Billy Davies believes the sending off of Neil Taylor worked to Swansea's advantage rather than his sides

The Nottingham Forest manager was speaking after the 0-0 draw with Swansea City at the City Ground and he said "It makes life difficult, because they sit deep and it does not make life easy for you

"It looked like a sending off, it looked like a bad challenge. But it helped them more than us.

"It seemed to lift their energy and they just sat deep and made life tough.

"That is what can happen in games like this.

"I am not interested in them. I know that we have dangerous players who can create and score goals," said Forest boss Davies. "I am telling you that it is all to play for in the second game.

"There is no favourite. If we had won 1-0 or 2-0, there still would not be a favourite. This game will turn on its head in the second match. We have to go to Swansea and produce a performance.

"We have to go there in a positive frame of mind. Both Guy and Robbie Findley could be back in on Monday and there is no doubt that Guy could certainly help us."
