Financial head-to-head Nottingham Forest v West Brom

  • West Brom are hoping to secure promotion back to the Premier League this season after narrowly missing out on the play-off finals following an aggregated 6-5 loss to rivals Aston Villa in the play-off semi-finals last season. 
  • Both clubs have signed deals with new managers ahead of the new season. Forest have made an unorthodox choice in Sabri Lamouchi, while West Brom have signed the former West Ham manager, Slaven Bilic.
  • According to their latest accounts, Forest's wage bill ranks them 15th in the league, but owner Evangelos Marinakis believes promotion should be the club's target: "I don't want to promise things, I want to deliver things."
