Five reasons why there is still hope for Nottingham Forest fans

1. #FawazOut

Let’s start with the big one. As mentioned earlier, fans are absolutely furious with Fawaz.

The numerous lies, greed fuelled actions, shambolic mismanagement of the club and ego power trips had nudged Forest fans to the proverbial edge, but pulling the plug on that deal sent them flying over it.

While many had protested with their feet to the point attendances are lower now than they were when the club was last in League One, barring a ‘Fawaz Out’ banner that had surfaced at away games at Reading and Birmingham City, no-one had properly protested.

Last Saturday changed that, as a red army 1,000-strong containing men and women of all ages – and a club legend in Stan Collymore to boot – gathered outside the Peter Taylor Stand to loudly make their feelings known.


This movement is absolutely vital, and having been at the protest myself (even making a TV appearance no less), I’ve no doubts it will only grow from strength to strength.

Frankly, it needs to, and there needs to be as much exposure as humanly possible to alert the rest of the footballing world, as well as governing bodies who’ve badly failed the club like the Football League and The FA, to our plight.

One way or another, he will go – what was once a vocal minority is now an overwhelming majority loud enough to be heard nationwide, but we as fans have to keep doing all we can to force this man out.

We may not be united in team selection, managers, players, transfer targets or anything else on the pitch, but ultimately those who support the club are Forest, make Forest, and will always be Forest.

Mark my words – stay united and stand together and we will get our club back.
