===Frank Clark (1993β1996)=== Frank Clark from Forest's 1979 European Cup winning team returned to the club in May 1993, succeeding Brian Clough as manager. Clark's previous greatest management success was promotion from the [[Football League Fourth Division|Fourth Division]] with [[Leyton Orient F.C.|Leyton Orient]] in 1989. Clark convinced Stuart Pearce to remain at the club and also signed [[Stan Collymore]], [[Lars Bohinen]] and [[Colin Cooper]]. Clark brought an immediate return to the Premier League when the club finished [[Football League First Division|Division One]] runners-up at the end of the 1993β94 season.<ref>{{cite web|title=Football League First Division 1993/94|access-date=1 August 2012|work=Soccerbase|url=http://www.soccerbase.com/tournaments/tournament.sd?tourn_id=213|archive-date=25 September 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180925183615/http://www.soccerbase.com/tournaments/tournament.sd?tourn_id=213|url-status=live}}</ref> Forest finished third in [[FA Premier League 1994β95|1994β95]]<ref>{{cite web|title=Premiership 1994/95|url=http://www.soccerbase.com/tournaments/tournament.sd?tourn_id=119|work=Soccerbase|access-date=1 August 2012|archive-date=3 November 2012|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121103125752/http://www.soccerbase.com/tournaments/tournament.sd?tourn_id=119|url-status=live}}</ref> and qualified for the [[UEFA Europa League|UEFA Cup]] β their first entry to European competition in the post-[[Heysel Stadium disaster|Heysel]] era. Collymore then transferred in the 1995β96 close season to [[Liverpool F.C.|Liverpool]] for a national record fee of Β£8.5million. Forest reached the [[1995β96 UEFA Cup]] quarter-finals, the furthest an English team reached in UEFA competition that season. They finished ninth in the league. The [[FA Premier League 1996β97|1996β97]] season quickly became a relegation battle. Clark left the club in December.<ref>{{cite news|title=Winless Forest lose manager Clark|agency=Agence France-Presse|work=The Nation|location=Bangkok|publisher=Nation Multimedia Group|date=20 December 1996|access-date=11 June 2012|url=https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=g8QpAAAAIBAJ&dq=stan%20collymore%20manchester%20united&pg=6625%2C1867265|archive-date=27 February 2022|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220227100218/https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=g8QpAAAAIBAJ&dq=stan%20collymore%20manchester%20united&pg=6625%2C1867265|url-status=live}}</ref>
