Nottingham Forest 3 v 2 Yeovil Town
Sat 03 May 2008
Nottingham Forest are promoted to the Championship after beating Yeovil while Doncaster were beaten by Cheltenham.
The first half could not have gone much better for Forest who took an early two-goal lead before Yeovil got one back. But Forest soon got their two-goal advantage back and when Cheltenham scored against Doncaster it was a perfect first half.
Forest seemed more nervous in the second half, allowing Yeovil to get back into the game and get a goal back. But Forest composed themselves and held on to take the three most important points of the season.
