Head coach Steve Cooper was left hurt by the thought he let Nottingham Forest fans down as his team suffered a damaging 2-1 defeat to Leeds United.
Orel Mangala’s opener was quickly cancelled out at Elland Road and the Reds lost their way as their winless streak stretched to eight games. The result leaves the club out of the bottom three on goal difference and the manager on thin ice.
Even in the difficult times Cooper has received tremendous backing from Forest supporters. His fate may not be in their hands, but he made clear he would love the chance to repay their faith.
