Nottingham Forest fans have been commenting on the news that influential loan striker Keinan Davis will miss the rest of the regular Championship season.
Manager Steve Cooper confirmed the news ahead of tonight's televised clash with West Brom at the City Ground.
Davis, who is on loan from Aston Villa, suffered a hamstring injury in the Reds' 1-0 Good Friday defeat at Luton. Cooper named Sam Surridge as replacement for Davis in tonight's team, but is hopeful Davis could be fit for the season-ending play-offs if Forest finish in the top six. He is predicted to be sidelined for four to five weeks.
Phillip Zinckernagel has returned to the starting team and Steve Cook has has been named on the bench, after recovering from an ankle injury.

Here is what the Reds faithful had to say...
Sophie: "Keinan Davis out for the season then. Such bad luck!"
Craig Radford: "Terrible news. But Forest actually have options these days… surridge, grabs, mighten. Let’s not write the season off just yet!"
KC: "Keinan Davis has proven we need a Keinan Davis - heal up and hopefully we’ll see him in Garibaldi again."
Laith: "Gutted. But time for Surridge to shine!"
RedInvestor: "We're not going up without Davis in the side. Absolutely gutted."
OddsBlogg: "This sucks BIG time! Hes created so much on his own, our best offensive player. Hard to see how anyone can do anything near what he's done to our offense. Heavily rely on Johnson/Spence coming up big now."
Mardy: "We’ll just have to cope won’t we? Time for others to shine."
Psycho: "Sad news indeed but that means it’s just next man up time again."
Shaun: "This is an unbelievably big blow. No chance of play-offs. If we get there?"
Matthew Grace: "Our best player, this is huge!"
Philip Ashbourne: "Why spoil my evening."
Nick Fletcher: "He’s been the difference for us this year. Massive blow."
Conor McK: "Surridge... Time to shine."
