Cup Tie With The Sheep On The Box

Few Forest fans could believe the result the lads pulled off at Manchester City, but as this was sinking in we went and got drawn with Derby at the sheepdip in the next round.

To the surprise of few, this one has been selected to be screened live by Setanta, as confirmed on the official site. A little less predictable however, is that the time of the game has been moved to 7:45 on friday 23th January. Amid speculation of a 1pm kick-off enforced by the local plod, it remains to be seen how well the game will be policed.

As each day passes it looks more likely that City Ground legend Nigel Clough will be the man to take the vacant manager’s post at Prideless, adding yet more spice to an already mouthwatering fixture.
