Nottingham Forest will head into the 2019/20 campaign looking to improve on the ninth-place finish achieved under Martin O’Neill last season.
The Reds finished with three wins on the spin but it’s fair to say the performances prior to those wins were simply not good enough.
A big challenge lies in store for O’Neill and he will have learned some big lessons from certain games last season.
The Championship is a tough league and the Reds boss has worked in football long enough to understand what the second tier of English football is all about.
Forest will head to Greece and Spain for pre-season training camps. Illustrious games with Olympiacos and Real Sociedad are on the agenda too.
The Reds kick off their pre-season campaign this Saturday with an away trip to Alfreton, who housed Forest’s Under-23s for some of last season.
