Billy Davies continued his media exile after the game and it was Kelly who was left scratching around for positives after a 5-0 defeat at the hands of Forest's biggest rivals.
Speaking to the official club website he said the Reds' were 'disappointed in the manner we conceded the goals,' while paying tribute to the large travelling support.
Jonathan Greening was also wheeled out to speak to the official site but Davies' silence hasn't stopped a host of rumours about his future.
Sunday newspaper reports suggest that Neil Warnock is being lined up as a replacement but it is unlikely that any change will be made before Tuesday night's game at home to Charlton Athletic.
