Yep.

I’m saying nothing

Forest are winning and in form, of course they're favourites.

Yeah, I fancy us to get the job done in 90 mins as well.

[brontebilly]

Forest are favourites to win the tie on skybet. Not by a massive amount though, 4/6 vs us at 11/10

Villa 8/11 and Forest 7/2 on Paddy Power.

Forest sadly very good value at that price. We are going to have to take risks the longer the game goes on and could open up for them.

Heart says we have McGinn, that could be crucial.

But we've been CL for 6 months.

I do think we’re getting a bit carried away. Tottenham was fucking diabolical, and Forest are in decent nick, but it’s 1-0. If we get the first goal - which is eminently possible - it favours us.

Yeah, get an early goal and Villa Park will be rocking. If it's still 0-0 on 67 mins, we'll all be getting a little twitchy.

[brackley]

We’re top five. They’re bottom five. We have a second leg to come where a minimum two goal win shouldn’t be beyond us.

Yet seemingly the whole country is praying and hoping that we get a good tonking as our comeuppance and just reward.

What should have been an enjoyable and exciting cup run seems to have become a toxic PR disaster for the club. How did it come to this?

[Stu]

The whole country lol

[eamonn]

Not Spurs people. They love us. Aren't we the last sharers of the Charity Shield? Lions and Cockerels together forever

Nope. Arsenal and Tottenham, 1991.
