SKRam Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 Four pages only........what’s going on, is this a new tactic like our revolutionary corners? Be 20 pages long any other year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be 20 pages long any other year? The calm before the storm? This isn't a normal year. No game is more about the fans than the local Derby and without us I feel it loses almost everything. We can't pretend it's normal. Perhaps the sadness of that makes people reluctant to post much? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be 20 pages long any other year? The majority of people on the forum would probably be going to the game 'normally' and excitedly making preparations for the evening. Nice as it is just flicking the tv on at 7 45, it doesn't stir the match day interest like heading to the ground and riding the gauntlet. Plus there is possibly a little complacency because we aren't in with a chance of getting into the play offs and we are relatively free of relegation fears for the moment...maybe feels almost like a free hit after the another night. Definitely won't hurt as much if we lose tonight as it would normally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair enough but it’s sport which has no doubt saved many, no matter how bad we were (past tense??). When we had no football it was far worse. Having something to look forward to should be celebrated, whilst no fans has taken some getting used to, once the game kicks off I’m totally engaged! But as @AbuDerbyDave suggests our vastly improved form is almost boring ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Van der MoodHoover Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 A match between 2 teams who hardly ever score or concede, neither of whom are going either up or down. Can't understand why there isn't a pandemonium of excitement, me.... ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve How Hard? Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 Surprised we haven't had a visit yet from one of our resident Forest fans. @Red_Dawn and @eezzeetiger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ambitious Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 The faux outrage from Forest fans on Rooney calling them 'Notts' is bordering a genuine mental health prognosis. Never seen anything like it. Grown men crying about being called Notts rather than Nottingham... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RamNut Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 Clever strategy from the fans. if we lose we can claim we weren’t fussed and that it was just another irrelevance in an already irrelevant season. If we win, then we can pile in and give them some proper grief. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Sheriff Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 They know it.. We know it. Tonight there is a solid chance the trophy returns to its rightful owners. COME ON YOU RAMS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
desirelines Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 How are we feeling about tonight? I’m tentatively optimistic. Both teams in decent form. I don’t think there will be many goals in it. Could be a scrappy 1-0 either way I reckon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tonight there is a solid chance the trophy returns to its rightful owners. COME ON YOU RAMS Both teams have had similar seasons, albeit ours with a little more off the field nonsense. Either team will feel like they're playing a weaker side, because both teams have by-and-large been flat out bad to inconsistent for the majority of the season. Unfortunately, like us, they've significantly picked up over the past few weeks too. It's arguably the hardest game between the two sides to since we both entered the Championship in what seems like a million years ago. No team can claim to be dominant. For all our good results recently, we got smacked in the mouth by Rotherham. We are two points behind them with a game in hand. I can honestly say no game has ever been so close to the famous Spiderman GIF: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redraw the city lines to cover West Bridgford and see if they still want to be called Nottingham Forest when the value of their house has dropped by a third!

Both in very good form Both teams in the bottom 6 for goals scored Both teams in the top 6 (as in lowest number) for goals conceded Head says nailed on 0-0 Heart hasn't decided yet. Yes indeed. A straight line prediction would say 0-0 written all over it. However, 1 lapse, and it's a goal and then the game opens up. I for once actually fancy us to score from a corner or a free-kick. Maybe CKR, maybe Waggers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bald Eagle's Barmy Army Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 I've got a good feeling about this one - comfortable win with a clean sheet now that Clarkey is back in the starting 11. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
