Thanks, didn't know that. Good that they have it agreed in advance, a surprisingly pro-fan idea for UEFA.

I really think we’ll beat Bologna over the 2 legs.

trying to work out if its worth buying Ryanair flights to Porto. Non refundable but 50. What are Forest chances of beating Porto? And ours i suppose?

I was very much thinking the same myself yesterday. If you can afford it why not? For me it’ll be cheaper than a return train ticket to Nottingham anyway😂

Just seem too many variables at the moment

Agree with that, one to decide on after the 1st legs when it may be clearer.

If we get to play Porto, I'd go just for the food and drink.

And if Bologna beat us and you have a flight and a free couple of days, go for that anyway

Yes, better to take a punt on Forest winning, book a Cross Country return and enjoy the culinary delights of Nottingham.

A Bologna fan talks about his club, his city and its culture. Might be of interest to those heading over next week.


Not a dissimilar story to Villa's in some ways. A Villa scarf makes an appearance 8:40 mins in.
