WIN OR BUS FOR FOREST

MARK WARBURTON has warned his players they face a battle for a place on the coach to Hull.

Nottingham Forest returned to winning ways against Burton a week ago and boss Warburton is pleased with the growing strength in depth at his disposal.

The likes of Matty Cash and David Vaughan are returning to fitness and Forest go into the game 12th in the table, two points and two places above the Tigers.

Warburton said: “We’ve competition for places now. We have really talented players not in the squad.

“There will be good guys not on the coach when we travel this weekend.

“It tells you about the quality of the competition – and we have to have that at a club like Forest.”
