Nottingham Forest fans pile in on 'naughty' Steve Cooper decision vs Luton

Steve Cooper has announced his starting line-up for this afternoon's Championship clash between Nottingham Forest and Luton.

Forest currently sit in fourth place in the league on 67 points with Luton closely following them in fifth on 65 points. A win for Forest would see them leapfrog Huddersfield in third, who hold a two-point gap on the Reds but have also played two more games than Cooper's side.

There is a change at the top end of the pitch as Lewis Grabban returns to the first-team for the first time since returning from injury.

Here is how Forest line up this afternoon: Samba; Worrall, Figueiredo, McKenna; Spence, Yates, Garner, Colback; Johnson, Davis, Grabban. Subs: Horvath, Laryea, Zinckernagel, Surridge, Mighten, Cafu, Lolley.

Forest fans have since had their say on the team news:

jtweets92: Grabban 1-0, bobble off his shin.

AC1865: Is that the 3-4-3 I spot.

Willh1985: Glad Davis has stayed in and the only change I would have expected Cooper to make would be to bring Grabban back in. To be fair Zinc isn't a bad choice off the bench.

Frency_FPL: Why are people celebrating someone being dropped? Embarrassing.

Pearce: Naughty team that.

Conor O'Hara: No Zincs today, interesting decision. Grabban up top as well for Davis to play off. Could be very bright today.
