🎥 Remembering Gibbs-White's first Forest strike ahead of the new season
As anticipation mounts ahead of the 2025/26 Premier League season in the wake of the official fixture release, Nottingham Forest has learned their opening day fate; a clash with Brentford.
Nuno Espiríto Santo's men will hope to kick-start the new campaign with all the points on offer in the wake of watching their push for Champions League football come up short across a fantastic 2024/25 campaign.

For key forward Morgan Gibbs-White, the 25-year-old may well relish the chance to stretch his legs against the capital side, especially in the wake of Thomas Frank departing for Tottenham.
It was three seasons ago when the former Wolves man bagged his first goal for the club against Brentford, kickstarting an influential presence at the City Ground that ultimately would see him break into the England setup as well as banking Player of the Season honours in 2022/23.
Now a star man at the club, Gibbs-White will look to strike at the heart of the Bees from the first moment of the new campaign.

Man continues 33-year Wimbledon queue streak
Harry Taylor says he has a group of friends from around the world who queue every year [Harry Taylor] A man who has camped out in a queue for Wimbledon tickets every year since 1992 has kept his streak going. Harry Taylor, who owns the Red Lion Inn in Bridge in Kent, arrived on Saturday morning and will camp overnight every day until the quarter finals on 9 July. Advertisement "It's hard to describe, if you've been to the French Open and the US Open it's not the same. There's no queue, you just arrive. It's impersonal," he explained. "This one, there's about 4,000 people in the queue, there's about 2,000 of us overnight. It's amazing, and the tickets you get are incredible." Mr Taylor says he has friends from across the world, including China and Australia, who join the queue alongside him every year. "We enjoy it, don't get me wrong. The whole camping [experience], the camaraderie, it is one of the greatest tournaments in the world," he added. Advertisement The pub owner says he will join the queue every year "unless I'm dead or I'm in hospital". Last year, Mr Taylor even did a postal vote in the General Election so he did not miss the action. Over the years Mr Taylor has improved his tent and even picked up tricks like getting a local gym membership in order to use their showers. He said: "My tent is like a five-star hotel. "I've got a blow-up bed, I've got lights, I've got everything. "We even have flowers and fragrances." Follow BBC Kent on Facebook, on X, and on Instagram.
