Got That Lovin' Feelin' is the enthralling story of Nottingham Forest's emotional return to the Premier League under Steve Cooper in 2022. It charts the promotions, relegations, financial problems and missed opportunities that made Forest's journey back to the big time such a compelling one. Cooper's side's thrilling and unexpected promotion campaign put an end to 23 years outside the top flight. In those lean times, Forest frequently became a byword for decline on the pitch and madness in the boardroom. The book features opinions and insights from those who worked on the pitch, in the dugout and in the corridors of power. It also tells the story of Forest's first season back in the big time, through the eyes of fans, players and pundits - all the while exploring what it means to be connected to this grand, historic and pioneering club. From Frank Clark's European dreamers to Cooper's play-off winners, this is Forest's roller-coaster ride of a story.
Rezensionen / Stimmen
"Warren Turner's bright red book tells of the Forest journey from Frank Clark to Steve Cooper in order to secure top-flight football again after an absence of 23 years. There's background, backstories and key match reports as viewed 'through the eyes of fans, players and pundits'. In fact, there's a great picture of No.9 Taiwo Awoniyi scoring 'the winner against Arsenal to ensure another Premier League season for Nottingham Forest'. Pictures can speak volumes as do the words - a great, informative book!" -- Mark Watkins * Dare Radio *
