The 2011–12 season will be Nottingham Forest Football Club's 4th consecutive season in the Championship. Nottingham Forest's expectations were to once again seek promotion from the Championship. However, the season was spent in a relegation battle which they survived meaning they will once again compete in the Championship. Forest also competed in the FA Cup and the League Cup, being knocked out in the third round of both.

The Away kit was debuted at Southampton away and the Goalkeeper away at Wycombe Wanderers away in the League Cup. All the kits had the same Umbro and Victor Chandler logos across the front of them.
