Al-Hasawi family to take over Nottingham Forest

Not sure how many foresters there are here, but another English club has been bought by a wealthy Arab family. Whether it means spending like City or operating more like Fulham, we might be seeing Forest in the EPL sometime soon. After arduous research (google/wikipedia), this family previously owned club in Kuwait (i know, i was shocked to learn that grass for a pitch can be grown in Kuwait) that was relatively successful, so maybe this will be big for Brian Clough's old stomping grounds.
But don't take my word for it, take ESPN's

Two-time European champion, they deserve to be in the EPL. Guess they'll be able to buy their way back now.

Come on the Foresters!
Solid club, solid past. Long ways to go to the EPL though. (Obviously only 1 league, but in terms of results/performance)

They weren't far off in 2010/11 but they took a GIANT step back last season, and just barely avoided relegation IIRC.

You do, in fact, recall correctly. Might have been a bit closer if not for Portsmouth going into administration. Forest only finished 2 points out of 4th to last, and Pompey were docked 10 points for that.
