Hopefully Dom’s knee is okay as well. Could very well see Cherniti starting on Saturday.
Rest people against Luton and Arsenal, full strength for Brentford and Sheff U would be my personal preference.

Expect there will be a dramatic drop in energy from the players on Saturday though.

Via a dodgy VAR decision? I can't think of anything funnier if it kept them up :lol:

Beat the others. Lose to Luton via an Ashley Young conceded penalty.

Operation: Relegate Forest in the funiest way possible

I imagine we may come back to reality on Saturday as well. Tough to maintain that level of energy. If Luton win in the weekend and we lose, I think we have to go full strength for them.

Saturday could be interesting with injuries. Dom has been dealing with a knock on his knee (looked like it was bleeding during the match too), Myko probably done for the season, Tarky has been dealing with back spasms, and Beto on head injury precaution.

It might happen but luton winning and us losing has about a 10% chance of happening. Let's just get to Saturday basking in this before we start worrying again

Fair point. Been so used to being concerned about other teams fixtures and ours this time of year.

Feeling a lot more stress free compared to this time yesterday.

Wolves in a very poor run of results since getting knocked out the cup. Everything still possible. Forest should loose to City

Obviously it's all subjective but Betfair have Brentford at 2.98 and Luton at 3.8. So that's an 8.83% chance of us losing and Luton winning

777 is something of a betting odds savant is a thing about him as a poster.

So from the odds a betting house has on the two results, he's able to understand that as a percentage, which actually comes out LOWER than the 10% a previous poster guestimated.

It's absolutely greek to me, but I've come to trust and rely on 777 whenever he says something about betting houses and their odds, and invariably despite what you hear about say OPTA or whoever else, the betting houses always have the best and most reliable 'super computer' models.
