The longer the winless run in the league went on for Dyche, who replaced 39-day manager Ange Postecoglou, the worse things could have got.
They were only behind for two minutes and 17 seconds in between Nmecha’s opener and Sangare’s strike.
It is telling that Gibbs-White, who failed to get a move to Tottenham in the summer, has now scored three times under Dyche – after netting none under the
It had looked until the hour mark as if Forest might have been in for a frustrating 1-1 draw, which would have changed the narrative somewhat.
“If it had gone the other way today, after losing to Bournemouth, drawing with Manchester United, one point out of three Premier League games means all of a sudden the discontent is there, especially at home,” said Murphy.
But that is not what happened.
Dyche said the team are “still a work in progress” as Forest look to get back to the level on the pitch they were at during his time in the academy.
“When I was here 1987-90, that team was finishing regularly in the top six of the old First Division and winning the Littlewoods Trophy [the EFL Cup] as it was then,” he said.

Everton manager David Moyes will “push the club forward”, says predecessor Sean Dyche.
Moyes was appointed on Saturday for his second spell in charge, two days after Dyche was sacked.
Dyche took charge in January 2023, helping Everton finish one place above the Premier League relegation zone in 2023-24 and 15th last season – 14 points clear of relegation despite an eight-point deduction for breaching financial regulations.
Everton are currently
Moyes had an 11-year spell in charge of Everton from 2002 to 2013 and managed the club for more than 500 games.
During that time he took the Toffees to the 2009 FA Cup final, losing to Chelsea, and guided them to nine top-eight finishes, including a fourth-place finish in 2004-05, which took Everton into the Champions League qualifying rounds.

The Friedkin Group are in position after completing their takeover of Everton in December and will be assessing all facets of the club.
But the most pressing concern will be the position of boss Dyche and they now have a decision to make – do they attempt to see out the season with him in charge, hoping they stay up, or roll the dice and make a change?
Speculation is
The Friedkin Group’s takeover of Everton from Farhad Moshiri has created “more of a positive energy” around the club, says Toffees boss Sean Dyche.
The deal, which was completed on 19 December and is believed to be worth in excess of £400m, ended Moshiri’s turbulent reign at Goodison Park.
The British-Iranian businessman bought a 49.6% share of the club in 2016 before increasing his stake to 94.1% six years later.
Financial issues and uncertainty around the takeover have left Everton battling at the wrong end of the Premier League table in recent years and it is a similar story this campaign.
The club sit in 16th place and are just three points above the relegation zone.
Dyche’s contract expires at the end of the season and, asked about his future, he said: “Winning games always stands you in good stead.
Sean Dyche says he is working harder than he ever has as a manager to turn around Everton’s gloomy season.
The Toffees have won just twice in this Premier League campaign and sat two points above the relegation zone in 15th heading into the midweek programme.
