STUART PEARCE reckons Nottingham Forest are safe from relegation this season and says the atmosphere at the City Ground is reminiscent of his glory days.
Nuno Espirito Santo's side host winless Crystal Palace tonight seeking a first home victory of the season.
Forest have suffered a turbulent off-field build-up, with a £750,000 fine for a stupid social-media post last season being followed by owner Evangelos Marinakis getting hit with a stadium ban.
In addition, Morgan GibbsWhite will be banned tonight while Nuno starts a threematch touchline suspension.
But on the pitch, only Liverpool have conceded fewer Premier League goals and Chris Wood has netted four to help win 10 points in the first seven games.
