The majority of Nottingham Forest fans have reacted with surprise and sadness at reports over the departure of long-serving academy chief Gary Brazil.
The 60-year-old is said to be among three key departures at the City Ground as part of a backroom shake-up. The Athletic state that the Reds have "taken the unexpected step of not renewing Brazil’s contract".
It adds that Lee Charnley has been told his services "will no longer be required at boardroom level", having been brought in on a consultancy basis to provide extra experience as Forest prepared for life back in the Premier League, with under-21 boss Warren Joyce "also expected to leave".
