Nottingham Forest fans’ continued belief in Steve Cooper and his team is what maintained a memorable atmosphere at the City Ground, it has been claimed, despite periods of struggle this season.
Forest were roared on to a 1-0 victory over Arsenal on Saturday - a result which saw the Reds avoid relegation with one game of the season remaining. And the noise and atmosphere at the City Ground is something that has been widely praised this campaign.
Speaking on the Guardian’s Football Weekly podcast , former Premier League centre-back Nedum Onuoha says it is something that could have easily turned during the season as Forest struggled. However, he hinted that the club sticking with head coach Cooper, even with the manager under pressure at times this season, is what maintained the positive atmosphere in the stands.
