Bristol City: Could Steve Cotterill be set for an incredible return to Nottingham Forest?

 

RUMOURS of Steve Cotterill taking over as manager of Nottingham Forest have emerged after the former Bristol City boss was spotted watching the side at Reading on Tuesday evening.

Whether it was just a chance meeting, that is up for discussion, but Cotterill was snapped talking to Forest owner Fawaz Al-Hasawi, the man that sacked him when he took over the club in 2011.

Forest, who are currently under the charge of interim boss Paul Williams, lost out 2-1 to the Royals which saw them plummet to 17th in the table.

Cotterill has been out of work since January after he was sacked as manager of Robins, despite leading them to the League One title and Johnstone's Paint Trophy the previous campaign.

The former Cheltenham boss has been linked with the likes of Wycombe Wanderers and Bolton, while he is now 8/1 with Sky Bet to take over at the City Ground.

BBC Nottingham Sport snapped Cotterill talking to Kuwaiti businessman Al-Hasawi at the Madjeski Stadium.

Linked to Wycombe Wanderers? I'm sure Ainsworth is still there, unless I've missed something.

I thought forrest fans didn't like him but then again nor did some city fans to begin with.

I reckon he will be at Sheffield utd come the start of next season.

Spotted him outside the South Stand before we went in.

The funniest thing about this particular story is, looking at the actions of Florest's owners in the past, I certainly wouldn't bet against it, it's the sort of thing that they would do just to piss the fans off even more.

Ah, Nottingham Forest , proof that being owned by rich Arabs is n't a guarantee of massive investment.
