Review
Wow...we took a great, deserved lead (courtesy of Scott McKenna's first Forest goal) and then let it slip away and allowed Coventry to run all over us for the last 20 minutes but we got a last second penalty! Lyle Taylor scored in the 97th minute (after being fouled) and we have a win!
Stats:
