Watch the full interview below.

MEMORABLE MATCH

Here, we look back at a memorable match in 1989 as Forest won the League Cup at Wembley.

Mick Harford put Luton ahead at Wembley, but Nigel Clough's penalty and Neil Webb's strike turned the game around.

Clough added his second and Forest's third goal as he swept home Tommy Gaynor's cross from the right.

PLAYED FOR BOTH: HENRI LANSBURY

Lansbury joined Forest from Arsenal in 2012, spending five years at The City Ground, scoring 33 goals in 150 appearances.

After going on to have spells with Aston Villa and Bristol City, Lansbury joined Luton in May 2021 and spent two years at Kenilworth Road.

During his time with the Hatters, he made 48 appearances.
