#NFFC still have hurdles to overcome before they will get the green light to begin their ambitious redevelopment of the City Ground.
It remains a complex and many faceted project.
But the reality is that work won’t fully get underway until 2027.

Forest hope to get planning approval around September - which would allow them to begin some preparatory work immediately.
Rushcliffe Borough Council say they are working positively with the club to get their planning proposals heard.
Ultimate goal is a 52k capacity stadium.

🚨 Manchester City verbal proposal to Nottingham Forest for Elliot Anderson was worth £106m add-ons, taking it above £120m. #NFFC want British record fee guaranteed, not after bonuses. No fresh talks with #MCFC over 23yo England midfielder @TheAthleticFC nytimes.com/athletic/7335332…

Nottingham Forest retained list confirmed... no real surprises, although the departure of Stefan Ortega and Angus Gunn does leave them short of keeper options.
Matz Sels a proven, reliable number 1. But now only John Victor behind him as a senior option #NFFC

Willy Boly was a valuable signing early on, adding experience to the team and dressing room.
But he was hampered by injury last season (and not in the squad).
Lorenzo Lucca not being retained at end of his loan spell was entirely expected.

🚨 Manchester City see opening bid for Elliot Anderson rejected by Nottingham Forest. Pursuit ongoing. Forest expected to want more for Anderson than £105m Arsenal paid for Declan Rice.
Fees viewed as too high for #MUFC.

A remarkable, chaotic, dramatic and draining season.
But amid four different managers, it was also not without joy for #NFFC

That is that. The season ends with a 1-1 draw with Bournemouth #NFFC
Probably fair. Pereira's side did have spells where they played good stuff. Bournemouth got stronger in 2nd half.
Main thing is MGW - who underlined why he should be in the England squad with a great goal.

Now Hutchinson is replaced as McAtee gets a short cameo in which to show what he can do #NFFC

MGW is denied a second of the game by a great block from Smith.
Lovely ball from Hutchinson to set up the chance at the far post #NFFC

Awoniyi plants a header just wide and some #NFFC fans on the far side thought that was in.
Alas, no.

Now Dominguez and Yates come on...
Anderson is one of those replaced - will that be his CG goodbye?
He gets a fittingly warm reception from the #NFFC fans - and a big hug from Vitor Pereira.

GOOOOOOOOOOOAL a clever free kick routine sees Hutchinson roll the ball to MGW - who drives home a shot.
Might have been a deflection on the way, but he hit that crisply to put #NFFC in front.
That's why he should have been on the plane...

Chris Wood thumps a header against the post for #NFFC
Pereira's men have played some decent stuff in this first half.
Jesus battled well to create a good chance for himself a short while ago.
Now they have a dangerous FK on the edge of the box.

Great to see the rebranded John Robertson Stand for the first time at the CG.
The big shirt is a nice touch too, for a genuine #NFFC legend.
