The former Nottingham Forest player who has booked a City Ground cutout for Huddersfield Town clash

Nottingham Forest fans have been booking their cardboard cut-outs in their thousands ahead of the club's clash with Huddersfield Town at the City Ground on Sunday.

Sabri Lamouchi's side will take on the Terriers behind closed doors in Nottingham for the first time since football's return.

But one famous Reds face had made sure he is there to soak up the action - in cardboard form.

Former Forest left-back and Nottingham-born Reds fan Julian Bennett has confirmed that he has joined fans in booking his cardboard cut out.

He said on Twitter: "Who else is on their way to the City Ground?"

Bennet made 95 league appearances for Forest after being released as a youth player and returning ten years later.

He also counts Walsall, Crystal Palace and Sheffield Wednesday amongst his former clubs.

The City Ground will be packed with cardboard supporters and fan flags for the clash with Huddersfield to help the players feel at home.

Forza Garibaldi have also draped a flag across the Trent End that reads: "Every single one of us remains right behind every single one of you."
