Breaking: Late decision made on Nottingham Forest's clash with Bournemouth

Nottingham Forest's Championship clash against AFC Bournemouth is understood to have been postponed little more than four hours before kick-off.

The Reds were due to take on their fellow promotion-hopefuls on the south coast tonight at 7.45pm. However, the game is understood to have been called off in the wake of Storm Eunice.

Bournemouth had provided an update on Thursday night which said: “The club is working alongside its Safety Advisory Group, the EFL and Nottingham Forest, and will provide relevant information to all those planning to travel as soon as possible on Friday."

One of the options available was understood to have been playing the game on Saturday, February 19, which was the date originally set for the clash before it was moved to be shown live on Sky TV.

However, it is understood a new date for the fixture will be arranged instead.
