I grew up a fan, as I suppose most football fans in the county were then. I well remember the Forest team of the late 60's, who went on to be runners up in the league, although later my allegiances were to change.
The club went on to be league champions in 1979 and went on to win the European Cup in 1979 and 1980 in the days when the competition was only open to true league champions.
The club has since fallen from grace and the Premier League, but they still battle hard I am told as they strive to emulate their former glory.
