The Legacy
Nottingham Forest finished bottom of the Premier League in 1996-1997, resulting in relegation to the First Division. Stuart Pearce captained the side, featuring prominently alongside Kevin Campbell, Colin Cooper, and Steve Chettle throughout the campaign. Labatt's appeared as the front sponsor on this Umbro home shirt, which saw the club struggle for results under both Frank Clark and later Stuart Pearce as caretaker manager. Despite the presence of experienced defenders like Chettle and Cooper, the team failed to avoid the drop, ending a difficult year for the City Ground faithful.
Key Moment
