"There are a number of flood alerts still in place across the Nottinghamshire region as more heavy rain is predicted to batter the county. The Met Office has forecast heavy rainfall for the rest of Wednesday and into Thursday, with an amber weather warning in place until midday on Thursday, January 21. Sounding slightly ominous. It depends how well they've protected the pitch. Forest social media seems to be running as if it's still going ahead though, so fingers crossed. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

They've had covers over it for the last day or two I think so fingers crossed. Will suck if we travel down there only for it to get called off at the 5pm pitch inspections like. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

edinboro 804 Posted January 20, 2021 Share Posted January 20, 2021 I reckon it will get called off when the covers come off. That sort of warning should rule out the game being played. Link to post Share on other sites
Alves car salesman 152 Posted January 20, 2021 Share Posted January 20, 2021 Hopefully game goes ahead. Traditionally a tough place for Boro to go and get a result. Britt historically woeful against Forest as well! Link to post Share on other sites

I would happily take a draw, as you say not a happy hunting ground for us & theyre in a decent run themselves, add we'll have Brit upfront & could start, yes I'll take a draw Link to post Share on other sites

Rishworthian 166 Posted January 20, 2021 Share Posted January 20, 2021 Just had a look out of the window and it doesn't look as though it is raining much. I'm effectively at the farm in the middle of the M 62 (where it is normally a bit damp - surrounded by reservoirs is a bit of a clue) I'd guess it is a bit better in Nottingham The only "unless" is the state of the river Trent which is very close to the ground and it flooded the low lying areas of Burton yesterday Sadly I have no sauces !!

Erimus74 2,976 Posted January 20, 2021 Share Posted January 20, 2021 As bad a record as any ground we've visited, just 6 wins on their turf in 33 visits to Nottingham Our last win March 1999 with a last minute goal from Brian Deanes in a 2-1 win, before that we won 3-1 in March 1973 a 2nd divison clash, 1956, 1938, 1910 & 1907 complete our list of wins at their ground, that includes 2 doubles over them Our last visit to the City ground ended all square at 1-1, I'd happily take that now Did you know:- The late, great centre forward George Camsell made his Boro debut at home to Forest ina 1-0 win Dave Hodgson made his debut away to Forest wearing the No12 shirt he replaced Tony McAndrew in a 2-2 draw Graham Kavanagh made his Boro debut away to Forest October 1992 in a 1-0 defeat Chris Kamara made his Boro debut at home to Forest February 1993 in a 2-1 defeat Forest had 3 ex Boro players in their backroom staff during their golden era in the late 70's early 80's, Brian Clough, Peter Taylor & Jimmy Gordon Represented both teams Brian Clough Peter Taylor Jimmy Gordon Colin Cooper Brian Laws Dave Currie Paul Wilkinson Mark Proctor Chris Kamara Mike Kear Walter Tinsley who scored 49 goals in 89 games for the Boro between 1913-1921 Brit Assomalonga The full record of away visits Won 6 Drew 11 Lost 17 Goals for 30 Goals against 60 1 Link to post Share on other sites
