FA Cup SF Draw | Nott'm Forest | Sun 27 April 16:30 | ITV1

[tregyblue61]

Just received this from City

Saturday is usually a 17:15 KO.

I think we'll be on Sunday. KO sometime between 15:00 and 16:00.

 

[Eaststander1]

Been there done that !!
However? Is it a new ground ;)

Yep, York City moved to the newly built York Community stadium in early 2021.

They have scraped through the last 3 rounds on penalties against Exeter, Ipswich and Brighton - They lost 5-0 at Bournemouth and we beat them comfortably 3-0 in the middle of our really bad run - clearly they have also had some good results but we will be full strength this year with no Champions league tie immediately before - I think we will win .

 

[Stoned Rose]

We beat them 3-0 in the midst of our worse run of form in a decade so they aren’t world beaters

3rd best team in the league so far and cup semi finalists. Proper firm mate.

forgot the league 2 playoff final v gillingham with 60,000 blues

60,000?

We won’t be at full strength? Rodri, Stones, Akanji? Ake?

60,000?

I reckon close to

It's arguably the toughest fixture in the country right now, Forest have been that impressive, they work like trojans, and seem hell bent on Champions League qualification and an FA Cup win ..... having said that I don't think they were actually any better than us in the game at the City ground a few weeks back, even though they managed a late win, and, if we can actually deliver better finishing this time around, then we CAN knock them out .... but we WILL have to at least match their work rate, and keep that Gibbs White quiet, as he appears to pull most of their strings!

Let’s not overstate how good Forest are. They have massively over achieved this season, we showed good signs yesterday, difficult game but tougher than liverpool and arsenal? Nah

 

[BringBackSwales]

I reckon close to

You’re suggesting we had 60k out of 77k, 20 k of their end was Blues? No chance

 

[A57 the snake]

Just come home after the game like the 2000 who went to Bournemouth did yesterday a much more difficult journey, but a brilliant away end with fans desperate for City to succeed and to be there regardless of the hurdles

Not as difficult as going in 87 away on the Tuesday night, no more more than 50 of us on the special.

Definitely not tougher than either of those two. We looked pretty crap 1st half yesterday until pep realised that if you can run it's definitely a benefit as a footballer and brought on some legs. Forest are decent though, and they'll be well up for it, if we allow them to play 10 behind the ball and learn nothing from the game at theirs then we'll get beat and deservedly so.

Wealdstone FC will be hosting City fans for the semi final. Been many times and always made welcome with bbq and cheap (for London!) drinks.

 

[mimicmickmickdoyle]

Forest it is!

See you at Wembley!

Hope it doesn't go to pens.

 

[The Ultimate Club FC]

Forest arent as good as they are made out to be, i think its probably the easiest out of the clubs we could of gotten personally

I’m not suggesting any figure and I’m not really arsed to be honest, all I know is it was far more than 50/50. A lot of spectators in their end were not Gills fans, clearly.

 

[Stephen230]

Just letting everyone know, Avanti are running a reduced service on Sundays due to a lack of drivers. This means we will nailed on be Sunday.

Showing the usual 08.05, 08.20 & 09.30 trains for the 27th at the moment. The majority normally get one of those anyway.

We should be grateful it’s not the previous weekend, like the Liverpool semi year. There’s fuck all running all Easter weekend again.

 

[Corky]

There was no special in 2017 on the Monday night there.

The trains are over £200 so it doesn't really matter for most, they won't be considered.

 

[bobbyowenquiff]

Can you pay for me to go then. Thanks.

I didn't say I am happy about price rises. But it is possible to do Wembley on the cheap going by coach or sharing a car. The semi final ticket prices last year were reasonable. If you can't afford to go then you have my sympathy and I don't know how old you are. But when I was younger I tried to attend matches by hook or crook because I was skint. I am just getting bored with all the negativity on here. I am not saying you are negative but many others are. No one is forcing anyone to support City. It is a life choice.

I’d like to say it’s a shame why there’s no specials anymore for big games , but they’d only bump up the price 30% on top of the rip off prices they already charge commuters.

Me and my 2 brothers were in their end and spoke with quite a few blues but we didn’t congregate together until after the game
