Forest have just signed Philip Zinkernagel on loan from Watford, does anyone know if he’ll be allowed to play tomorrow?

I'm in block 22, can't wait for tomorrow really looking forward to it, feel like I did 20 odd years ago with those games we won against Chelsea. Hopefully a good walk up as only really behind the goal left!

Well after a few months CCFC sabbatical I’m back to it. No idea what to expect, maybe we are slightly weaker on balance, hope and will be happy to stay up

Possibly. I don't think much of the team when I consider how much was spent on it though.

Look at it as a team that's been together mostly for a 2nd 3rd season and that cant possibly have the injury luck of last season that fucked our mid season

I think as a few people have mentioned that the league on the whole could be weaker. If we can get a reasonable centre back and centre mid over the line before deadline day we could have an alright season. Let's see what happens.

That was in response to Sheffield Utd finishing top 2... weird. I absolutely don't think that about us

We will be better than people think 👍

I assume we will try and be more offensive this season with two forwards and O Hare and Hamer as pressing midfielders - and we have alternate forward

Sheaf has a big season ahead and I think he’s going to deliver.

The defensive side is the area where we will know pretty quickly how we will do. Dabo has got to stay fit and be better at this level and the left wing back is unknown. We are vulnerable even with the first choice back 3 and the back ups are a real issue

we’ve pretty much adopted a Mowbray approach to keepers and let’s hope Moore is a rabbit out the hat signing as there is no back up anywhere near good enough

We’ve improved the forward areas and gone backwards defensively so we will see how it pans out

yep that’s a good point to be fair, some potential dross for sure

Still don't feel confident with our back line. And until Bright or Hamer gets into consistent form, midfield are lacking that breakthrough ball player.

Forest to win 3-1, our goal from Waggerz

Can't disagree with any of that at this stage. Definitely need at least 1 more CB & a CM but it seems like they're very close.

Moore may or may not be a better overall goalkeeper than Marosi but it's pretty clear he's a different style of keeper & will try to command his box a lot better. This in turn may help the defence out too.

Yeah it’s a worry that tomorrow is the first competitive game of the season for bright and Hamer meanwhile the forest midfielders are all in mid season form.

Results this weekend tell me this is again going to be a tight, tough & uncompromising league I think we’ll be okay but if I have a concern it’s with our physicality but if we can get the ball down and get our passing game going we will trouble a lot if teams.

As far as 300/1 shots go that’s not bad given McFadzean is liable to lapses in concentration and Grabban takes penalties

Well he is a born again christian, and as such he cant work on the sabbath on religious grounds, however, Forest lodged an appeal directly to the Vatican and it appears the holy father himself has granted express permission for him to appear as long as he says 3 hail Mary's and sacrifices a goat in the dressing room at half time.
