Some 27,812 supporters packed into The City Ground that night as the BBC cameras caught a cup classic, with the holders, then managed by Arsene Wenger, dumped out of the FA Cup by Forest, a then Championship side.

But can you remember who started the game for the Tricky Trees in Nottinghamshire that night? We're about to find out - in our latest line-up quiz!
