Hope it is buzzing tonight 08:45 - Jan 16 with 5139 views | SomethingBlue | Surely every member of our fanbase now understands that it's there for us. Quite something that we could lose by a goal tonight and remain outside the bottom three – with Wolves' following couple of games just as hard as ours. So hopefully we can really go for it. Feels a shame that we'll have to try with a pretty light attack and it'd be really nice to see Hutchinson on that teamsheet in some capacity. It's a really, really difficult game but should be a belter and any kind of positive result puts us in a fantastic position in my opinion. Could not have foreseen us being out of the bottom three this quickly four weeks ago so what a boost it'd be to capitalise. [Post edited 16 Jan 8:48]

Hope it is buzzing tonight on 11:14 - Jan 16 by _clive_baker_ | It still feels ludicrous that we're talking about Brighton being winnable when it wasn't long ago we felt worlds apart from them. But in the context of the Premier league, we've only got 18 games left and if you rank them in terms of 'winnability' this probably sits in the top 1/3 given its at home and they aren't in the best form themselves, whereas we are (relatively speaking). We've taken more points in our last 6 than they have, and I would argue we've had tougher fixtures. Being objective about it man-for-man we're not favourites, but that's also true for most of our games this season. Agree with your point about the crowd though, need to be up for it from the start and shouldn't underestimate our part in it. The players feed off it, and vice versa. Chelsea was a great example, it was electric, we might not have got that version of a pumped up Delap if the crowd sit there expectantly. [Post edited 16 Jan 11:18]

Yeah get the logic of it, and probably the classic 'good time to play them' as well as they're struggling with injuries a bit themselves. Conversely they'll probably see this game as a good opportunity to end their winless streak. Like Chelsea, think this is a really important one to get off to a good start in. Let them set the tone too early and we could be in for a difficult night but rock them early doors and get the crowd pumping then we could sap the confidence out of them and make it count. |  |

Indeed but I didn't want to overcomplicate things. SB |  | |  |

"Just play the game the same way we have approached the last 3 imo" and the best way of doing that is by changing the formation and the players who played in most of those 3! |  |

Hope it is buzzing tonight on 08:54 - Jan 16 by FrimleyBlue | I actually hope we don't see hutchinson on the teamsheet tonight IF he only got on grass this week, lets not risk him imo. I know we're light, but no good risking him and potentially losing in for longer than we need to. |
Hutch is good to go. |  |

I don't get why you lot are struggling with the lineup post i put It clearly says and you've all replied after I put it.. I wasn't sure if Sitters was saying it's gonna be a strong lineup or one full of surprises, clearly the one i used was the full of surprises one, i didn't realise you'd all find that so difficult, fken ell |  |

TIFOs, banners and relentless support key factor in Forest's original survival on 11:45 - Jan 16 with 1127 views | unstableblue |
Hope it is buzzing tonight on 10:09 - Jan 16 by Wallingford_Boy | Forest fans were amazing in their home match with Liverpool the other night, be brilliant if we could make just half that noise tonight, whatever the score! |
Forest's first season back in the Prem, following a surprise promotion like ours, is seen as some of the best home support the league has ever seen in its history - with perhaps weakening atmospheres a feature of the Premier League vehicle. That season the City Ground was relentless, all stands on feet constant singing and huge and elaborate TIFOs on a regular basis. Cooper also changed system midway through season. And they just survived. Our season will be tight margins, not sure our fans have quite risen to the occasion - although excellent in a number of home game... Chelsea. Do we really want to get to the end of the season having not left everything on the terraces? Also seems Blue Action are rightly reluctant for a large North Stand TIFO after the Liverpool effort... but we need one, and we need one that celebrates McKenna - we had LAMBO!! |  |

That sounds fun. Walton Johnson O'Shea Godfrey Greaves Davis Phillips Cajuste Broadhead Hutch Delap Doesn't feel that many discussion points in there so looking forward to seeing it. Although Woolf and Morsy dropping out would probably kick a few people off. [Post edited 16 Jan 12:01]

Yeah, I thought it was fairly obvious what you had done here. Your real daft opinions for the day are elsewhere! |  |

You're probably right but i can't get out of my head that we will play Phillips as he can't play Sunday. |  |

I agree I think Burns will play tonight with Johnson coming in on Sunday. Phillips will only come in for Morsy if McKenna feels Morsy needs rest time before Sunday. I do wonder if Hutchinson may make a surprise appearance tonight. The big question is Godfrey or Woolfenden. |  |

that's a good point, quite a quick turnaround for morsy to play in both... |  |
