Robert Hughes elevated to first team squad

Youngster Robert Hughes has been handed a great chance to impress by being included in the squad for tonight’s game with Oldham Athletic at the City Ground.

The young midfielder has been putting in outstanding performances for the reserves this season, and has reportedly also impressed in training with the first team – he’ll most likely be on the bench with the squad number of 27.

Hughes is a product of the Forest Academy which has of course produced such well known players as Andy Reid, Michael Dawson, Jermaine Jenas as well as a number of our existing playing staff.

Midfield for me is somewhere we’ve been lacking recently, so it will be really interesting to see what contribution Hughes can make if he gets his chance on the field – well done Robert!
