Sad happening as Nottingham forest lost of its oldest fan in a tragic accident
Nottingham Forest are ready to lose one of their key men should an offer come in, as they look to continue their upward trajectory under Nuno EspÃrito Santo.
Nottingham Forest taste Premier League defeat
If you had told any Forest fan that their first taste of Premier League defeat would come as late as their sixth game this season, they would probably have bitten your arm off.
The Garibaldi only just avoided relegation last season, but have made a strong start to the campaign this time around, aided by summer signings Ramon Sosa and Jota Silva, as well as the imposing figure of Nikola Milenkovic in the heart of defence.
Though out of the Carabao Cup, they sit ninth in the Premier League in an early season highlighted by a shock win over Liverpool at Anfield, with nine points from six games leaving them on course for 57 points across the season and a comfortable mid-table finish.
But a 1-0 home defeat to Fulham brought the club a little way back down to earth, with Nuno’s side managing just one shot on target as a Raul Jimenez penalty proved the difference between the two sides.
With a favourable run of fixtures ahead, they will be hoping that the loss is just a blip rather than a sign of a downturn in form at The City Ground. But now, a potentially unpopular sale has been mooted.
