Forest boss Calderwood defiant
NOTTINGHAM Forest manager Colin Calderwood remained defiant after his side lost 2-1 at QPR.
Angelo Balanta and Akos Buzsaky scored to give Rangers a much-needed victory and leave Forest without a win in nine games.

Forest are still bottom of the Coca-Cola Championship and frustration is growing among their supporters – some of whom barracked Calderwood after his 76th-minute substitution of Paul Anderson, who had been the visitors' best player.
But Calderwood insisted: "We will get through this stage and will be better for it. We'll end up stronger.
"We've got good players and they are better than their position in the league suggests.
"We want to be successful. We don't want to be bottom of the league but learning periods aren't always successful.
"But we've got to arrest this quickly. We can't be blase about it and say we're doing well, because we're not."

“At last a right thinker, Rome was not built in a day, and CC is the man--good on you Nev--
CC got us promoted and this division is not like last year it will take time to understand what is needed to survive.
CC is definately the man for us.”

“I have been suggesting that CC is not the man but as usual I went on saturday and the Reds looked a lot better ,they actually passed the ball well. Maybe I was wrong and we should give CC more time.”

“Yes the result are pants. Yes the results have gone against us.Yes the league position is rubbish. BUT, Yes calderwood is the man to lead us out of this! Yes he has an eye for talent ( look at Guy ) and No he is not responsible for dubious goals and dodgy decisions. I say stick with Mr Calderwood, If we don't benefit from him some other team will ( look at the other players who have left Forest and have flourished!”

“When CC took the job both he and ND publically stated this was a FIVE YEAR PLAN!!!! so if you think CC is going anywhere then your all very much mistaken and if you plan on holding your breath then your gonna be long gone before he is”
