We'll have no idea if Nigel had any input on the result, but we were showing some good signs before he came in so let's give this one to Coops.
I love Cloughy before anyone starts, and he will get lots of credit in the future, so let's put this result down to Coops and his team as a thank you for putting some pride back into our club.

I used to watch Forest quite often as a teenager in the mid to late eighties when the Stags were away as I had mates who were big Forest fans, that team was indeed very good but I don't remember Steve Foster (ex Brighton and Luton) playing for Forest although Steve Foster is a popular name for a footballer so it could have been another one, they had a big centre half called Colin Foster who was about 6 foot 5 if I remember and won almost everything in the air.Tippy Tappy Football wrote:Richard Cooper (41) was at Forest as a kid until he was 21/22 in 2001.

I assume Coops is a Forest fan although I've never asked him. I wonder if the likes of Young Nigel, Psycho, Des Walker, Stevie Hodge, Neil Webb, Roy Keane, Gary Parker, Brian Laws, Gary Crosby, Franz Carr, Steve Sutton, Steve Chettle, Terry Wilson, Steve Foster, Lee Chapman, Nigel Jemson etc were his heroes growing up. Lee Glover was also member of that team. Forest had a very good team from 1987-1992 that won two League Cups, two Full Members Cups, FA Cup finalists and semi-finalists; and finished 3rd twice in the First Division from 1987-1989.
He could turn out to be a County fan

He was the bond haired lad? They had a player called Brian Rice too who was good and Tommy Gaynor who showed promise but never seemed to get a run in the team.Tippy Tappy Football wrote:That's the one. I think Forest signed him from Orient. He used to play at centre half with "YNB" Des Walker. He lost his place at centre half to Terry Wilson and Steve Chettle.
Terry Wilson was a really good young player who started off as a midfield player and then Brian Clough moved him back to centre half. He suffered bad knee injuries and had to retire early.
