    The Forest derby...reasons to be cheerful?

    I know we’ve touched on this on the ‘prediction’ thread but a reaction thread seems called for.
    Have to admit I was pleasantly surprised. Expected the worst, especially given the injuries, lack of confidence on our part and relaxed, nothing to play for attitude of the Trent side mercenaries.
    Thought the back four put in their best performance for months, both collectively and individually with Forsyth back to something like his best and seemingly helped by putting in a beautifully timed old fashioned tackle in the opening moments.
    Every player seemed to show the determination which has been missing for weeks, no one looked willing to be pushed around and the players, again for the first time in a while looked proud to wear the shirt.
    Of course it wasn’t perfect but only one team looked like scoring, the comments about Tomblin proved pure hype - overweight lad with a decent touch who deserves an Oscar...nothing more - the sending off was ludicrous - just a tangle of legs and a dive - although Huddlestone could have gone for two yellows earlier and for me Davies was the motm by a mile.
    Also good to see that, at long last, we’ve actually signed someone - Palmer - who gives us something different and makes a difference.
