Review
The Scunthorpe Telegraph reports that this was a game against a Forest XI (i.e. with some of the reserves), but a hat-trick from Kevin Keegan is always worth an inclusion. The Forest lineup was: Michael Dilnot, Harris, Bridgett, John Piekalnietis, John Cottam, White, James McCaffrey, Johnson, Duncan McKenzie, Graham Collier, Buckley, Roberts. The goals were scored by White (35), Collier (44) and Duncan McKenzie (54 and 85)
