I think theres alot of average teams in this league, and I would be dissapointed finishing any lower than we currently are. Just look at Birmingham, been poor when I've seen them on the TV and weren't up to much yesterday. Yet they are 5th.

That being said we have been average at best for a while now. We need to start picking up, playing for 90 minutes rather than strolling through the first half. Our first half record is embarrassing.

Hopefully we can get going next week from minute 1.
Did you have your eyes closed during the first half? You were fortunate not to be 4 or 5 goals down at half time. We slacked off second half but I thought we just about deserved to win based on chances created. We will play better sides and win more convincingly and play worse sides and lose. That's the nature of football.

I thought you lot were pretty poor. We're not going to pull up any trees this season but we battered you and if only we could have finish, I could only see one winner by 2 or 3 goals. Unfortunately for us, wasn't the case.

Your keeper was given MOTM which says it all. Oh and David Cotterill is a massive c***

I don't know, they were all over us first half. Think we saw the good and bad sides to both teams. Neither really deserved to lose, should've been 4-4.

I think we'll both end up finishing around the same place, just outside the playoffs.

We were lucky to be level at half time but didn't deserve to be anywhere near 4 or 5 down.

Second half it felt like a goal for us was imminent pretty much all the way through, it just wasn't to be.

On chances created though a draw would have been a fair result I thought, but it leaves a bitter taste especially after that disgrace of a referee (for both sides) pulled play back for a free kick with us in a very very dangerous position, it wasn't even a bloody red card. I think he realised he fucked up massively by pulling play back and covered it by pulling the red out.

Aside from the result thought it was an excellent game for one so low scoring.

That save from Tomlin's free kick was ridiculous

There was the block from Kieftenbeld when Fielding was off his line, the shot from Donaldson that came off the inside of the post, Fielding’s save from Cotterill that was swerving to the top corner, Davis’ shot that skimmed just wide… all great chances. Plus the two attempts from Jutkiewicz in the second half, the shot that was blocked off the line by Flint and the header from close-range. Your only real chances came from Abraham’s header and that free-kick from Tomlin. On chances created... we deserved to win.

And Flint's free header. And Abraham's chance just after. And Reid's volley with half the goal to aim at. Or his shot from the angle, plus the couple of times he tried and should've found Abraham for a tap in. Pack's drive that was brilliantly tipped over by Kuszczak. His header that went inches wide. Not to mention Bryan's chance in the first half after walking through your defense.

That's just off the top of my head. Great game tbf
