Steve Cooper makes pledge to Nottingham Forest fans after Chelsea draw

Head coach Steve Cooper is determined to keep giving Nottingham Forest fans a team to be proud of as the Reds fight to retain their Premier League status.

Serge Aurier’s goal clinched a point for the hosts as they came from behind to draw 1-1 with Chelsea at the City Ground on New Year’s Day. They are now level on points with 17th-placed West Ham United, but Cooper’s side could easily have claimed victory over the Blues.

Roared on by a sold-out crowd, a positive second half saw Forest well on top. Taiwo Awoniyi and Brennan Johnson both forced saves while Morgan Gibbs-White hit the bar before the equaliser came just past the hour.
