Patrick Bamford pays 'most thoughtful' tribute to Nigel Doughty as Nottingham Forest host Leeds

Former Nottingham Forest striker Patrick Bamford paid tribute to the late, great Nigel Doughty after Sunday's game against Leeds.

Bamford, who now plays for Leeds, came through the academy ranks at Nottingham Forest before leaving for Chelsea in January 2012. Nigel Doughty, his godfather, rescued the Reds from administration in 1999 and stepped down as chairman in 2011.
