Now before I anyone says anything I know Forest aren't the team they used to be but they are a fucking huge club to be in this division. But they got over 24 000 for their first home game. So how many do you reckon they will bring on saturday?

I also think that a lot of Town fans will turn out cos Forest are a big team. And if they do bring a lot of fans the town end really have to make a noise.

I think that there will be arund 9000 there on saturday and all the makings of a great game.

I am also quite optomistic for saturday cos we always beat the big teams in recent memory Wigan and Sheff Wed come to mind.

I would assume Forest will fill their allocation, and add in a few elsewhere around the ground so give them 3500, based on last night I'd imagine we might raise 5000, so a crowd of about 8500 is likely.....I always think that 8000 is the minimum in the CG to provide a bit of atmosphere.

Saturday, at least before 3pm, is gonna be quality.  Love the big games, like the Wendy's matches last season.  Reminds me of the early 90's matches.

A personal favourite was when we beat Blackburn 2-1 the season we went down 99/00, it was early doors, but evident like this season we had a struggling outfit, as we'd had one win in 8.

  In midfield we had Booby Howe and Fraser McHugh....they had Lee  Carsley, Per Frandsen and could call on Damian Duff.

  They didn't bring many so a crowd of about 7300.

We should get 9,000 if forest bring 3,500. That's only 5,500 swindon fans which is very possible given forest are former european champions.
If they don't bring that many then somewhere between 8 and 9 thousand.

All the people predicting 3,800 for Oldham were way out.

they've sold 1,800 already and according to woan they make loads of noise when thet're away from home so i hope the town end will be on top vocal form. i reckon it'll around the 9,000 mark, although we lost on tuesday we also showed great promise. COME ON YOU REDS!!!!

2000 tricky trees have already got tickets for Saturday, expecting loads more to pay on the day. The Forest Bandwagon is coming to town, so lock up your daughters and get ready to rumble.
