It's not a problem - I just didn't realise that it could be done, that's all!
Do you think Betfairs odds of 22-1 for a Forest win are fair???????
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Got to be worth a tenner?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Gotta be, I had to sit somewhere else as your lot are bringing a good amount down, and could not have my regular ticket. So with the crowd behind forest and a weakened team you always have a chance.
Just ask Bradford
I can see nothing but a repeat of the 7-0 thrashing we doled out to ten in the 90s.
Also on the anniversary of the great Sir Brian's untimely death means it's almost a certainty.
Them, them. Doled out to them.
Admin. Can you put this on the Chelsea board, not the Chelsea FC board, please?
You'll get over 500-1 for that, Strett!!
and those odds relate to the chances of Admin actually doing anything prompty when asked!!
perhaps we could recreate the thread!
Just in case anybody doesn't know, once the team names are added and published I can't edit them.
Chelsea don't seem to have a match thread, not on JA606 anyway.
Well contrary to what I've just written above, it seems that I can edit the team names.
Still not on the Chelsea page though1
You are, RFB - just a little lower down!
TEAM NEWS
Midfielder Eden Hazard will start for Chelsea for the first time this season in their Carabao Cup third-round tie with Nottingham Forest.
Hazard, who broke his ankle in June, has made three substitute appearances in the past 10 days for the Blues, who are without the suspended David Luiz.
Midfielder David Vaughan could return from a groin injury for Forest.
Boss Mark Warburton could also bring defender Eric Lichaj and winger Mustapha Carayol.
Both teams could make numerous changes, with Chelsea likely to rest players.
That could mean opportunities for striker Michy Batshuayi and young players such as Charly Musonda and Kenedy.
Winger Pedro is unlikely to be risked because of a leg injury, while midfielder Danny Drinkwater (calf) is also absent.
MATCH FACTS
◾Chelsea and Nottingham Forest have met once before in the League Cup, with the Blues winning 2-1 the third-round replay in 1971-72 after drawing 1-1 in the original match - a campaign in which Chelsea reached the final, only to lose 2-1 to Stoke City.
◾The Blues have won 17 of their 19 League Cup against lower-league opposition (D2), including wins in each of their past nine.
◾Nottingham Forest's win against Newcastle in round two was their first League Cup win against opponents from a higher division since December 1993 after losing each of the 11 beforehand.
◾Chelsea have only failed to reach round four of the League Cup in just one of their last 11 seasons - losing 4-3 to Newcastle with Shola Ameobi netting a late winner.
◾Forest haven't progressed to the fourth round stage since 2004-05, losing in the third round last season to Premier League opponents Arsenal, 4-0.
Well, there's a bunch of cheery stats for you all!!
We don't even really need to turn up, it'll be an easy victory. Ours to lose.
As sure as eggs is eggs, Strett

about today's match. After our lackluster showing against Arsenal we're now taking on a team with actual European pedigree in Forest. Not expecting this to be easy.

Fixed it for you
Err well I guess technically Admin did
Let's hope it is a better showing than the Arsenal game last season. That was a lesson in passing and movement. Chelsea should have too much for Forest you would have thought. They'll stick a lot of younger players in who'll be looking to impress Conte as they don't often get the chance. There is a chance they freeze a little if Forest get an opportunity to get at them. Nobody gave Forest a chance at Newcastle after all...
I'd give Vaughan a run out if fit. Need him back up to speed for the Villa game.
Carayol deserves a start after his cameo on Saturday. He will get room to move in this game as I can't see Chelsea closing Forest down like teams in the Championship have been doing. They'll look to lure Forest in and hit them on the break.
Reckon 4000 Reds in the Shed End will have a ball regardless!,
4000 travelling Trickies - should be vocal support at least!!
You ain't taking it seriously?
Not taking what seriously? The forthcoming match?? This thread??? Or just life in general????
