Former Nottingham Forest midfielder David Prutton has lifted the lid on a text message exchange with Steve Cooper about the pressure he is under as Reds manager.
Cooper has twice reportedly been close to the sack this season before being publicly backed by owner Evangelos Marinakis. That scrutiny very much remains with Forest having six games to preserve their Premier League status.
Speaking on the Garibaldi Red podcast, Prutton detailed a text exchange with Cooper which revealed his attitude to the pressure on his job.
