After months of build-up, Nottingham Forest will begin their 2025/26 Premier League season this Sunday (August 17) with a home fixture against Brentford.
Those lucky enough to be inside the sold-out City Ground on Sunday will be hoping that Forest can improve on last season’s 7th-place finish.
Nuno Espirito Santo’s men will also participate in the Europa League this season, with those fixtures yet to be confirmed.
Among those die-hard Forest fans looking forward to the new season are several famous faces.
Like all clubs, Forest has its fair share of celebrity fans who will be hoping for success during the campaign.

3. Matt Forde - $5m
The comedian, writer and political commentator is possibly one of the most passionate celebrity Forest fans out there. Forde takes every opportunity to fly the flag for Forest and hilariously recalls the moment he met Brian Clough as a mascot. The formidable Clough took one look at Forde, who suffered with eczema, and said ‘Bloody hell, you are an ugly bugger! What have you been doing all afternoon, headbutting pizzas?” Cloughie then marched him to the physio room and handed him some Betnavate, which sure enough cleared up the eczema in rapid time, much to the doctor’s shock! | Tim P.

4. James Dean Bradfield - $5m
The Manic Street Preachers frontman and Cooper’s Welsh compatriot started supporting Forest in the 70s and hasn’t looked back. If Paul McCartney isn’t available, perhaps James could give the City Ground a live rendition of ‘Mull of Kintyre’? | Tim P. Whitby/Getty Images
