  • Former Forest players Ian Woan and Steve Stone join Dyche’s staff as assistants.
  • Forest confirmed Dyche will lead the team against Porto at the City Ground on Thursday in the Europa League.
  • The club explored Roberto Mancini and Marco Silva as options, but availability and compensation tied to PSR considerations steered the choice toward Dyche.
