    Not sure our snow flake team will be able to cope in the intense atmosphere for this but you never know.

    I just wanted to say fair big Sam for acknowledging that he's not better than pep and klopp but he is just as good. Very humble

    Did anyone ask him about his rating, compared to NJ (of blessed memory)?

    Look on the bright side, when we last played Forest away in May back in the dark days of 2009, there were genuine fears that it could be the club's last ever match.
    The 2,000 Saints fans that went that day were in fine form with plenty of gallows humour despite the 3-1 loss.
    This is from a match report...

    "The strike brought some cheer to 2,018 Saints fans who were in buoyant mood despite the club starting next season in League One on minus 10 points and still looking for a buyer to save them from extinction."


    We are far from being in a similar predicament and i'm already looking forward to next season with a sense of adventure. COYR!

    Or perhaps it is a sign that SFC fans want to.watch a once in a lifetime the Coronation of a king as these eventos don't come around too often!

    I was there! Genuinely the most pissed I've ever been for a game, it's a small miracle we were allowed in. (Which in no small part led to the end of a relationship I was in at the time due stupid shenanigans and tomfoolery.)

    Ended up in a very dodgy forest pub but they were good as gold to us. Had a soft spot for forest since

    It'll be king Billy's turn in about 20 years so possibly more common than during the previous incumbent's reign

    Far be it from me to go all off topic on the Match Day Thread but Charlie is 74 yrs old. The Republicans might have to endure all this again in way less than 20 years.

    What an appalling choice of name and all the connotations around it!! Would have been better to have named this son, Usain given this guy's phenominal achievements in athletics and widespread popularity.

    Even a reign of 16 years will take Carlos III into his 90s.

    We’re hoping to do away with all this crap before that point.

    It’s interesting to see the voice of republicanism is actually being given some airtime now, you wouldn’t have had that a few years ago.
