'We won't return' - Nottingham Forest fans fearful ahead of Cardiff City clash

Nottingham Forest fans have been discussing tonight's Championship clash with Cardiff City.

The Reds head into the Cardiff City Stadium battle on the back of a three-game stretch without a win and only two goals scored in those matches.

Sabri Lamouchi's side have a chance to cut the gap to Leeds United in second place to three points, with Marcelo Bielsa's fellow promotion chasers in action at Middlesbrough tomorrow night.

Forest, though, could be without key first-team trio for the match tonight, with Lewis Grabban, Sammy Ameobi and Samba Sow all doubts.

Nuno da Costa, meanwhile, is still out with a muscle injury.

That's left Reds fans fearing for tonight's game, with the club's poor run of form and injury situation casting doubt over their chances of a positive result from a resurgent Cardiff.

Here's what they've had to say on social media...

@halftimepies: Looking for somebody to talk me around to the opinion that @nffc #nffc will win tonight. Have to say currently I don't think we have much hope of a win, we may get a 0-0 as I don't see them doing much but I don't see us breaking them down either. Hope I'm wrong boys and girls.

@ScottHa26547799: If grabban is out I don't fancy walker or mighten against Cardiff centre halves, there two big bullying players! #NFFC

@123inger: If the key players that our doubts and miss out tonight, will make it alot harder to get the win. Walker,mighten and carvalho all in tonight for me.

@flet_ch: We need to start winning a few. If we drop out of the Play Offs I fear we won't return #nffc

@jonny90nffc: If Sow is out tonight I'd give Semedo a chance in that role next to Watson. Granted he's been poor since his return from injury but Watson & Yates are too similar. If Alfa can get back to his early season form we have a decent option again when Sow is injured. #NFFC

@MarcTwaite: If we go into Cardiff tonight with the right mentality forgetting the injuries to key players, it's time for other players in the Squad to step up its there Chance to shine we can beat them and take all 3 points!

@StensonDann: Need a win today boys! Got to find that winning spirit again COYR #nffc

@dj_zotov: Be watching on Sky and here's hoping for another South Wales victory to go with the fine 1-0 victory at the Liberty Stadium in Swansea last September. #NFFC

@n55ffc: Cardiff City are no great shakes but then again neither are we at the moment! Three points would be good if we’re going to keep our play-off hopes alive. COYR #nffc

@lewis_dry28: Give carvalho a full 90 mins tonight please. Get some creativity and feed grabban and he will score! #NFFC
