Lew-T

He is Chris Moyles level annoying. But at least CM gets things right…

Bit of a bustling player with glimpses of quality too. Similar to Pring in a way.
 

Definitely more to come aswell.

6th no ball from Jadeja. 

How?

Great innings from Pope. What sort of lead gives England half a chance?

Anything above 200.

Well batted from Pope. Just saw a City shirt too.

Lost count of the number of times Conway would make a run only to be ignored.

Often the players aren’t close enough to make the pass. I’m sure Conway receives the ball more from Vyner and Dickie.

The problem isn't just a striker we have no real goal threat from the wings. Sykes is a huge miss for us.

How long is he out for? I thought it was a few weeks.

Didn’t like the subs tonight mind. Bring on Wells and leave Conway on…

I think we are a handful of signings away from being a very very good side. 

Yeah the signs are there. Again like all season, we need more in the final third.

Ahhh if Pring had stepped over for that chance at the end. Wells was in for a finish

Cam Pring brilliant again.

Solid half that. Fancy us down their right hand side with the way it’s going…

Not sure if MGW is really injured either…

He’s not. On the bench for Forest tonight

Hi all, 

A Forest fan in peace. I’m looking forward to the game tonight, it should be a good old fashioned cup tie with no VAR to ruin the match. I see some are speculating on injuries - we’ve got a few. We are down to one striker, Wood with Callum Hudson Odoi on the wing. MGW I believe is still injured, Elanga is out and of course Awoniyi. We’ve also lost 6 players to AFCON. Other than that, we can’t defend and all our goalkeepers are crap. Nuno will play a strong team, mainly cos we don’t have much option. Probably 4231:

Turner

Montiel - Omabamidele - Murillo - Tavares 

Yates - Mangala

CHO - Danilo - Dominguez

Wood

I have fond memories of BC matches - the 2 v 1 win in our promotion season is the moment we started to believe something special was happening. Lyle Taylor had his only good match for us and his penalty gave every Forest fan a heart attack. Good luck and let’s hope for a rip roaring entertaining FA Cup tie.

That keeper of yours is a bit of a car crash from the games I have come across.

They've quite a few missing but will still put out a very good team.

Tougher game than West Ham who managed one shot on target iirc and were bullied, this lot will have a lot more about them and better going forward even without their missing players. 

Losing Williams is a big blow.

I think they'll get a couple or three and I'll go for a 0-2 score and hope I am as crap at predicting results as I normally am.

 

Not sure if MGW is really injured either…

I was never a fan of SC when he was at City... 

Can I ask why?

You just knew this was gonna happen.

England doing England things in India.

Fantastic player for us and first name (after John Atyeo) on my all time BCFC players list.

Every day of the week.

He was by far the best player I have seen play for us & I saw 7 years of Gerry Gow.

Fair enough. 

I didn’t see him live, so can only go by stats. Just surprising you have that opinion when he wasn’t here very long, with his best years behind him at that time.

Must have been some player.

Agree with pretty much all that Graham, although he wouldnt get in my all time team ahead of Merrick, Collier, Hunter.

Im nit picking though ! Boody good player, and was humble enough to play Toolstation after such a great career.

 

Hunter was here 2-3 years wasn’t he?

I know it’s a generation thing so your opinion will differ to mine. But the guy was 33 when he arrived here. 

He cannot be in your all time City team. Surely?

Another sell out.

I must admit that I have never heard this before, a friend of mine shared it on Facebook this morning 

I imagine those who supported the club back in the 1980s will have many memories stirred by this 

 

Sounds more like 50s and 60s.

Won it tonight against Judd 10-7.

Cracking game between two of the current best.

Some of the decision making with his feet and kicking in general needs improving though.

Just for balance of this thread…
