Is Nottingham Forest on TV tonight?
Yes — Nottingham Forest v Coventry City, kick-off 5.30pm. On Sky Sports Main Event, Sky Sports Premier League — subscription needed.
Can I watch Nottingham Forest for free?
Not in the current schedule. Every upcoming Nottingham Forest fixture with a confirmed broadcaster is on a subscription channel. Free-to-air coverage is mostly limited to cup ties on BBC or ITV and the FA Cup final, which is protected by law.
Why is the Nottingham Forest match not on TV?
If it kicks off at 3pm on a Saturday, UK rules bar any live broadcast between 2.45 and 5.15 to protect attendances at lower-league grounds. That blackout is why a fixture can be sold out on TV everywhere else in the world and shown nowhere here. Otherwise the match may simply not have been selected, or the broadcaster may not have announced it yet — TV picks are usually confirmed one to two weeks ahead.
