Plenty of former players would say they feel more nervous watching big games rather than playing in them, but that is not the case for Marlon Harewood - not that he remembers the biggest game of his Nottingham Forest career.
Harewood celebrated wildly at home when Brennan Johnson scored the second goal at Sheffield United on Saturday before seeing footage of his former strike partner David Johnson going even crazier in the stand behind the goal with 3,000 Forest fans. It was a wonderful moment for the Johnson family, 19 years on from when David and Marlon led the line for Forest in their heart-breaking play-off semi-final defeat at Bramall Lane.
Forest lost that game 4-3 in extra-time after Des Walker's own goal, but Harewood had been replaced after an hour following a blow to the head with the visitors well on track. He woke up believing Forest had gone through and even now he feels that team should have gone up. In fact, he feels Paul Hart's team was better than Steve Cooper's current crop, but he is backing Cooper's team to go all the way to the Premier League.
