This Was The New Side To Play And With My Strongest Squad Out I Wanted A Win. They Showed This And In The First 5 Minutes A Commons Cross Was Deflected To Tyson Who Shot From A Tight Angle Which Hit The Net. 1 - 0 Forest And We Was Back On Winning Ways. We Didn't Want To Stop There And Kept Dominating. We Got Our Reward In The 21st Minute When A Good Ball From Southall On His Return Met The Head Of Jack Lester At The Near Post To Make It 2-0. Carlisle Came Back Instantly Looking For A Goal And In The 34th Minute A Poor Keeping Error Left Luke Joyce To Make It 2-1. We Came Back And Dominated For The Rest Of The Half With Us Getting And Obvious Disallowed Goal Just Before The Break. I Went In At The Break And Encouraged The Boys To Keep At What There Doing. They Did Exactly That And In The 46th Minute A Great Ball From James Perch Left Tyson 1on1 To Make It 3-1 Forest. I Was Delighted! We Carried On Dominating And When The 64th Minute Came I Decided To Make Some Subs To Give The Rest A Run Out. Stewart, Grant Holt And Gary Holt Came On For Tyson, Lester And James Perch. The 2 Strikers Got A Standing Ovation And I Was Hoping The 2 New Strikers Who Came On Where Going To Make A Big Impact Aswell. They Did Exactly That With Stweart Hitting The Bar But Not Being Able To Find The Net On The Rebound. We Carried On Dominating And When The Final Whistle Went I Was Happy We Were Getting Back On Winning Ways In The League.
