Nottingham Forest - Derby County

A very rare goal from outside the box for Grabban yesterday, that doesn't happen very often.

Good performance from Forest, thought 1-0 slightly flattered them, we were clearly the better team despite it being a tight game.

I thought Grabban was immense again yesterday, people used to call him lazy but only Silva and Yates appeared to cover more ground. 

Derby had some excellent chances to get something from the game. We kept a clean sheet but that doesn’t tell the whole story. Lawrence and Marriott ought to have scored. Had Yates been sent off then there would have been some nashing of teeth but it wouldn’t have been overly surprising. Sometimes the little things go your way, I think they did yesterday and you need a little luck if you’re gonna get promoted. 

Nine games to go until the window reopens, it would be great if we could still have the same gap between us and Fulham come 1 January.
