Nottingham Forest boss Steve Cooper has been the "magician" in the Reds' incredible rise up the Championship and into the play-off final, according to former striker David Johnson.
The Reds endured an awful start to the season, their worst in more than 100 years, but have enjoyed a miraculous turnaround under Steve Cooper to go from bottom of the Championship to being 90 minutes away from the Premier League when they take on Huddersfield Town at Wembley on Sunday (May 29).
Since Cooper arrived at the City Ground in September 2021, the Reds have flown up the league standings and are now the closest they have ever been to ending their 23-year exile from England's top-flight.
