    Official Matchday thread: 38. Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest. Sunday 28th May. Kick off 4:30pm.

    Well I managed to get a ticket for a reasonably sensible price even if it was in the Palace section a few blocks down from the Forest fans. Our lot were very very noisy. Not a ground I've been to before - it felt like a proper 80s / early 90s football stadium compared with many of the...

    Even from the mid 90s I can remember the fun and excitement of being linked with an overseas player in Four Four Two or Match magazine, then trying to find out as much as possible about him on a dial up connection from my bedroom, in between searching for b00bs.

    Sorry - I chucked an edit in but the thrust of my post remains the same. Yes, we came good. But it was a day and age of teams that were broadly of the same standard and before Sky TV and middle-eastern money men rocked up.

    Possibly swimming against the tide here but I would like Leicester to stay up on the basis their fans generally seem a better bunch than Leeds and, let's be honest, the rivalry just isn't there compared to when have played Derby over the years. They are also a good template of a provincial club...

    Final shout if anyone is reading this and has a spare ticket - otherwise I'm going to end up in the pubs around the ground dealing with touts.

    I'm just outside London with no plans for tomorrow and could easily get to this - if anyone has a spare ticket they fancy selling at face value, send me a PM. Going out for a bit now but will check in later. Hope that didn't break any forum rules.

    Emmanuel Bonaventure Dennis

    I might be swimming against the tide here - but he's a good player. We need to work out how to get the best out of him.

    Pub In London for Semi Final First Leg

    I will be in the big smoke for this one with my old man. Any Forest friendly pubs in or near to the west end? Someone mentioned the Sports Bar at Marylebone Station...

    Sustainability

    It's pointless climate virtue signalling and no-one really gives a sh1t. About 65% of the World's emissions come from 3 countries - China, India and America. Perhaps people can go and protest outside their embassies, or something.

    Jesse Ellis Lingard

    Think he's building up and looking good. No complaints here.

    Morgan Anthony Gibbs-White

    My view is this will still happen. I am not ITK. Will probably have to wait until the middle of next week now though.

    It’s ADIDAS (again!) and KAIYUN SPORTS not MACRON, not BOXT, or UNHCR

    Please not a gambling sponsor. They just look so naff and tacky.

    Taiwo Micheal Awoniyi

    Agreed that £15 million for Davis (who can't get anywhere near the AV first team) is a piss take, especially if we are getting Awoniyi for £17 million. £5 million or £8 million would be more realistic. Surely Taylor will go. I saw him at Gatwick the other day with his Montserrat team mates...

    Incident Involving Billy Sharp

    Totally awful completely unprovoked assault when he seemed to be looking in the other direction. Deliberately shoulder charged and knocked to the ground by some fat bloke during the pitch invasion. Thankfully caught on Sky cameras. Decent sentence and lifetime ban for the twat who did it please.

    Richmond Mamah Laryea

    Richie Laryea Am I correct in thinking that we finally saw this chap take to the field last night, and that when we did everyone seem reluctant to pass to him, notwithstanding the fact he seemed to make some good runs? The crowd cottoned on to this, to the point there were ironic cheers on the...

    Ethan Shea Horvath

    His distribution isn't as good as Brice but all other aspects of his game are fine, at this level. Would probably look for a new No 1 if we go up, I just don't think either commands their area well enough to do it week in week out in the PL.

    Carlos Miguel Ribeiro Dias - Cafú

    He plays with such passion and enthusiasm, a real crowd favourite - if only he could convert some of his chances. I don't like the way the commentators made snide remarks when he came off the bench.

    The Joe Lolley Retirement

    It's like having a quality new signing, which at this stage of the season could be the difference.

    Just Can't Get Enough

    Will this become a Forest anthem like Mull of Kintyre / Lost that Lovin Feeling? Where did it come from? Who started it? Is there any link to Nottingham or was it just a case of someone controlling the music at CG randomly playing it after a win and the fans picking up on it?

    Brennan Price Johnson

    Will he stay if we go up? I sincerely hope so.
