Nottingham Forest, founded in 1865, is one of the oldest football clubs in the world. Known for their historic European Cup wins in 1979 and 1980 under Brian Clough, Forest has a legacy that's deeply etched in football history. Their home ground, the City Ground, located by the banks of the River Trent, has been the backdrop to many of Forest's triumphs. The East Midlands derby against Derby County reflects the intense regional rivalry.
Ey up, let's have a yarn about Forest. We’re more than just a club in Nottingham; we’re a legend, aren’t we? City Ground's where we've seen it all. And when it comes to Derby, it’s not just a game, it’s our pride, our history clashing.
Did you know that some folks say the River Trent flows red whenever Forest beats Derby? They reckon it’s the river showing its true colors, celebrating with the Reds!
