Colin Calderwood believes Nottingham Forest are better equipped for life in the Championship after three frustrating seasons in League One.Forest secured their place in this season's play-offs this week and Calderwood is confident his side will not see a repeat of last season's semi-final nightmare, where they let a 2-0 first-leg lead slip to lose 2-5 to Yeovil at the City Ground.

Calderwood told the Nottingham Evening Post: "We have got different pluses to us now, than we had last year.

"We more or less had the game won or, at the very least, we should have had the game going to penalties at the end of extra-time.

"We hope that we don't find ourselves in a situation as adverse as that again but, if we do, could we manage the situation so that we can get through to penalty kicks and take a chance with that? I think so."
