Former Nottingham Forest striker Robert Earnshaw says the Reds are enjoying an "unbelievable" period having been awoken from their "sleeping giant" status.
The Reds take on Huddersfield Town on Sunday (May 29) at Wembley Stadium with a prized place in the Premier League for the victors. Earnshaw, who was part of the Forest side which reached the play-offs in 2009/10 and 2010/11, told Sky Sports that the Reds fans deserve the opportunity to reach the Premier League after a 23-year absence from the top-flight.
Should Forest win promotion at Wembley, the Reds would reap financial rewards of at least £170 million and boss Steve Cooper would make himself a club legend having taken the club from bottom of the Championship to the play-offs.
