Nottingham Forest manager Steve Cotterill was happy with his side's 2-0 win against Coventry City, despite a nervous first-half performance.
Goals from Gareth McCleary and substitute Robbie Findley have lifted Forest out of the relegation zone.
"We are pleased with certainly our second-half performance," Cotterill told Sky Sports News.
"The first half was a bit stuttery, I felt that there was so much nervousness today around the whole place and I think what happens is that does transmit to the players, probably more than what they already are, if you know what I mean.
"So we had a good chat at half time and I thought that they were superb in the second half."
Cotterill's side travel to high-flying Birmingham City next Saturday.
