When Nottingham Forest rescued Ross McCormack from his Aston Villa nightmare over the course of the January transfer window, it was supposed to spark a revival for both the Reds and the Scotsman.
However, following problems at Villa Park, the former Leeds United man seems to be undergoing similar issues on the banks of the River Trent, with the Telegraph reporting he hasn’t trained with Mark Warburton’s side in three weeks.
Undoubtedly one of the most prolific second tier strikers in recent years, the former Scotland international’s absence is understood to be down to personal and health-related issues.
While, of course, it may be a delicate situation keeping McCormack from reporting for duty, the report was always likely to spark reaction online. Indeed, much of the reaction from Villa and Leeds fans has been a positive one, with many showing support for their former striker.
Here’s a closer look at how Villa and Leeds fans reacted to these reports.
