A 'not very good' team does not find themselves in third in the PL after 27 gsmes, and doesn't easily win a PL game 7-0, whatever the circumstances

The great thing is we’re at home. Surely we’ll get an atmosphere going for this one.

C’mon, we can beat these thugs at home!

Jack Taylor is a complete còck. Left Barnet in the shìt - he can fùck off and apologise to the Ipswich fans.
They’re bang average.

Was looking forward to the queue of Massey Fergusons outside the Amex but hey ho it is the Forest instead

I hate to go all Arsenal style celebration police but if you remember how upset Forest got when De Zerbi was bouncing around the City Ground two years ago, and now here they are practically doing a lap of honour for beating Ipswich Town's 2nd XI on penalties.
Oh. Jammy basterds.

Something very dislikable about this Forest team with Yates, MGW and co… Operation revenge is on.
And after failing to beat 10 man Exeter or Ipswich reserves as opposed to us doing Chelsea and Newcastle suggests the football Gods should smile on us.
We are going to need the Amex rocking for this one and I think it will be.

What an absolute f***ing muppet for that 5th penalty. He's taken one and missed one this year. It's a pressure penalty - don't weakly pass/side foot it to that side. Hit it hard and true. Pathetic.
That said, the players will be up for Forest. I will be. Flukey Forest with two penalty wins.

Don't be stupid. They are 4th FFS.
Remember when we had an outstanding side including a world cup winning midfielder? We finished 6th that season.
On the plus column, that was MASSIVELY unconvincing from Forest.

Redemption for us from the 7-0 and a miserable defeat at home to Everton came by knocking Chelsea out of the cup.
Redemption for Minteh after that penalty came by scoring the equaliser against Newcastle.
Hopefully that theme continues in the quarter final.

Third in the Premier League - toughest side we could have drawn. At least it's at the Amex but so tight as to who goes through to the semi-finals.
Let’s see where they finish. It’s a bang average league this year. We’d be top 4 easily this season with the squad we had that year.
Ipswich are useless tossers!
That is a shit rule.
At the start of a match, they toss once. The winner gets to choose whether to start with the ball, or which end to start at, and the loser gets to choose the other, right? They should do the same with penalties.
Their results since thrashing us haven't been great though.
Beat 10-man Exeter on penalties.
Beat Ipswich on penalties
PL - one draw and two defeats.

The football Gods don't particularly like us, though.
