Forest Seal Earnshaw Capture :
Nottingham Forest have completed the signing of Robert Earnshaw from Derby County.
The Reds have paid £2.65million for the 27 year old striker, who has signed a three-year City Ground contract and is Colin Calderwood's first signing of the summer as he prepares his squad for a return to the Coca-Cola Championship.
The Welsh international completed the formalities of his move late yesterday after undergoing a medical.
He will face the media as a Forest player for the first time next Wednesday once Calderwood has returned from holiday.

Earnshaw : I'm Raring To Go :
Robert Earnshaw today admitted he cannot wait to launch his City Ground career after becoming a Nottingham Forest player.
After several weeks of speculation that he was top of Forest's 'wanted list' as they prepare for their return to the Coca-Cola Championship, Earnshaw has completed his cross-East Midlands switch.
He signed a three-year contract last night after The Reds paid Derby £2.65million for his services.
And the 27 year old Welsh international is raring to go after a frustrating one-season spell at Pride Park.
Speaking exclusively to nottinghamforest.co. uk, Earnshaw said: "It has taken a few weeks. I've had time to think about it and went away to assess everything after speaking to the manager but I'm happy it's all done now.
"Everyone knows all about the club and what it's about. Getting to know Colin Calderwood was important - I wanted to get to know what he was like and what he's looking for.
"We had a good, long chat and that was a big factor in my decision in the end. Now that everything is sorted I can't wait for the start of the season.
"I'm looking forward to getting to know the lads and getting to work.
"Promotion for Forest was huge and hopefully we can keep the exciting times going. Forest have got a young squad who want to do well and that goes a long way - there shouldn't be any surprises as to how good the team can be.
"On appearances and getting the chance to play, Derby was disappointing but that's how it goes. I'm just looking at it as a chapter closed, will learn from it and am looking forward to getting back to playing football."

Earnie has some goal record in the Championship.
See you soon, Liverpool. :cool:
