Nottingham Forest fans send thank you message as rivals Derby County help Reds promotion push

Nottingham Forest fans have been reacting to promotion rivals Fulham dropping points on Friday evening.

The Cottagers were in action against Derby County, and had to settle for a point with a 1-1 draw at Pride Park.

Wayne Rooney opened the scoring from the penalty spot, before Aleksandar Mitrovic equalised for the visitors.

Forest are now two points behind third-placed Fulham as they prepare to face Queens Park Rangers at the City Ground on Saturday.

A win for the Reds would see them edge closer to the automatic promotion places, as they seek a return to the Premier League.

Here is a selection of what Forest fans had to say after Fulham’s draw with Derby.

Newark Dave: “Not a bad result that.”

Bish: “Will take that result. We just need to do the business tomorrow!”

Peter O’Hanraha-Hanrahan: “That’ll do result wise.”

Will Thorpe: “Derby don’t win, Fulham drop two points and a win tomorrow and we go ahead of them, roll on 3pm tomorrow!”

Jax: “I'm man enough to say thank you #DCFC for drawing Fulham. That's a great result for us and now #NFFC must take advantage.”

Adam: “A win tomorrow and we climb at least 1 place...”

Simon Holbrook: “Great result..!”
