These are the top 3 Nottingham Forest challenges on Football Manager 2017

Promotion in first season

Forest are one of about 17 teams who went into this season’s Championship with realistic ambitions of winning promotion.

Although in reality things haven’t quite gone according to plan, this is a realistic challenge for Forest fans on the game.

The Championship gets harder every year, as numerous relegated Premier League sides have found out in recent seasons, so the best time to get out of it is the next campaign.

So, you have to win promotion at the City Ground in your first season in charge.
