Steve Cooper has been backed to deliver promotion to Nottingham Forest after the Reds’ valiant performance against Liverpool in the FA Cup.
Forest pushed Jurgen Klopp’s side all way in a pulsating clash at the City Ground on Sunday, with Diogo Jota’s late goal eventually sending the Anfield club through to the semi-finals, where they will meet Manchester City. It’s now back to the Championship which resumes in early April following the international break.
Forest are three points outside the play-offs and have games in hand over their immediate rivals. Former Chelsea and Aston Villa striker Tony Cascarino has seen enough to feel confident the Reds will be playing top-flight football next season for the first time this century.
