Why Nottingham Forest boss Steve Cooper welcomes promotion 'pressure' in crunch period

Boss Steve Cooper says he will welcome any pressure which comes Nottingham Forest’s way in the next few weeks - because it means they are in with a chance of promotion.

The Reds are three points below the play-off spots ahead of their return to action from the international break. Saturday’s trip to Blackpool marks the start of a 10-game sprint to the finish line, with the aim to clinch a top-six place.

Cooper has experience of what it takes to get there, having twice been in that position with Swansea City. And he is determined to stick to the style of play he has been working to instil at the City Ground, as well as thrive when the spotlight shines Forest’s way.
