Nottingham Forest extended their unbeaten run to seven league games with a 2-0 win over Peterborough United at the City Ground.

The Reds huffed and puffed against Darren Ferguson's relegation threatened Posh but ran out comfortable winners in the end. James Garner broke the deadlock after 72 minutes and Ryan Yates sealed the three points in the closing exchanges to keep Forest firmly pushing in the right direction.

Steve Cooper's men are now just five points off of the top six as they prepare to go to Swansea City and host Hull City before Christmas. The Reds had drawn five of their previous six matches with other teams hitting their stride around them so taking maximum points in this match was essential to their play-off hopes.

 

 

Peterborough are now five points from safety, one point worse off than they were at the beginning of play as Reading and Hull played out a 1-1 draw at the Select Car Leasing Stadium.

Looking at where Forest were when Cooper took over, to have supporters dreaming of competing for a top six spot as we head towards the busy Christmas period is an incredible turnaround. The Reds have lost just one of 14, winning seven and drawing the other six since Chris Hughton's departure, demonstrating that the quality in the squad has been present all along.
