Coach Steven Reid announces Nottingham Forest departure with special message
Nottingham Forest have made a fine start to the Premier League season under head coach Nuno Espirito Santo
Nottingham Forest’s City Ground
Steven Reid has announced he has left his role as first-team coach at Nottingham Forest. The former Republic of Ireland international has announced his departure on social media.
His departure ends a lengthy association with the club which included securing promotion to the Premier League. Reid wrote on Instagram: “So my time at @officialnffc has come to an end. Would like to wish everybody at the club every success for the future. Some amazing memories shared over 3 seasons that will live with me forever.”
Reid returned to the City Ground ahead of the 2023/24 campaign after departing the previous summer following a two-year spell with the Reds. When he left in 2022, on the back of promotion being secured, he said he wanted to take up a new challenge and planned to offer his services as a specialist coach “helping people improve their mental well-being, confidence, and leadership”.
Reid first joined Forest as part of Chris Hughton’s coaching staff in October 2020. He remained at the City Ground when Hughton was axed in September 2021, taking caretaker charge for one game as the Reds beat Huddersfield Town 2-0.
