Tell you what, Huddersfield will be a bigger test

No way. Forest may lose but Sheffield United are a better side.

Proper cringey pitch invasion -- everyone just on their phones filming themselves and taking selfies. Absolute melts.

C'mon Huddersfield!

What have Forest won tonight?

Love em or hate them, it’s the closest they’ve been to getting back up in a generation. Not sure I begrudge them that. But I get the point they may still not make it

Sheff U should have knocked them out tonight but Forest should have killed the tie in the first leg. Forest seemed to hit a wall and Sheff U punished for not finishing them off in extra time.

Huddersfield finished higher in the league than Sheff U though who only sneaked in play offs. Hard to compare them to the Wagner team that went up.

From what I've watched of the league Forest under Cooper a comfortable 2nd best to Fulham in the league. They were nowhere when he took over

It was their biggest home game since the 90s when they played us and tonight was bigger still. No surprise how delirious they're going to be. At least they didn't beat us and get on the pitch.

When Heckingbottom took over they were nowhere, Huddersfield had a massive head start. Huddersfield are fluking it big time. They’re bottom 10 in xG and xGA. They could fluke it again but reckon Forest cleared the biggest hurdle tonight.

People on here are so out of touch in knowing what it is like to follow a shit football team.

They hadn't even finished in the top 6 since 2011. Something like 23 years away from top flight football.

Of course they might still lose in the final but these moments of joy are so few and far between.

Fulham (twice) and Bournemouth too wasn’t it?

Does anyone remember if there has there ever been a pitch invasion upon winning the premier league? Can’t picture one myself.

Huddersfield got promoted with a negative goal difference last time and scored once in the play offs.

Thought that was just a lone streaker. :D can’t say I watched that, did they clear it fast or was it an absolute arse for the players to have to get off the pitch and come out again 20 minutes later?

For us Americans your pitch invasions are pretty lame so I don't really get the crying about it going on here. Talk to me when they're carrying out the goalposts and mounting them in the public square or something similar. If I was at Anfield on Sunday and we did win the league I definitely would try to do similar.

Whatever people think of Forest, what a remarkable job Steve Cooper’s done there.  Rock bottom of the league when he took over, now one game away from promotion.  He’s a very good coach.

Yeah, touching a goalpost would be so much better than celebrating with Klopp and all the players.

Anyway, hopefully Billy Sharp is alright after what happened during that pitch invasion.

You’d think you’d just be happy your team had got through to the final rather than using it as an opportunity to launch yourself into a full-on running headbutt against an opposition player.

The only people who would prefer Huddersfield are surely Derby and Huddersfield fans. If you're in any way neutral you don't want a side that could challenge Derby's record.

Yep, like most things in life nowadays it's people more concerned about what they can put on their social media rather than enjoying the occasion. As an example, there were a few fans that ran up to Steve Cooper looking for a selfie, like that's what he would want to be doing at that moment. Just bellends.
