  History has a big influence at every football club. But at Nottingham Forest it holds more sway than at most. When it comes to the FA Cup, Dougie Freedman is acutely aware of importance the competition holds at the City Ground, given it was the one trophy Brian Clough was desperate to add to his collection, but always saw elude his grasp.
