Watford no longer look like the unheralded force of the past few CCC seasons but I still expect them to provide our goal shy squad with a stern examination and it would not surprise me if they left Trentside with all 3 points.
I'll refrain from a prediction this time, but fingers crossed we can acquit ourselves well and pull something out of the hat.

We've a goal shy squad aswell GT mate. The loan signing of Rasiak will hopefully improve us on that front though.... Wish I could go - as a fair amount of people I know will be there, plus I have friends at Nottingham Trent Uni..alas i can't and shall have to rely on updates via text! As for predictions - I won't predict the scoreline but i'm gonna stick my neck on the line and go for a draw

I remember in our relegation season you beat us 1-0 in a dire encounter at the City Ground, we then beat you 2-0 at the Vic the following March to record our first away win of the season! Could go either way this weekend, Davies, Tyson and Garner all still crocked but Andy Cole might be back so that's ok

Is it not Andrew Cole now? ;D We're looking better than I thought we would be tbh. We've had more possession than the opposition in the last two league games, and with Rasiak now on board the teams looking more balanced. Smith is playing in his preffered free role position, the defence, even without the man mountain Shittu is doing pretty well... McAnuff is one player who could give more imo, he has talent but needs to step his game up. Fuck it, I reckon 1-3 to the 'Orns ;D

Like GB says GT we have been creating chances with our Rinus Michels total football revolution. ;D Unfortunately there has been no one to put it in the net. Hopefully Rasiak can link up with Smudger as he did at Derby & provide Priskin with that physical presence upfront. Tamas has all the touches & vision but his work rate is poor off the ball at the moment & he has all the tenacity of a jellyfish. If he could improve this he would be top class. A draw again I think. 0-0 ? You & us going up would be nice perhaps with the Wolves.

My prediction shot to shit!!
3-2 Forest. Your boys definately did pull something out of the hat GT!
By all accounts it seems like we were poor generally today, esp in defence. Smith being our stand out performer as usual. Moussi ran the show in midfield apparently.

Stonking performance from Forest, I can see some seriously good offers for Moussi coming in for him in January, he's clearly a class act and could do a job in the Prem, however here's hoping he stays with us for a long time to come helps us back to the Prem. We're going to be a seriously dangerous team going forwards when all the squad is fit, we do however need another center half and a right back.
