Nottingham Forest decision on showing Championship play-off final at City Ground

Nottingham Forest has said whether or not The City Ground will screen the Championship play-off final against Huddersfield Town at Wembley. The Reds travel to the capital on Sunday (May 29, kick-off 4.30pm), where the winners of the clash will be promoted to the Premier League.

Nottingham Forest confirmed it investigated the feasibility of showing the match on a big screen at The City Ground, but this has not been possible due to logistical issues outside of the club's control. Nottingham City Council also confirmed the game will not be shown on a big screen in Old Market Square either, encouraging punters to watch the game in a pub or a bar if they cannot get a ticket.

And there are a number of pubs and bars across Nottinghamshire showing the game, which will be broadcast live on Sky TV. One of those is The Boot Room, which is right next to The City Ground in Pavilion Road.
