May 24th, 2009 was a special day forthe Nottingham Forest fans. They started getting excited in the days leading up to it, and the tickets to watch the final home game of the season were completely sold out. There were countless fans who were waiting for others to sell their extra tickets, despite the fact that the team was destined to finish the season empty-handed.
The reason for this overwhelming response was not because the team was going to go to the top of the table after the match, and neither was it because they were going to get relegated.
The reason behind their excitement was simple: Twain was coming back.
Even though it had been three weeks since Tony Twain returned to his managerial position at the team, this would be his first time directing a home game after his comeback.
Additionally, there was also someone who was going to bid farewell to Nottingham and Nottingham Forest.
