Stuart Pearce accepts Nottingham Forest defeat to Blackburn Rovers

Nottingham Forest manager Stuart Pearce has admitted that he has no complaints with his side's defeat to Blackburn Rovers in the Championship.

Forest conceded three goals in 12 second-half minutes at the City Ground on Saturday as their winless run was extended to seven matches with a 3-1 loss.

"It was a disappointing afternoon and I am not going to gloss over that," Pearce is quoted as saying by Sky Sports News.

"We as a group and as coaching staff, we have to galvanise ourselves and make sure that we work hard, from Monday morning, to make sure we deliver a performance next weekend."

Forest return to Championship action next Saturday when they make the trip to Huddersfield Town.
