Boss Jim Magilton was pleased with his side's display at Nottingham Forest but conceded that they didn't threaten the bottom of the table side enough. Tommy Miller's penalty gave the Blues a point after they had fallen behind to Garath McCleary's opener.
Magilton said: "I thought we controlled the game for long periods and in all honesty I was disappointed we didn't take all three points.
"We passed the ball extremely well and maybe our quality in the final third of the field let us down a little bit.
"When we were scored I thought we would go on and win the game and we had opportunities. David Wright had a good chance and we had other bits and pieces around the box.
"It was a bad goal to give away but at half-time we had the belief that we could go on and get something out of the game.
"But we'll take the point because I feel we are improving all the time and I feel we are capable of stringing together the kind of results that will lift us up the table.
"We have shown great togetherness as a team and if we can get a few more wins behind us our confidence will really grow."
Forest boss Colin Calderwood was pleased with his team's endeavour if not their quality: "It might not have been the best performance from us but the players had hearts as big as buckets. They put a huge amount of effort into the game and got the reward of a point at the end of it.
"We have certainly played better but hopefully the point we have picked up will set us off in the right direction.
"It was good to take the lead but to concede a penalty when there was very little danger on our goal was the sort of thing that has been happening to us this season.
"They could have been deflated after seeing a soft penalty given against them but they dug in and inspired one another with the sheer commitment they showed."
