On the 10th of January, 2006, Bennett made a signing with his hometown club of Nottingham Forest in a two-and-a-half-year agreement for an undisclosed amount. Bennett said “Lots of other teams, including ones in the Championship, were showing interest in me, but this is my home-town club and it’s a dream come true”.

Bennett became a free agent in July 2011. He made a total of over 100 appearances for Forest.

Then, soon after his return, in December 2008 he sustained a serious knee injury (cruciate and cartilage ligaments) in the Boxing Day 4–2 home defeat to Doncaster Rovers. This ruled him out for the rest of the season. While recovering from a major knee operation, Bennett was nominated for the PFA Player in the Community, but lost out to Graeme Murty.

A few days later, on the 14th of January, Bennett made his Nottingham Forest debut. He played for 90 minutes with a 3-0 win against Oldham Athletic. But, in the following game, on the 17th of January, Bennett received a red card following a incident that could be considered a bookable offence, in a 1-1 draw with Brentford. After serving a three-match suspension Bennett made his debut Nottingham Forest goal on his return, scoring in the final minutes of the 2-2 draw against Blackpool on the 4th of February and then scored a second goal in the final fixture of the campaign in the 1-1 draw with Bradford City.
