Nathan Jones will be hoping that Sam Vokes is fit to face Forest as we are his favourite team to score against.
It looks like Lewis Grabban wont be fit and possibly Cash wont be risked either. We have no shortage of midfield options though so shouldn't be an issue.
Monday showed up our lack of fire power without a fit Grabban, so Martin will need to adapt the team to better utilise those resources that are available.
Can Forest achieve back to back wins?

How long before Byram is back ?

Got to be four weeks at least. Not even started training yet. Might be worth risking a bit of money on him next season. WHU will want to sell but nobody will pay more than a nominal fee for him given his injury record. For the same reason he can't ask for anything like the wages he is getting at the moment.
A better full back than Darikwa and Janko when he plays. Problem is he doesn't play often enough.

A fully fit Byram would be a great addition. He was having a great game against the Geordies when he got injured in September. If the deal was favourable, I would go for it. Problem is, and it is a problem for clubs at this level, you have to take gambles on players such as this. Players that Prem clubs haven’t got the time and patience for.

Worrall had a stormer for Rangers yesterday. Kind of performance Forest needed at Stoke...☹️

The team next season (and beyond) has to have Joe Worrall and Ryan Yates in its spine.

I reckon Worrall will come back from Scotland and will have become a man.

Rumour in the Dail Fail that Grabban and the Forest physio staff have had a difference of opinion over his Achilles injury prior to the Derby game. Apparently he listened to his personal trainer over the Forest physios hence he has missed the last two games.

Phew; I was worried for a minute when I first read that. Then I read it again and saw it was in the mail.

Yes, Grabban has moved quickly to dismiss it as nonsense. Fair play to him. The Fail are a scourge on the printed press.

To be fair the Sports pages in the mail aren't the worst and the Weekend TV guide is v. good; but that is still not enough reason for anybody to actually buy it.
