'Woohoo!' - Nottingham Forest fans loving this major promotion update

Nottingham Forest fans are loving the latest update from the Premier League.

The top flight has given the green light for the return of top flight football after a near three-month suspension because of the coronavirus pandemic.

Sabri Lamouchi 's side were well on the way to securing a play-off place until the season was stopped in the middle of March.

The Reds are in fifth place, five points clear of Bristol City in seventh and they will almost certainly get the chance to play out the 2019-20 campaign after the Premier League's decision today.

Premier League football returns on June 17, with Aston Villa vs Sheffield United and Manchester City vs Arsenal the two games kicking off the restart.

The Championship will likely restart on the same day or, if not, a few days later.

And that's got Reds fans excited about the prospect of the second tier season finally coming back.

"With the Prem back, I can’t see it being long for the Championship to follow suit!" said one.

"Let's get the championship back up and running," another said.

"Woohoo," said a third.

"I just want the Championship back so Forest can win the title and go back up to where they belong!" added another."
