Davies happy with point after flat display

Nottingham Forest boss Billy Davies admitted his side were far from their best and was happy to come out of their 2-2 draw with Barnsley with a "great" point. The Tykes were leading 2-0 when Adam Hammill tripped Chris Gunter as he sprinted through the visitors' defence. Lewis McGugan scored from the spot and substitute Nathan Tyson scrambled an equaliser 10 minutes from time, cancelling out Barnsley's goals from Matthew Hill and Andy Gray. Davies said: "Our performance was very flat. We didn't deserve anything with the way we went about our business. I think we were still suffering from the aftermath of our last game and one or two heads were still on that game. "I'm delighted to have got something and at the end of it all it's a great point. "We defended badly for both of their goals. We plotted our own downfall by the way we went about things. We just didn't play with the energy that has got us where we are, we didn't play with enthusiasm and we were not our usual selves. It was always a concern after being on such a high after beating our local rivals, considering the energy we used and the psychological effect it had."
