SQUAD NUMBER - 8

Squad numbers were introduced in 1994 and each Forest player was allocated their number for the 1994-95 season. The 1997-98 season saw us revert (for one year) back to standard 1-11 numbering, but since then the Squad Number (along with a name on the back of the shirt) has been the rule.

Here's the list of the 14 players who have worn squad number 8 for us
