Forest man facing four-month injury heartache

Nottingham Forest right-back Fin Back is facing up to four months on the sidelines through injury.

The 20-year-old is currently on loan at League Two side Carlisle United, where he has played in 17 of 19 league games so far this season. After an impressive start to the season, the Forest youngster has received an unfortunate setback.

It is difficult not to see a connection between the two, however. Since the certainty and stability which came with Cooper putting pen to paper, the Reds have lost just twice - one defeat coming against league leaders Arsenal and the other away to Wolverhampton Wanderers, which could easily have ended as a draw.
