So. I've had a bang on the head and decided it's a good idea to attend this game.

Any advice on where to park for a quick getaway would be appreciated from anyone local?

I would probably use the multi-story at Nottingham station.

It's secure, only about 10-15 minute walk from the ground and is only £3.50 if you enter after 6pm and won't get caught up in any post-game traffic.

Alternatively, I'd park down one of the side streets of Trent Boulevard for free (just check signage for local restrictions)

Looks like away tickets sold out now before general sale so will maybe have to sneak in with the home fans...

3k in 2 days. Impressive for a Wolves side full of kids.

Got seats in the home end... Luckily my lads have Nottingham accents!

Forest have lost 4/4 in the Championship and my STH mate reckons relegation is inevitable this season.

A good chance to get a win under our belts but with it coming so quickly after Sunday's game we'll surely put a 2nd string out with plenty of U23s involved. Maybe even 4-4-2 from Bruno.

It'd be good to reward Samuels for his brace last week. Is Lonwijk still here or on loan?

I’d play Trincao. Need him up to speed sharpish

Any aggro, show them your posts off here, they'll never know your Wolves

After playing 80+ mins two days before I’d be surprised, seems an unnecessary risk.

 

[Wolvensam]

I’m interested to see how Bruno plays this one. I wonder if he may see it as a chance to progress in a cup competition and take it seriously.

The scheduling doesn’t help but it’s more favourable than it is at Christmas.

We haven’t got enough players to rotate and I feel him playing 45 or 60 minutes helps him and gives the team a far greater chance of progression.

 

[big mean bunny]

Given how early it is into a new manager and the difficulty of the starting fixtures you'd want a manager to look at this as an area to progress, both by getting through and style and formation. Especially with only one league game after before the INT break starts.

Bring him on 2nd half let him run at tired legs. Same with Traore.

Got his hands tied, hasn’t he?

I’m sure he’d like nothing more than to progress. But with literally two days between the matches (and he had a proper moan about this in his post-match interview today), he can’t exactly go full strength.

Add that to his comments about “having 15 first team squad players” from Friday and you can pretty much guarantee it’s going to be a team of kids, mixed in with the subs from today.

Hopefully we can pull a win out of the bag. Losing every game is a nasty habit to get in to, even if the performances are alright.

 

[PuntsWolf]

Back 3 can go again no problem. Not sure if anyone else not in the squad today is close.

Could do with scoring a few, building on the style and getting a win. Don’t want the the team being too weak.

Should hope with the More aggressive style of play we should fare better against weaker opposition than we would have done previously as we had no clue what to do when we were allowed to have the ball.

So is this going to be one of those rare once a season moments where it's not watchable and we have to dust off our radios?
