Nottingham Forest boss Billy Davies praised the determination of his players after they fought back from a goal down to earn a 1-1 draw at Cardiff to preserve their unbeaten away record.
Substitute Lewis McGugan struck in injury-time to earn the Reds a deserved point after Jay Bothroyd had given the Welsh side the lead after 63 minutes.
"This has shown what strong discipline is required playing at the top half of the table. There are lessons to be learned, but I am delighted because it is a fantastic point for us," said Davies, who was particularly pleased with the first-half performance.
He added: "We played some excellent football in the first 45 minutes, it was first class. (David) McGoldrick, (Radoslaw) Majewski and (Paul) Anderson all had chances.
"Great credit to the players and also the away fans who were once again fantastic. But we didn`t start the second half as brightly, we stopped passing the ball and stopped playing at the same tempo."

Exactly Cameron. What was he thinking? Take off your 2 best players and put on a 7 foot tall donkey and a guy who hasn't been playing (Ok he scored a great goal but even so). Davies is indeed a clown mate.
This clown almost cost his side victory with his ludicrous substitutions.
