REALLY? Nottingham Forest to play at the 'Kuwait City Ground'

Nottingham Forest's famous City Ground is set to be renamed the Kuwait City Ground stadium.

The Daily Mail says Forest owner and chairman Fawaz Al Hasawi has agreed the deal to rename to stadium the KCG Stadium.

And Stuart Pearce's players will also sport a Kuwait logo on their shirts this season as part of the agreement.

The 30,576 capacity ground, which has played host to Forest for 116 years, will be rebranded to fit its new name, as the Championship club's owners target promotion to the Premier League.
