It will seemingly be up to Nils Koppen to decide on prospective replacements for Dessers, with the 29-year-old Hearts striker mooted as a possible budget alternative.

Nottingham Forest have a love-hate relationship with VAR and match officials in the sense that at times it’s felt like the club simply loves to loathe them!

Things should have gone much more smoothly, though. There is some footage…
