Nottingham Forest fans on Twitter have been reacting to the Carabao Cup second round draw which has set up a huge clash with their great rivals Derby County.
Indeed, the Rams will travel to the City Ground later this month, and unsurprisingly a lot of fans have had something to say about this.
The last time these two sides met Forest were the victors. The Reds won 1-0 via an early goal from Yohan Benalouane.
The Reds came away with the bragging right that day, but Derby ended up finishing higher than their rivals in the league table.
This game is likely to have a lot of thrills and spills just as any other game between two clubs with a historic rivalry such as these two.
There’s another interesting sub-plot heading into this one as well. Former Forest man Jamie Paterson recently joined the Rams, and that caused some uproar amongst the Forest fanbase.
Overall the majority of supporters were excited about the upcoming game between the two clubs.

Other supporters had a tongue-in-cheek jibe at their rivals stating that the Reds should easily be able to overcome their rivals in the upcoming clash.
A couple said that it would be an easy win while another is getting ready for round three.
Round 3 here we come..
