The imposing central defender was without any doubt Forest's most consistent performer last season.

He missed just four Championship games - a remarkable achievement considering the fact he played for a large proportion of the campaign with a hernia problem - and finished second behind Chris Cohen in the 'Player of the Year poll.

'Big Wes' is Forest's longest serving player and has become something of a cult hero with the fans who delight in singing 'You'll never beat Wes Morgan'.

It's all a far cry from the days when he wondered whether he would ever get the chance to forge a career for himself in football.

He was on Notts County books as a schoolboy but when they failed to offer him an apprenticeship he went back to college and linked-up with Nottinghamshire non-league side Dunkirk.

He was spotted playing for them by a Forest scout and was eventually given the chance to make his mark on the big stage after a spell in the Club's Academy.

Forest debut: - August 12, 2003 v Port Vale (Carling Cup)
