Davies claims he was kneed in the back of the leg by Clough following a mass melee in the closing stages of Derby's fiery 1-0 win over Forest.[LNB]Forest chief Davies refused to shake hands with Clough at the final whistle and he insists the Rams boss intentionally set out to hit him[LNB]"I'll tell you what happened and you can ask Nigel Clough this, because I said to him that he was out of order when I was in the middle [of the skirmish]," said Davies.[LNB]"He came in and kneed me in the back of the leg. I said to him that I wouldn't have minded him doing it to my face but to do it to my back was a bit cowardly and that's why I never shook his hand at the end. [LNB]"He tried to claim it was an accident but he knows as well as I know that it wasn't an accident. [LNB]"I have no doubt in my mind over what happened, hence why I never shook his hand."[LNB]Clough declined to comment when quizzed about Davies' accusations but the Rams boss could find himself in trouble with the Football Association should the allegations be proved to be true.[LNB]The FA have confirmed they are investigating the mass melee. Officials are studying the referee's report and video evidence before deciding on any charges.[LNB]An FA spokesman said: "We are investigating the events at Pride Park."[LNB][LNB] Coca Cola Ch'ship 09/10 Win Outright: Nott'm Forest 5/2
