Nottingham Forest boss Steve Cooper knows the memory of Brian Clough will be on the minds of fans ahead of today's promotion playoff final against Huddersfield.

Forest have not played at Wembley since Clough led them to four successive domestic cup finals between 1989 and 1992 — and have not played in the top flight in 23 years.

"His legacy and memory and history won't just be with us on Sunday — it's here every day,"said Cooper on the eve of the biggest day in the club's recent history.

"When you come to the training ground, the first person you see is Brian Clough. And rightly so. It always should be.

"We will take all of that with us down to Wembley and be as united and unified as possible, together with our history, to give us the best chance to win a really important football game."
