BRITT FAILS TO FIRE

You’Re never more desperate to score than when returning to your former club, particularly after a big- money move. Sadly for Britt Assombalonga, signed by Middlesbrough for £15m, his return to Forest didn’t go to plan. Subjected to chants such as ‘you used to play for a big club’ and ‘what a waste of money’, he failed to capitalise on a string of openings, was booked, and teed up Ashley Fletcher for what Boro thought was a late equaliser, only to see the offside flag raised.
