History
Nottingham Forest Football Club, founded in 1865, is one of England's historic clubs and back-to-back European Cup winners in 1979 and 1980 under Brian Clough. Known as The Reds, it represents Nottingham and plays at the City Ground by the River Trent. English titles, cups and a Premier League return mark modern cycles; the East Midlands rivalry with Derby County remains central. Red colours, Sherwood tree imagery and Clough-era idols define the identity. Forest consolidates continental and century-plus tradition in English football.
