Nottingham Forest F.C.

Nottingham Forest Football Club, often referred to as Forest for short, is a professional football club based in West Bridgford, Nottingham, England. It was founded in 1865; the team have played their home games at the City Ground, on the south bank of the River Trent in Nottingham, since 1898. Forest is one of six English clubs to have won the European Cup (an accolade it shares with Manchester United, Liverpool, Chelsea, Aston Villa and Manchester City), one of four English clubs to have won that trophy multiple times (along with Liverpool, Manchester United and Chelsea), as well as one of two English clubs (the other being Liverpool) to have won the competition back-to-back. Forest has two stars above its club crest to commemorate its two European Cup victories. It is considered to be the oldest club currently competing in the Premier League, the top division of the English football league system. Forest secured promotion from the EFL Championship during the 2021–22 season, and retained its Premier League status in 2022–23. Nottingham Forest has won two European Cups (now the UEFA Champions League), one UEFA Super Cup, one League title, two FA Cups, four League Cups, and one FA Charity Shield. The club has competed in the top two tiers of English football since its admission to the Football League, with the exception of five seasons in the third tier. Its most successful period was under the management of Brian Clough and Peter Taylor in the late 1970s and early 1980s, which included back-to-back wins in the then European Cup in 1979 and 1980. In Clough's last decade at the club, the Nottingham Forest team won the 1989 and 1990 League Cups and were losing finalists in the 1991 FA Cup Final and 1992 League Cup Final, before relegation from the Premier League in 1993. Upon an immediate return, Forest finished third in the Premier League in 1995 before again suffering relegation from the top flight in 1997 and 1999. The team returned to the Premier League by winning the 2022 Championship play-off final against Huddersfield Town.
