Nottingham Forest news: European hopes ‘in their own hands’

BBC Radio Nottingham’s Colin Fray talked about Forest’s European dreams on the latest Shut Up And Show More Football podcast: “It could feel different if Forest beat Leicester on Sunday, especially with West Ham away to follow, who are hardly firing on all cylinders at the moment.

“There are a number of fans who are, quite rightly, looking up and others who are looking below them to make sure Forest are getting some European football.

“If they can keep Chelsea at arm’s length then the last day could be a shoot-out. Chelsea have Newcastle and Manchester United to face compared with Forest who have Leicester and West Ham. You would think that it is in Forest’s grasp to keep Chelsea within a couple of points, if not go past them.

“From Forest’s perspective, they have 19th and 17th-placed teams left to play so it is very much in their hands to keep things alive until the final day.”
