The wrong side was chosen and defeat followed. Playing Paul Cook (and may he never darken a Stanley shirt again) meant we surrendered the initiative from the start and had no width. It was telling the opposition we were concerned about them and were playing to keep the point we started with. When Lutel, who should have started, came on we were a different and better side. There was a piece in the press recently how Forest played a terrible first half and expected a right rollicking from Cloughie at half time. He never appeared in the dressing room though. He was, however, waiting outside as the team went out for the second half. He held his hand up and said it wasn't their fault to the players. His only other words were, "I picked the wrong team!" Truly, a Big Man and football genius. If only all managers, when necessary, behaved similarly.
