I'd quite like to hear the thoughts of [MENTION=24136]FuriousFox46[/MENTION] or any other Forest/Leicester fans on this fixture.

Would a mutually beneficial draw be happily played out or is the rivalry strong enough to want a win?...

Was thinking earlier it could work in our favour as it will be impossible for both sides to get maximum points on the final day.

I think Leicester will have fallen out of the picture before the last day, they have tough fixtures left...reckon Forest and Bolton are the ones to worry about

I'm more worried about Bolton personally.

If it ends up in a similar situation, and either team has anything to lose/gain from a draw, I can seriously see it happening

Agree with the sentiment of this. We need to be looking at our own performances first rather than hypothesising about the potential impact of others.

There's a few reasons why Brighton fans have little to worry about this fixture.

1. There's still a lot of integrity within our game. I don't recall many instances of teams being accused of colluding to manipulate a result in this country.

2. Its only a small chance that a draw would benefit Forest and Leicester.

3. Nigel Pearson has a particular dislike of Forest. I believe he was a Notts County supporter as a kid and they retain an overzealous hatred towards us.

4. I dont believe Billy Davies has it in him to go out and tell his team to "not try" to win a football match. He is far too competitive.
