VOTE: Who is Nottingham Forest's greatest ever central midfielder?

Last month, NottinghamshireLive readers voted John Robertson as Nottingham Forest greatest ever player.

The Scottish midfielder, who was once described as "a little fat guy" by Brian Clough , topped the poll with a staggering 42% of the votes.

Stuart Pearce was a close second on last month's poll, picking up 26% of the votes.

Third went to Stan Collymore (9%), closely followed by Peter Shilton (8%) and Des Walker (3%).

Martin O'Neill and Roy Keane both made the list with a slim 1% of the vote each.

In total there were 13 other Garibaldi legends who received votes from supporters, leading us to ask the question: Who would make the club's greatest ever XI?

So far it has been pretty straight forward, with Peter Shilton, Viv Anderson, Des Walker and Stuart Pearce all dominating the polls for their positions.

But the midfield has proved tougher, with Steve Stone, Bryan Roy and O'Neill all running close for a sport at right midfield, with Stone coming out on top.

And this poll promises to be just as tight with 11 names in the race to be named as the club's best ever central midfielder - with the list chosen by you on our  Forest Facebook page .

So get voting!
