Nigel was a young striker with a lot of confidence who never really got on at Forest.

Jemson famously scored the single winning goal in the 1990 League Cup Final against Oldham.

He was a good outlet who held the ball up well and took pressures of the other players well, though he was a striker who if given more chances he might have become one of the best strikers Forest ever had.

After retiring from playing Nigel became manager of Ilkeston Town and then assistant manager at Halifax Town
