Fool’em Town Trap Game (A Match thread)

Winnable on paper. Especially after last year but this could be the game where we come unstuck. Not only because Morgan is a very naughty boy but because Fulham aren’t that bad and have a history of beating us at the WFCG.

I would love a comprehensive 2-0 win but I think this might be a draw.

Hope to be wrong and we welly the bastards. Although They seem to be a well run club so I have no hate towards them even though they had rapist Faheed as a chairman once. Ours just burns bakeries. No? Okay… well I hope we beat the nice chaps but feel less than 💯 might fuck us.

1-1. (Wood of course).

Chicago: Cautious.

Sounds like Nuno will be on the touchline Saturday pending a decision on his punishment.

Our last home win was against these jokers. Let's go Boys!

Chicago: Trying to rally the troops.

The BBC stats for this game say that Forest are the only club in the Premier League to have scored first in every game so far this season.

It sounded an impressive fact until I realised that half the teams would have been eliminated from this cohort on opening weekend, so long as there were no 0-0s.

We will win this with a goal from the bigman.

It would be nice to bag our first home win of the season in the ham derby. 2-1. Late winner.

Or as I like to call it*, the McCormack Gates Cup or the Knockaert Challenge Trophy.

*not really.

Feeling super pessimistic because we should win this one so I'm going for a 1-2 loss.

Surely the Chalobah Challenge?

Based on our excellent record at home recently, or that Fulham are really poor this season?

Doesn’t that mean it’s actually rather impressive indeed? for anyone at all to have that record after six games is statistically unlikely.

Taiwo and Wood?

Well that is a very interesting line up.

Wood and Taiwo. Maybe Taiwo had a smiley word with Nuno and said “God will smite thee down if you don’t play his favourite son today.”

Or the grumpy bugger saw something in training.

Looks like we are going for the bludgeon effect.

Chicago: Intrigued.

Two strikers and no real width in the team is a bold move.

Maybe it’s a 2-6-2. With Aina and Moreno pushing up when we have the ball.

Chicago: Going all out Keegan.

I would presume 4-3-1-2 with Anderson in the MGW role behind the strikers.
