Great entertaining match! Forest defended for their lives at times and we would have been proud of that had it been the other way round. A point was a fair result because we didn't really create enough chances to trouble their keeper and they did hit the post, then had the clearance cleared off the line near the end.
I thought that Whitehead and Huws were class. Whitehead was everywhere and his fitness has really improved since the start of the season. He seems to have also taken over the captain's role really well and I think he will be a main stay in the team. I slated him at the start of the season so some humble pie for me
Huws is a quality player and I can see him being our record signing in January. Looking at easily £2 mill plus to get him though. He is composed on the ball, not quite as tricky as Butts, but very effective and one hell of a shot! Should also keep getting better as he gets fitter!
Scanz didn't really get much service, which was a shame because their LB didn't look great. He will play a part this season though and just needs to get on the ball more. Carayol looked decent in the 1st 20 mins but end product wasn't there and was rightly subbed in the 2nd half.
If only we had James Vaughan on the bench! He would have been a been a great option with 20 mins to go and help get Miller off the pitch! He needed a wheelchair after 60 mins and is nowhere near fit enough to get through 90 mins and the Forest CB's had a comfortable night against him. I still don't think he is a regular starter or of the quality needed at this level. But, if that's all we have then there is nothing we can do about it!
My only worry is the lack of goals from the strikers because Miller is going to struggle to get into double figures and Nahki doesn't fit into the system at the moment. Maybe Leon Best is more mobile than Miller but he isn't prolific either! We need more goals from Carayol and Scans to compensate for our lack of goals up front, which is dangerous!

In order to succeed, your desire for success should be greater than your fear of failure
