I hope we f***ing thrash(/win reasonably comfortably/scrape 3 points) them.

Forest have to play Fenerbahce on Thursday. Hopefully they will be knackered for Sunday.

If Slot finally beats Forest, then we really have turned some sort of corner

New manager bounce. I know they probably statistically arent an actual thing but I hate playing teams with new managers.

Klopp was livid with our players after that game. One of the angriest we've seen him.

Does seem to work for United, I guess absolutely grinding your team into the most miserable state possible for at least 18 months before changing is key.

United's new mananger bumps tend to dissipate when the new guy is made permanent. Their players have form for trying hard for the interim and then clocking off when he's in post and they don't have to impress anymore.

Pereira got their gig.

Good spot, that should balance the home advantage out a bit. 

I think we'll win. We've definitely found some confidence and energy in our play lately. 

Gomez will score his first goal.

CL playoffs this week too, glad we avoided those. Newcastle will be stretched thin

Altho it's against Qarabag so they should be able to win that without too much effort I suppose.

Hopefully they remembered to include check in suitcases. Wouldn’t want to be going all that way with just hand luggage.

Yes. It's very much like peeling back the layers of the onion.

Let's hope the onion core is a fine one.

Even before Clough I always hated Forest. I think it was because when you got bubble gum football cards their players always seemed to be posing with a block of flats in the background and it looked ridiculous. Jim Barron. Peter Hindley. Ian Storey-Moore. Apartment nonces the lot of em. The only acceptable backgrounds in one of those cards is a stand or a floodlight. I think I might try and track some of em down on eBay and send em to Arne. Fuel his anti-Forest ire even further.

To be fair, Storey-More is a perfect name for a block of flats.
