Looks like the game's on, I'm told they've just opened the turnstiles.

Apparently there's a pitch/ground inspection at the Alex right now. Half an hour before kick off.

Ah ok, so it's 2 in 8 weeks, rather that 8 weeks either side. Still a bit extreme though.

What, surely that can't be right

Yes really

Not a classic. Happy enough with a point when we were nowhere near our best.

I don't remember this

The more I read the Carlisle pessimism, the more convinced i am that we're going to lose tomorrow

Oldham definitely worst as at least Swindon have had a few promotions in the last 30 years...

Well that is fairly worrying

Definitely, for instance, I think Villa would be taking a huge risk if they recalled Marschall. He's been superb for us, but he's only just recovered his confidence after a horrific few months at MK, I'm not sure sending him to a higher league would be the right thing to do at the moment.

Yeah, he's been outstanding. I think we're getting to the point where it would be more surprising if Bolton don't recall him in January.

I think it's partly about trying to keep the positive feeling going. In the cold light of day, they'll look at it as a bit of a missed opportunity mixed with the relief of getting a point. But we're on a good run and the fans and players are all enjoying themselves and we're coming in to it on...

Watching on TV, I didn't think he got much wrong. There was maybe one where we were lucky to escape without a booking but I thought all of ours were pretty borderline and didn't think Vale could really complain about any of their bookings. We're all biased though, so maybe my bias is affecting...

I think it's pretty clear on the angle from behind the shot that it does take a slight deflection of Holicek. It doesn't really matter though, it was an absolute screamer and a slight touch off the defenders takes nothing away from that.

I think he's entitled to that opinion, but I also think Darren Moore is entitled to think Vale shaded it. It was basically pretty even - we had a good 20 minute spell of pressure without creating enough but Vale had the better chances in the first half.

Agree with pretty much every word of this. I'm fairly happy with the performance, we just lacked that slight cutting edge until we scored, but we were up against a team which defended superbly, and we kept going and found our reward. We could have won the game but as I said earlier, I'd have...

Where are you getting that from? Opta have us second.

I'd happily take a draw right now. However, I think you're overplaying it a bit. Vale are clearly a good team and rightly favourites, but just look at the results we got away to the top 3 last year - 7 points and it should have been 9. I'm not convinced that Vale are any better than Wrexham...

Luke Armstrong - best player outside the Championship is a sensational claim, even at the time.
