*Forest.

It genuinely blows my mind just how many people can't spell Forest.

I’d never seen anyone go with 2 r’s before

[steve cooper]

Brilliant tackle by Walker on Pearce for our 3rd goal.

 

[CanuckSkyBlue]

Going for 3-2 again tomorrow, think defensively we’re still gonna let goals in but against the weaker teams I’d fancy us to score some.

Godden to work his nuts off and Hamer to pull the strings.

 

[fatso]

Oggy’s distribution was first class.
The way he picked the ball out of his net and returned it to the half way line 4 times in quick succession!

 

[BornSlippySkyBlue]

1990/91 season, Coventry 5-4 Forest in the League Cup (or whatever it was called at the time).

Gally hattrick and a Livvo goal took us 4-0 in the first 30ish minutes of the game. Nigel Clough got his hattrick between our 4th and half time. Forest equalised just after halftime and Livvo got the winner around the 60th minute. Amazing game. I've still got the full game on VHS. But here's the highlights.

That’s the one but my god I’d forgotten it was that long ago. I must have been in that still from the video somewhere. Remember being in shock when we were 4-0 up and then thinking we’d blown it at 4-4 to then going nuts when we scored the winner. Was a crazy game, Cheers!

 

[shmmeee]

Probably the most crazy game I’ve ever been to.

My first season as a City fan. I think that game locked me in for life!

 

[cc84cov]

Their pace up front worries me their lightening on the press 1-1 draw just can’t see them not scoring

 

[Liquid Gold]

Don’t contribute to sky ruining football and watch out games on ifollow as part of your season ticket and save money. Works all round.

Fuck sky.

 

[Tommo1993]

It’s not on Sky anyway so it all works out!

 

[no_loyalty]

I'm confident that if we score first we won't lose, going for a 2-2 draw with Biamou and Godden with our goals.

 

[Tommo1993]

Whoever plays on the left against Cyrus, put him on his left. To go with that left foot that he doesn’t have.

Sky red button update...

So it is on? I'm confused. Club confirmed it was just iPlayer.

Gallagher was quality ,fox in the box .
Like this commentator too.

It’s definitely just iFollow

 

[mark82]

Craig Forrest did.

Yeah, should've read to the end of the thread first.

 

[no_loyalty]

Craig Forrest did.

Forrest Gump also.

 

[Tommo1993]

Forrest Gump also.

I wouldn’t put it past Forrest Gump to misspell it every time! He spells ‘Jennnnay’ like so.

Edit: the massive flaw in that is he spells it right on his shrimping boat.

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

GGrrrr - off topic. That Steve Cook has just got red carded for Bournemouth and given Sheff Wed a pen (scored) 1-0 down. Could have done without them winning tonight (though might keep Monk in a job!)

 

[covcity4life]

Why is it not on red button? dont get it

 

[Frostie]

You'd think The Telegraph would do a tiny bit of research before releasing these kind of articles wouldn't you, else what's the point?

Nottingham Forest's predicted XI to face Coventry City: Star man to return

The two clubs meet at the City Ground on Wednesday night

www.coventrytelegraph.net

Grabban described as "a doubt" despite already being confirmed unavailable

Forest yet to learn full extent of Lewis Grabban injury

Last season's top scorer will definitely miss the home games against Coventry City and Wycombe Wanderers

www.nottinghampost.com

Harry Arter "an injury doubt" but already confirmed is available

 

[Johhny Blue]

Hope Marosi's a bit quicker reacting than some of Oggy's efforts. Thought he'd dropped off for the Clough second goal.
Decent stop from the Pearce free-kick though.

As for 5-4 matches, I still prefer the Norwich one though.

Norwich was my favourite as well but let’s toss in an honourable mention for Sunderland.

Forrest Griffin, (american mma fighter)

 

[Blind_Faith]

Looking at the table, its not imperative we win tonight but it would be nice to put some distance between us and a team like Forest.

I watched that Harry Arter in his last game for them - he was awful (not saying he is a bad player, but he was in that game)

 

[Nick]

He won't be when Hamer smashes him 2 minutes in.

Prone to a red card too

 

[PVA]

Arter is a nasty niggly little player, he'll be trying to get Hamer sent off no doubt about it.

Tbf, MotherTeresa could get Hamer sent off!

Hell of a game. I was in the West End.

 

[ccfcricoh]

Slightly nervous about Knockcunt and Christie against Giles at LWB.

Cant see a clean sheet here, so hopefully we score first again as Forest heads will probably drop.

Going for a 2.1

Same formation as Reading please with 2 up top

 

[RegTheDonk]

Seen some great games against forest over the years (anyone there for the wheelbarrow but the wheel fell off one?) including the 5-4 which was a ridiculous game. Didn’t we go 4-0 up only for them to get back to 4-4 and we then scored the winner. Also some great pubs in Nottingham (no, not fucking hooters). Oh well.

That was a mad game, a fair few of their lot had left at 4-0 I was told from a m8 in the cop. Ta for the Happy Highlights, Happy.

Hoping for the same tonight lol!

 

[cc84cov]

Probably the quickest forward line we have played so far tonight high press might cause issues but we can now go long when need to with Lord Maximus up there

 

[Briles]

Grabben being out is a plus. They do have a quality midfield though. I'd take 1-1
