I think that Carlos will go 4-3-3 starting Turton, Holmes and Sinani Hogg in midfield Expect that subs will be Thomas, Pipa and Anjorin barring injuries If Thomas is fit he has to play he’s too important not too, it’s not just the set pieces it’s his pace and ability to stretch sides. |

Don’t disagree. I’m just saying what I think Carlos will do. Thomas hasn’t played 90 minutes for a month and he may want him fresh for the second half of the game. |

Would be shocked if Thomas isn’t the first name on the team sheet. Might be Holmes starting on the bench.

The only comment I will make is Forest will be more nervous than us, if we can press from the off and get an early goal, Hugh pressure will mount on Forest, they know we are good at seeing out games, and a defence to die for.
Another plus for us is the V.A.R, it is very handy to have, when you have bent refs and not get the important decisions you deserve.

If we win and go up, would we become a yo-yo club?

Not sure if there are any stats but generally the team that is already the better equipped on the field to play in the premier league wins the play off. We were better equipped than reading, I think forest are better equipped than us. Just.

Still a week and a bit to go, but what’s the news on Ward? Rhodes would be a very capable stand in, but the concern is Ward not even making the bench, then Rhodes gets crocked.
With Rhodes’s strike rate, it’s probably better to have him on the pitch for 90 mins.
Whatever happens, Carlos will have a plan…

Any news on their injury list? I think they’ve got Davis back now.

My personal feeling is we need to press very high against that back 3 like Sheffield United did in the 2nd leg. They aren't the most mobile of defenders and will concede set pieces in the process. For that reason We have to start sinani Thomas for deliveries and ward to lead from the front.

Got to fancy us here. All the pressure & weight of history on Forest. They’ve bottled it once this year at Bournemouth and did their best in the semi.
Thomas got to start. Can’t carry both Holmes & Sinani as we did against Luton in the second leg.
Play Pipa for his pace over Turton. Big pitch at Wembley.
Was also thinking that we have one big factor in our favour. Carlos on the touch line - far better looking than Cooper. You saw it when Forest blew it against Bournemouth - players looking to the touchline and seeing Cooper next to Parker, who I think is a very good looking geezer, and you could see their heads drop. Those are the fine margins that can make the difference.

The pressure and weight of expectation is all on Forest from their own fans and the media. Lots of social media posts trying to wind Town fans up about how many tickets we’ve sold etc.
For me, we go down there as underdogs despite our experiences. This should suit us. Whatever happens, all the social media posts, sound bites, media snipes mean jack; the result on the pitch is what matters and if we shithouse a 1-0 win, NO-ONE and NOTHING can change that we would be winners in the history books.

For that reason We have to start sinani Thomas for deliveries and ward to lead from the front. I think we’ll do it in waves but not sustained like the blades did - that’s too high risk for Carlos now. The blades were very aggressive and that completely rattled Forest. Would like us to match that but I don’t think we’ve got that in us. Johnson does not like a scrap, looked like he was going to start crying when he was getting kicked. We need to get on his touch and have him playing with his back to goal. |

So I've read a lot about the pitch size, and seen as Britain's Got Talent is complete shite then I looked it up... The Wembley pitch is 105 x 68. Ours iis 105 x 69 City Ground is 105 x 71 I Don't know how or if that helps but here are the numbers. All stats taken from www.football-stadiums.co.uk/ |

Much like the one circulating on the Forest forums where we are supposedly asking Derby fans to turn up and support us! It is sad and shocking how much total bollocks is believed on social media nowadays. Suppose it doesn’t matter re football matters but unfortunately people believe a right load of crap on important issues as well.  |

Tell you what.
I’ve just replayed our goal from Monday night.
There is no better taker of a dead ball than Sorba.
I’ve got a good feeling he will make a major impact in the game.
