Guys are we supporting Fester for this game - to maximise the gap between Forest in the relegation zone and the next worst team?

Or are we still holding out for Florist and Leicester to go down, so supporting Everton??

It’s actually not too complicated:

Can someone cleverer than me (i.e. anyone) list the possible permutations of the possible outcomes of Wednesday v Derby and Barnsley v Peterborough which give us what we need. 👍

So what are you saying? They’ll go full throttle but not necessarily with their key players? 

Pretty much.

Weds will want to go into the playoffs with momentum so expect them to be full throttle. What they won't do though is risk injuries of key players, that would be silly.

Derby are on FIRE

Last weekend in May, London will see Forest relegated at Palace and a glorious Derby win at Wembley.

This.

So many late goals conceded, we should be safely tucked up in the playoffs by now.

Thank God you brought your TARDIS Doctor. Set the controls for Pride Park 30/7/22.

Derby 2 Portsmouth 0

Portsmouth have only won one of their last 5.

Forest are a detriment to any division they're in.

Like a honking jobbie floating in the bowl, it doesn't matter where the toilet is, the only solution is to keep flushing until it's no longer there to ruin your day.

It's an enduring image. And remember, always s*** on the red side of the Trent. 💩

Florists losing as usual.

it will come down to goal difference if the teams are level on points IMHO  😑

Wise words.

Forest are the next Scunthorpe, it's all over bar the fire sale.

Agree it's stood the test of time. Wherever I go wearing dcfc gear, everyone knows straightaway what it is and has something to say about it despite the absence of the club name.

I think there's still a realistic path to the playoffs:

Bolton (72)
+ Shrewsbury (H) 3
+Accrington (H) 3
+ Fleetwood (H) 3
+ Bristol R (A) 1
- 82

Derby (72)
+ Burton (H) 3
+ Portsmouth (H) 3
+ Sheff W 0
=78

Peterborough (73)
+ Ipswich (H) 0
+ Bristol R (H) 3
+ Barnsley (A) 0
= 76

So far, completely correct young man, top marks. 🍻

Playoffs here we come

Down down, Forest are down...

if our players turn up expecting to roll them over because they are little old burton we have lost before the whistle has blown.

Not sure I agree. We've been too respectful too many times this season.

I think we can all agree that Liverpool are a wonderful club. Who can forget them clapping Derby after we lost out on penalties at Anfield just a few months ago - what a great bunch of lads.

Let's hope they murder Not Florists.

Derby 5 Burton 0

The kit manufacturers look like the made up companies Forest have started to create to bypass P&S through rogue sponsorships.

Derby County should sponsor their shirts, that would be hilarious 

Would it help if the players pretended Burton were Forest?

They do play by the Trent...

These local derbys are a complete lottery that’s the problem we’ve got. Somehow we need to release the tension from the local rivalry and that’s a lot to do with showing respect for them and their fine town, and a bit of humility as the big local rivals. A short ceremony before the game is the way. Warne can buy a keg of Marston’s pedigree to be ceremoniously driven onto the pitch say in a golf buggy applauded by the Derby squad and put on a stand in the semi circle before the game.  Just before kick off each of our players pours a small glass (it’s what Jonah Barrington did before some of his biggest games). Then they line up on the half way line, haka like, but instead of sticking their tongues out and snarling at the Burton lot they smile appreciatively as they sip the nectar from the sweet gypsum-infused waters of the Trent and say in unison “a fine drop of ale fellas and much better than anything our town has ever produced” (then under their breaths, “oh except for that bangin’ China the queen (rip) loves and them fighter engines that did for Goering and oh those dull and dark paintings by the Wright bloke - and Colin Todd obviously  ”). Then Richard Keogh (in receipt of a fee of £2m)  lands by parachute not very close to the semi circle (he missed obviously), drinks the rest of the keg (36 pints) stares at a few people gormlessly then gets into the golf buggy and drives in a very wiggly line towards the tunnel running over both Rammie and Ewie on the way before turning the buggie over and crushing himself. The carnage is quickly cleared, the Burton players are confused and traumatised by the spectacle and McGoldrick scores two hat tricks in the first half (yawn)

This should be the pre-match entertainment before every game. Poor Rammie and Ewie lol.

Bolton (72)
