SUPPORT CENTRE BOOST
EARLY RETURN FOR JIM
Supporters are reminded that we have been
chosen to take centre stage on Sky TV twice
next month.
Our opening day clash with Sunderland at
The City Ground has been chosen for live
coverage and will now kick-off at 5.35pm.
And the visit of Jim Brennan's new club
Norwich City will also be shown live on
Saturday, August 30 with a 5.35pm kick-off.
Meanwhile, our trip to Coventry City has been
put back 48 hours to Wednesday, August 27
(kick-off 7.45pm).
Michael Dawson and Gareth Williams were
surrounding themselves with winners on the
eve of the new season (3).
They went along to The Council House in
Nottingham to present certificates and
trophies to 50 children, who had taken part
in a newly-launched Mentor Achievement
Awards programme.
For the past year schools within the Elliott
Durham Education Action Zone have been
piloting a Learning Mentor project, which
helps children develop their education.
The highly-successful Nottingham Forest
Study Support Centre was given a tremendous
boost by a donation from Experian, the global
business information solutions company.
They handed over a cheque for £75,000,
which will enable staff to re-equip the IT
suite at the Centre.

from John Saunders, Chief Executive of
Experian (4).

Jim Brennan is eagerly looking forward to locking horns
with his former City Ground colleagues next month.
Brennan completed a free transfer switch to Norwich
earlier this month after turning down our offer of a
new contract.
The Canadian international will find himself back on
familiar territory on Saturday, August 30 when we
face his new employers in our second Sky televised
game of the campaign.
And the Norwich new boy told us: "I'm really
looking forward to coming back to The City Ground
and seeing all the lads again.
"It was a wrench to leave because I had four great
years with Forest.
"I'm a Norwich player now but I sincerely hope that
Forest have a great season. I'll be closely following
their progress and results."
