Boss Roy Keane says Nottingham Forest’s progress from relegation strugglers last year to Championship promotion hopefuls this time around gives hope to other clubs such as Town having less than successful seasons. Forest finished 19th in 2008/09 but currently sit in third position, having been the only serious challengers to Newcastle and West Brom for the automatic promotion places.
Boss Paul Jewell hailed Town’s goals as good enough to grace any game after strikes in either half from Carlos Edwards and Jimmy Bullard saw the Blues to a 2-0 victory over Scunthorpe. The Blues boss felt his side should have sealed their win before half-time.
Boss Paul Jewell appears set to recall midfielder Lee Martin as the Blues look to lay to rest the ghost of August’s 7-1 defeat at London Road when Peterborough visit Portman Road on Saturday. The 25-year-old, sent off in that thrashing, was rested for last week’s game at Hull due to tiredness and concerns about the heavy surface at the KC Stadium.
