Des Walker played the full 90 minutes in a 1-0 Forest reserves win over Chelsea. The average crowd saw Des marshall the youngster around him. Micheal Dawson scored the only goal of the game, flicking on a Craig Westcarr freekick.

good win for them then

A few of the players can still play for the u19's and I think Westcar can play for the u17's.

Des Walker says he does not expect to force his way into the Nottingham Forest limelight before the end of the season.
The former England defender is on trial at The City Ground with a view to securing a permanent return to the club where he started his career.
Walker has played two and a half reserve games for The Reds during which time the second string have not conceded a single goal.
But the 36-year-old still believes he's some way from a return to full match fitness after almost a year out of the game.
Walker says: "I think it will probably take me five or six games to really get myself match fit - although what I really need is to get a pre-season behind me.
"It's up to the manager whether I play before the end of the season or not. As far as he's concerned it's all about winning football matches. It's not about Des Walker.
"We'll just have to wait and see but with just three games left it's looking unlikely."
