Nottingham Forest's assistant manager David Kelly praised Robert Earnshaw after Friday's FA Cup fourth round clash with Derby County.

The Wales international grabbed the equaliser in the 1-1 draw against his former club in a tempestuous encounter.

Kelly was in charge of Forest in the absence of Billy Davies, who was in Glasgow with his son William after he underwent a "major operation".

Kelly said after the draw: "I'm pleased for Earnie. He's worked really hard over the last few weeks and has regularly been scoring goals.

"When you come back to your old club you want to do well and show people what you're all about and I'm really pleased he scored a goal."
