Nottingham Forest supporters are daring to dream of an automatic promotion place
Brennan Johnson opened the scoring 25 minutes into the match after bundling home from close range to put the Reds ahead. Manchester United loanee James Garner doubled the advantage just after the half-hour mark with an emphatic finish high into the net.
The win puts Forest up to fifth in the Championship table. Here is a selection of the social media reaction to the result.

Jon Riley: Great win against a good Coventry team. Don't worry about others, just keep winning.
Kevin Brennan: We slip and slide as we fall in love and I just can't seem to get enough of you, NFFC.
SouthWestRed: I’ll keep banging the Scott McKenna is the best centre half in the league drum.
@4evaNFFC: That will do nicely boys. Keinan, Garner, Figs and McKenna were outstanding. Love this club.
Dan Peacock: Tonight was always gonna be a very tricky fixture and for good reason - Cov looked dangerous all evening and love a late goal. Very decent outfit. Says so much about this Forest team that they got through that so professionally and make it look so easy in that second half.
Mick McHugh: Marching on and looking good. 5th place with games in hand on those around us. Only eight behind Bournemouth who we still have to play.....could we? Confidence high and a winning mentality instilled in the team....could we? Maybe, just maybe, we could. I Just Can't Get Enough.
@JMChambers1975: So Bournemouth's next two games are Sheff Utd then M'boro and they still have to play us......Just saying. We have some tough away games but we are even better away from home!!
