Lynch would only play 15 times during the 2010–11 season making only 11 starts in all competitions and playing mostly at left back over his more natural centre back position.

During the 2011–12 season, he was given a chance to play in his preferred position in the centre of defence, alongside Wes Morgan, then Luke Chambers when Morgan joined Leicester City. He put in a series of very impressive displays and began to regularly hold down a starting place and showing signs of fulfilling his potential. On 19 November, Lynch scored his first goal for Nottingham Forest in the 3–2 win against Ipswich Town. His second came in a 2–1 loss to Middlesbrough, and his third was a header against former club Brighton.

Lynch came to Nottingham Forest on loan in September of 2008. After making five appearances in the following month, this loan period was extended to 28 December. After that, the loan agreement was prolonged to allow Lynch in the City Ground for the remainder of the season. Forest provided the players contract wages, and also paid Brighton the sum of PS25,000. Lynch played 23 times for Forest. He played at left full-back, assisting the long-term absence due to injuries to Julian Bennett.
