    Huge game for us again, but sadly also for Chelsea now.

    3 points sees us safe, but there’s a chance even a point may do it with a bit of luck.

    the similarities with last season’s penultimate weekend late kickoff game v Arsenal which kept us up are remarkable? It can’t happen again - can it?

    Sadly Chelsea in great form - I hope shit Chelsea show up this week to help us out.

    I think you'll be safe before this even kicks off.

    Burnley will lose at Spurs and Luton will lose at West Ham, especially with it being Moyes' big send-off.

    Gonna be on it from 12 - waiting to see if it's party mode by kick off or another 90mins of hell.

    Either way, can see it being a good game.

    I see this game as the toughest one out of remaining games.

    We also haven’t won an away game since Palace in February. Let’s see if we’ve actually turned a corner.

    Clearly a must win game for both sides, although I’m hoping the results at bottom of table will go Forest’s way. Take the edge off a little.

    It's almost as if the deduction appeal that was decided 2 weeks ago, but disseminated just yesterday planned it that way.

    It's a good job it's not on SKY otherwise that arguement would really have been underpinned.... Oh!

    Going to this one…. Looking forward to it. City ground and Ellend rd last season best atmosphere by a long way… Even when losing supporters were behind the team. Drinks in the county social bar possible trip to Hooters if it’s still open.

    Depends on earlier results for score prediction.

    Brighton manage to get something out of Newcastle earlier on this makes it all the more interesting.

    Forest making it hard for us today. They’ll probably be disappointed they’re not ahead.

    Has felt at times like the same immature performances we saw at the start of the season. We’ve been over confident and complacent but Forest have packed the midfield and cancelled out the value Cucurella has brought to the team lately.

    Hopefully Poch can change things at halftime. We’ve actually got options on the bench for once so he has more options to choose from.

    Chelsea getting done by the one trick from the biggest one trick pony they’ve ever produced is pure barclays.

    That’s a top response from them though. Third goal really good.

    The Reece James effect. Great first time cross.

    If Chelsea get 10 more Forest might still go down.
