^ this. The longer the game goes on, the more nervous the ground will become. This will be increased if news of a Bournemouth goals comes in. 

A nice goal before the 15th minute would be lovely please lads!

Not sure how everyone is feeling but I'm getting more nervous now before every game and those nerves start straight after the last game!

I'm feeling nervous too. For a team looking at auto promotion, with our record over the last 5 months, this should be a routine win. No problem. But, you know...

I know that everything should be in our favour. We are on great form, Swansea are leaking goals, we are at home. It all should go according to plan! But, I've supported Forest long enough to know it rarely goes according to plan! Still, again, it all seems different this season, under Cooper.

I will be singing my throat raw and getting behind the team no matter what. I just can't help being nervous!

I don't know what I'm going to be like in that Hull ground if we have a chance at automatic promotion on that last day

I'm not allowing myself to even think about that! And I'm really not looking forward to Tuesday night at all. I found watching the Fulham game from my armchair complete torture. It was like all my hopes and dreams of the last 25 years were dependent on every kick of the ball on that pitch in London. After we scored when Bournemouth were losing I said to my missus that I wished the next two hours of my life could completely disappear.

Same, absolutely the same! I want to enjoy it, and I'm trying to just take a game at a time but . . .

I feel the same way but simply because we have been accustomed to 23 years of failure. This is a different team with a different character we arent used to. This Forest team doesnt fear any opposition and for that reason we shouldnt either. Not easy but just try to enjoy the end of the season, we know they will give it everything they can.

Feeling absolutely sick with nerves.

All sorts can happen before, but I'm just not sure how I'll cope next Tuesday working in Bournemouth.

Were in pole position, win our games and nothing needs to go our way. We have our destiny in our hands.

Steve Cooper says Colback, Zinckernagel and Surridge are doubts for Saturday. Grabban ruled out for the rest of the season. #nffc

I watched the game back yesterday and after the match Coops was chatting to Zinc and I’m pretty sure his words were “yeah, I’ll be fine”, or something to that effect. 

Losing Colback might not be a bad thing, Christie will attack him and maybe someone with a bit more pace like Djed or Laryea might be better suited.

Out of the 3 its Surridge that is the concern, all 3 strikers injured and no real replacement.

Surridge would be the most difficult to replace given our sudden shortage of strikers. If all three are out/rested what do we think.

Layrea comes in for Colback, Lolley for Figs and Cafu? We'd be a bit short up top with one of Garner or Cafu AMC and Lolley up front. Silva or Mighten to start?

In that case can you risk him then though? Or do you go with Silva or Mighten? (or Cafu and push Lolley further forward)
