Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  E tata ana a Dougie Freedman ki te whakaae ki tētahi kirimana hou e rua tau hei noho ki Nottingham Forest. Kua whakapūmau a Freedman i a Forest mai i tana whakakapi i te toa karakia a Stuart Pearce, ā, e harikoa ana ngā rangatira o te karapu ki te mahi i mahia e ia ki te City Ground. Kua whakaritea a Dougie Freedman ki te haina i tētahi kirimana hou ki Nottingham Forest. Kua whakamiharo a Freedman i te City Ground mai i tana whakakapi i a Stuart Pearce i te marama o Hui-tanguru. I whakamātau kaha rātau ki ngā tūranga tākaro, i te wā i whakakapi a Freedman i a Pearce, engari kua heke iho rātau i ngā wiki tata nei. Kāore i ārai i te rangatira o Forest ki te neke ki te whakarite kirimana mō Freedman mō ngā tau e rua e whai ake nei.
Kei te tata a Nottingham Forest ki te whakawhānui i te kirimana a Dougie Freedman. Ko te rangatira o te Ngahere i riro mai i te kaiwhakahaere o mua a Stuart Pearce i te Hui-tanguru. Mai i taua wā kua ārahi a Freedman i te karapu ki te tuaiwa o te whakataetae.
