Dougie Freedman has admitted that he is disappointed that Nottingham Forest let a one-goal lead slip in stoppage time of their Championship match against his former club Bolton Wanderers.

David Vaughan scored with eight minutes remaining before Stephen Dobbie equalised to ensure the teams shared the points.

"I am disappointed being 1-0 up with a few minutes to go," Freedman told BBC Sport. "But overall it was a good performance and I have no complaints with the result. We looked reasonably comfortable until Bolton got the equaliser.

"It was always going to be a challenge for myself and the team coming back here. But no one can take away how hard I worked for [Bolton Wanderers]. No doubt the club was in decline and I couldn't stop that decline."

Freedman joined Forest in February after being sacked by Bolton last year.
