The Nottingham Forest fan who required medical attention during Wednesday night’s victory over Coventry City is making a good recovery.
In the very epitome of “limbs” in the stands, Reds supporter Mark Hefter says he was “knocked out cold” as he enthusiastically celebrated James Garner’s goal in the 2-0 triumph over the Sky Blues. But he is now very much on the mend.
The match was temporarily paused in the second half at the City Ground, a few minutes after Manchester United loanee Garner had doubled the hosts’ lead with a rifled left-footed shot. Forest goalkeeper Brice Samba helped alert officials to an incident in the crowd, and he asked for an update on the fan after the full-time whistle.
