Nottingham Forest boss Billy Davies did try to recruit before the loan window closed, but is now turning his attention to January.
Davies, meanwhile, has given his backing to Jamaal Lascelles despite the young defender's mistake against Reading on Friday night. "That's young players for you, that's what you get," said Davies of Lascelles' involvement in Reading's second strike. "They'll have good games, they'll have bad games. "He cost us the second goal because of the marking arrangement, but that's his age and he will get experience in every game he plays. "We'll keep working with these young boys and do what we can in regards to turning them from boys into men very quickly. "He's fitted in quite well and done well in some games and not so well in others. He's a young player, like Jamie Paterson, Karl Darlow and one or two others. They're here for the long-term, not just for the sprint, and they'll just get better and better."
