    Didn't expect that

    Great to be able to watch the game. Happy day.

    So much for Kiwi's downer about Forrest.

    Dont think many pundits did either.
    Just a pity it wasn't a clean sheet, but who wouldn't settle for closing the game down once you are three up sea from home at half time. KRO

    Just shows what happens when you don't score when on top, Reading did the same , pushed us well back early on didn't score and paid the price.
    Notts did almost the same our clinical finishing did them in
    Derby didn't miss hence a totally different
    match

    Just got back from the game and well pleased about it. A win at Forest comes in a blue moon for us but that is very welcome after the previous result. Some great performances from the Blues and the fans gave Forest some great sarcastic chants that seemed to aggravate them a tad. KRO

    I think most of us would have settled in advance for 3 points from the Derby/Forest games. Mind you, if someone had told you at the time LC was sacked that we'd be closer to the playoff places than the relegation zone by the end of 2014, you'd have asked them what they were smoking . . .

    Seems strange to say we defended well when Forest had so many shots/chances, and some bad luck, but I think teams will have plenty of possession against us. GR understands we are probably not good enough to go toe to toe with some in this league, but today was a superb team performance and result. Plenty of shots of our own, especially for an away game, and ours were on target!
    Superb defensively - Caddis excellent, as were the other 3, including 2 who I am not the greatest fan of in Robinson and Grounds. Great to go to a proper bogey ground and not only win but put in such an excellent all round performance.

    Exactly right Viper lad,we all know games at times to seem to be all against the run of play as they say,but we forget too that the of the game is to score goals and more than the opposition and the games with Reading and Forest and the defeat against Derby really show the situation without any fluffy bits.
