Clayton Donaldson, Jon Toral and David Davis all had chances to score in the second half but only David Davis was able to test Carl Ikeme who proved to be up to the challenge.

Forest Reflections

Blues could only away with a point from the City Ground in what was a scrappy game. Jon Toral headed the visitors in front only for Matt Mills to equalise shortly after, heading home David Vaughan’s free kick.

A Christmas Cracker – MK Dons Reflections

Birmingham City returned to winning ways for the second game in succession at St Andrew’s against MK Dons. Jacques Maghoma scored his first goal at home in Blues colours to settle the game but in fairness the 1-0 scoreline flattered the visitors.
