2005–06 Nottingham Forest F.C. season

Nottingham Forest
2005–06 season
Manager	Gary Megson (until 16 February); Ian McParland (caretaker manager)
Football League One	7th
FA Cup	Second round
League Cup	First round
Football League Trophy	First Round

During the 2005–06 English football season, Nottingham Forest F.C. competed in the Football League One where they finished in 7th position on 69 points. It was a disappointing season for Forest who failed to make the play-offs by two points, with a failure to win any of their last three games costing them a play-off spot, though even 7th was something of an achievement considering they had been in the bottom half of the table when manager Gary Megson was dismissed on February after a bad run of form. In the three cup competitions they went in early rounds to Macclesfield, Chester and Woking .
