Match Thread Notts Forest 0-2 Everton. Tue Dec 30th. 7.30 pm

[blue to the bone]

Have ye all come down from the excitement of yesterday. What a game that was. Edge of the seat stuff. Are you ready for more.
This one may not be a whole pile better as we travel to take on our old gaffer Sean Dyche and his Forest side who we stuffed 3.0 just a few weeks ago.
Problem is the players who made that happen wont be available!
Jack maybe back from illness but after that it doesn't appear we will be any stronger.
Injuries and Afcon have deflated us a bit.
But the show must go on. Keep a clean sheet and see what happens .
Nice to do the double over these tory scabs though wouldn't it. Horrible lot.

They have a far stronger squad than we do and a decent home atmosphere. They should beat us comfortably, however they have the pressure of a relegation battle which may make them nervous, although I doubt our ability to get on the front foot and exploit it. 3-0 Forest with Gibbs-White running the show

“Illness”

Another post Christmas borefest on the cards.
Then resurgent Brentford next.
Injuries, AFCON and our standard pathetic short sighted recruitment has really peed on our Xmas chips this year.

Think this could be very difficult for us with the squad available. Throw in the fact they need a win a lot more than we do, and it's hard to make the case for us getting much from the game.

Need to score some goals, not scored for 3 games ;-(

A strikers though
Blackburn had the fearsome SaS - Shearer and Sutton
We have B&B - bed and breakfast

 

[Yarrgh]

I think we will win in an absolute bore fest of anti-football.

Someone will get a second yellow (both cards were undeserved) and fume levels will be maintained.

Ev-Er-TON!

They have more in attacking positions, so I’d expect them to win really.

 

[GoldenToffee]

Unfortunately we only just nicked a draw against Burnley. Forest are miles better than them and have actual attacking players. We beat them 3-0 recently, I fear they may do us in similar fashion here, much to Dyche's delight.

 

[NathDogg]

Would love us to do the football masterclass merchant again, but can’t see it with the injuries and afcon, and the squad they have at their disposal, even thought Dyche will manage them and their expectations down.

Need McNeil and dibling to step up and do much more, which is why dibling should have had more minutes as he looks rusty.

Maybe we change the shape and go with two up top?

Take a point right now tbh.

Merry feckin Christmas!

 

[micknick]

Thought we’d win easily yesterday and thought we’d struggle at Forest. So who knows

 

[MACCA75]

This is a big game for Tarks and Garner. Both on 4 bookings, this is the last game when 5 bookings gets you a ban.
