David Prutton has been suspended for 3 games and they are all crucial fixtures before Christmas. Nottingham Forest will be without England Under 21 international David Prutton for three crucial games before Christmas after the young star was banned for 3 games.

He was originally due to miss Saturdays game at Burnley after picking up his 5th yellow card of the season in the 2-1 defeat at Wolves but, his sending off in last Saturdays win over Ipswich means he will also be forced to sit out the trip to Bradford and the home game against Reading.
