Sabri Lamouchi is in the running for September's manager of the month award in the Championship.
Lamouchi oversaw a perfect run of League results last month, as Forest recorded 1-0 wins over Swansea City and Barnsley, before edging a five-goal thriller away to Stoke City.
That record of nine points from nine has boosted the Reds' early-season promotion hopes, and has played its part in them sitting second in the table during the current international break.
West Bromwich Albion's Slaven Bilic, Sheffield Wednesday boss Garry Monk and Alex Neil of Preston North End are also up for the award.
Plenty of Forest fans took to social media to congratulate Lamouchi on his nomination - and show how they believe he should be the first man since Billy Davies in March 2013 to win the gong while at the City Ground.
But given the so-called 'manager of the month curse', which supposedly sees a team struggle for form in the weeks after their manager is named the winner, there are others who hope the Frenchman will miss out when the prizes are awarded.
