Stan Collymore has taken to social networking site Twitter to give his reaction to Nottingham Forest’s survival in the Championship.

Forest have finished the season 21st in the league table with 51 points from 46 points and have escaped the drop to League One on goal difference.

The Reds secured their survival in the second tier of English football with a 3-0 victory over Ipswich Town at the City Ground on Sunday afternoon.

Former Forest striker Collymore is pleased to see the Reds maintain their Championship status, but he has warned the club not to go into another season unprepared.

City are one of the biggest clubs in England, and the City Ground faithful must be relieved that the team are still in the Championship.

What the Reds need to do is build a strong team and then push for promotion. There must be a long-term strategy in place, and everyone has to be patient.

Mark Warburton has done a decent job at Forest so far, and the former Rangers manager should be kept in charge of the first team next season.
