our side and we will concede. Sad but true. Our home fans may be able to lift us to a point if we are fortunate and City come out flat after slapping Arsenal down.
One of the best club sides in the world playing against an injury ravaged team struggling against relegation is tailor made for an unlikely upset, so lump it on a Forest win.
