    Really looking forward to tonight, to the extent that I've just read the programme online. Not read one for years, but this is a 'bumper edition' or words to that effect, given the opposition. It should be a great occasion when the players from '79 are on the pitch pre match. Hope the game lives up to the hype, at least from a Forest perspective.

    Do we ever beat teams from Scandinavia unless it’s in a final of course.

    Chicago: history major.

    We beat Malmo at the City Ground in 1995, albeit only scraping through the tie on away goals due to losing at their place.

    I really hope we come to play today. Hopefully the management team have a plan to break down defensive teams. I would assume that we would be on the front foot. Still don't know who is available and who is injured. I hope we put them to bed early so we can do some rotation as Brighton and the Wooly Wolves bastards are coming up so we still need some decent results there to pull ourselves away from trouble.

    Should be a good atmosphere either way. McAtee has to show what he has. And hopefully he can develop a little bit of robustness.

    Having said that...any win will do.

    Chicago: Enjoying a day off.

    I was going to have a quid on 2-0 with Morato scoring anytime - hoping he would emulate Murillo's Poo sample and beast one in from a corner - but I was hoping for rather more than 45-1.

    I am assuming three at the back with Abbott and Cho wing backs?

    We shall see. Bit unbalanced but who isn't nowadays...

    Chicago: Wibble.

    Caught a bit of Woodcock's interview on Sky. Sounded like he'd had a cheeky sherry or two (but not in a bad way). He mentioned that he and Viv had been to see Robbo in hospital and that he isn't very well.

    Attacking the Trent End 1st half? Was that our doing or theirs?

    Shady recommended www.hesgoal-tv.space, which has been good, but some of the ads are a bit dodgy.

    McGovern mentioned that Robbo was in hospital and that he’s not expected to come out again.

    Given the side picked, we look comfortable with one or two nice movements, a goal would be helpful though (stating the obvious I know)
