Head coach Steve Cooper has stressed there can be no getting carried away with Nottingham Forest’s victory over Brighton and Hove Albion.
That explains the lack of full-time fist-pumps from the Reds boss after his team ended an 11-match winless streak by triumphing 3-1 at the City Ground. Amid a cauldron of noise Trentside, Pascal Gross’ own goal, Danilo’s first for the club and a Morgan Gibbs-White penalty clinched a crucial victory for the hosts.
Three points lifted Forest out of the relegation zone ahead of Saturday’s trip to Brentford. But Cooper has made clear they need to build on their midweek result if they are to finish above the dreaded dotted line.
