Preston North End 1 Stockley Nottingham Forest 1 Grabban pen
A points a point although would have been nice to get three against a well organised Forest side, could have done without the early penalty which looked a little soft but understandable as Da Costa spent most of the afternoon falling over and yelping in pain at the slightest touch.
Grabban did the rest from the spot but not for long Potts sexy ball across the box found Stockley level.
The aforementioned Stockley led the Forest defence winning virtually everything in the air and getting penalised virtually every time by Mr Simpson.
Amoebi surely the best free transfer this season fired narrowly over the bar with his trusted left foot, however it was mainly North End a couple of goal mouth scrambles led to fouls against us as Forest got to half time however bad news for North End, Davies went off with a hamstring injury and Pearson collided withnhis own player and had to be substituted at half time.

Early Potts rocket over the bar, same player denied by a great block later on.
Forest more in this half as got defenders around Stockley to cut off the second ball, Ameobi again curled on narrowly wide. Watson cleared off the line from a Bauer header and a Barkhuizen effort late on was well blocked, fair result in the end still leaves us 2 points from Cardiff, still all to oplay for but an omninously tough trip to Griffin Park on Wednesday.
Storey, Ledson and Potts now starting to show some promise and Stockley also now begining to be an influence.

Why should a man go to work, if he has the health and strength to stay in bed?
