There wasn't much to say about Nottingham Forest's away game. Short on players, Nottingham Forest predictably lost to Arsenal by 3:1, which could be counted as a complete failure.
Twain followed the team to London, but he could not direct the game in the technical area due to his ban. He and Assistant Manager Kerslake, who was also sent off with a red card, sat in the stands as they helplessly watched their team besieged by Arsenal. The Forest team did not show its usual drive at all.
Dunn carried out the acting manager's authority in the game. But just as Twain once thought, Dunn was a brilliant assistant manager, but not a qualified manager. He was able to do the supporting work perfectly, but could not make decisions on his own.
Without a definite view, he would not know what to do. If the manager was that way, the players would be even more so.
