Liverpool - Nottingham Forest

[jurgen rober]

Please to God let us WIN at that place! Never happened in my life time!! Still remember being 2-0 up there and the scum getting a 2-2 draw. Technically we won the European Cup tie there as it was 0-0 meaning we went through and the European champions were knocked out in the first round!

I think you’ll find we were the European champions they qualified by winning the league, we had finished 2nd

I think you will find you are wrong Dach.

Forest were the league champions and Liverpool were the European Cup holders. September 13 1978 at the City Ground where we won 2-0 to the Scouse. The players were all looking forwards to their first foray in Europe and we got drawn against the scouse instead. Watch I Believe in Miracles.

A bit dodgy in Stanley Park that night eh Tricky (the second game at Anfield).

But like the players on the pitch we fought like Lions.

My friend got his eardrum perforated after getting kicked in the head. We complained to the police who just said F OFF. Went back for the league game in December when we lost our unbeaten run and it was just as bad. Fans getting dragged into the hedges just outside above the car park and the police just turned a blind eye.

Sadly Sniff I couldnt get to the away game due to work not letting me have the time off to go.

I was at the City Ground though and we fought like lions all along Arkwright street too

I agree with us going with a back 3 of our M’s , Milenkovic , Murillo and Morato , Aina and Moreno as the wingbacks with a box midfield of JWP ,Yates ,Anderson and MGW . Going to be a really interesting Game probably tell us alot about how we are going to approach this season against the Top Half teams away from home .

Chris Wood has a game in America at midnight on Wednesday so he is a doubt.

You lot have made me feel young again!
I was at the CG game but was a mere youngster of 13 in the bridgford end.
My cousin may well have been with you guys though!


However, my hatred of the Scouse relates to two other reasons though-
Firstly, getting us banned from Europe just at the time cloughie had rebuilt another decent team in the mid 80’s (historically, probably a massive game changer for a provincial club like us and from which we are only now starting to recover); and secondly for Hillsborough where those innocent tragically died but also where I saw behaviour we aren’t allowed to repeat now the narrative has been changed after 30 years of whining.

But let’s no disappear down that rabbit hole or my newly found youthful joy will be lost again!

Taiwo and aina are in Rwanda this afternoon. Both it and Cincinnati where woods friendly is, are about the same flight time away, Rwanda is only 2 hours time difference though.

Does that affect aina as well or will all three be on first class flights back straight after the games and back in training Thursday? 


Although we’re not close in terms of quality, salah will be having to return from Botswana (double the time of Nigeria) Alison is Paraguay tonight etc 

All the internationals are professionals and I’m sure the team now has it all worked out

Don't they mainly fly 1st class on private jets these days? Probably on flights with beds

Presume they don't bother trying to acclimatise to the change in time zone either.

Ola starting for Nigeria, Taiwo on the bench.
