Jabba's Comments

Strong inside forward with a good goalscoring record, Forrest was a regular for Leeds in the mid-1950s who was signed from Retford Town. He returned to Nottinghamshire with County in 1957 where he ended up as captain as they fought their way out of Division 4.

Jemma Jo Topham says: Hi! Im actually his grandaughter Jemma! Im 20 years old and he and my grandma Madge live with us in Weymouth! Hes very well and coping with his immobile ankle. If you need to know anything else Im sure I can find out for you.
