The Met Office forecast for Nottingham Forest's celebrations in Old Market Square on Monday (May 30) afternoon is cloudy. Reds players and club staff will celebrate with fans in the city centre at a special event from 1pm, with roads closed and tram and bus services affected.

That's after Nottingham Forest secured promotion to the Premier League on Sunday (May 29), after beating Huddersfield Town 1-0 at Wembley in the Championship play-off final. The celebration event will be hosted by comedian and Forest fan Matt Forde, alongside BBC Radio Nottingham's Colin Fray.
