More points thrown away, what a shock.

I would've taken a point considering our horrendous line-up but to concede so late yet again is pathetic.

I'll take a point from today's game at Northampton considering our recent results against them.

Good game. Both teams had some good chances but we should have had it wrapped up at half time.

Few boos at the end directed at Hasselbaink, negative substitutions and allowing the team to sit deeper and deeper was the reason Jimbo.

Gillingham were shite. We should have won by more but our poor finishing and trying to let them back in near the end nearly cost us.

And the Scunthrope goal keeper deliberately picks up the ball outsdie of the box with our striker coming in and the ref only gives a yellow.

Another joke of a decision against us
Wasn't a goal scoring opportunity. Ref got it right tbf.
Personally I won't be complaining about a keeper only being booked for handling the ball after the one Puddy got away with in the conference play-off final! :lol:
Absolutely appalling game today. Will take a draw given how awful we were for 91 minutes. Probably a fair result. First draw at home in 364 days, which was also against Scunthorpe.

Very tight game today. Donny did a good job in the first half doing unto us as we do to those who play against us, and although it was a defensive error that led to their goal, it was a quality finish by Marquis. Second half we were much the stronger team and thoroughly outplayed them without being able to make the breakthrough. The equaliser was deserved and I think most of us were gratefully accepting the draw when the Donny keeper needlessly upended Smith for us to score with what was literally the last kick of the game, and I went absolutely apeshit.

First big home game won of our run in. Still got to play Rotherham, Scunthorpe, Portsmouth, Peterborough and Bristol Rovers all at home. Those will be the games that will decide where we finish in the table.

Even if we do miss out on the playoffs, it has been an incredible run and we can take a lot of confidence and momentum into next season. Great time to be a Green.

You play us at Glanford Park, we won 4-0 at Home Park.

Thought today was a pretty poor game between 2 that was made moderately entertaining because both defences were poor

Faz has been really bad as our caretaker, his lineups have been woeful, lets just get Bellamy in now and move on from this awful run, at least it wasn't another defeat

Cods v Mk, 2 very poor sides. At least we stopped the run of defeats, but the draw probably rules us out of automtic promotion now, so will have to be the lottery of the play-offs. Oh well.

Plymouth V Rotherham is starting to look like an epic fixture. Surely something’s got to give before it comes around?

Christ we are bad now. 2 wins in 11 games (I think), haven't won at home in 2018, havent had a clean sheet in 13 games and we have a huge injury list with noone to replace them. It's lucky we had a decent first half otherwise we would be down the bottom.

I have to admit with the money you've got and the fact KJ is an experienced manager that when I looked at the side you put out against Fleetwood I was surprised at how young it was. I noticed you got a few youngsters on loan from BPL clubs in January, have they not worked out as planned? KJ will have to get his recruitment better next season because your fans will want the playoffs, and rightfully so with your budget and size of crowds etc.

The team at the moment shows pretty clearly where the money isn't going. The fact is that we are playing catch-up off the pitch with essential ground work, training facilities etc. These areas were completely neglected for donkey's years.

The new owners refused to change this season's playing budget, which was agreed before they came in. The budget is a reasonable top-half budget but nowhere near Wigan/Blackburn levels. We got in four loan players in Jan - the new goalie got a season-ending injury in his first game. The two nippers from Wolves are just kids and haven't broken into the team. Anton Walkes from Spurs has done ok at full back. Midfield was where we desperately needed strengthening and that didn't happen.

Injuries to key players have really taken their toll though and as Fareham Pompey said, it's good that we have enough points in the bank already so relegation worries aren't an issue. Yesterday's performance was truly awful and I don't think Blackpool could quite believe how easy the game was for them.

Looks like your boys have got some momentum going now. Could be the form team going into the play-offs.

We were fucking dreadful yesterday. First shot on target came in the 94th minute.

This league must be piss poor. We've been turd since the turn of the year and are yet still only four points off the play-offs. Not that we have any chance of reaching them!

We've been horrendous since November yet are still 6 points in the play-offs. This league is very even, nobody is really that much better than anybody else.

For me it was a goal scoring opportunity - but football is about opinions i guess. Yep, Puddy should have been sent off that time, but blimey, that was nearly 3 years ago.

Onto Wigan tomorrow, expecting a thrashing if I'm honest

What's the chances of tomorrow's game going ahead Wimbledon fans? Seen some things going around about it being likely to be called off, don't wanna get halfway down for it to be postponed.

From a pitch perspective, the match should go ahead. Chelsea maintain the pitch and the covers are down. If it gets called off, it would be down to spectator safety.

If you're driving down, be prepared to park in local roads. The overflow car park is grass and gets very boggy. As car park supervisor, I (with Chief Safety's permission) decide when to close. If cars are getting stuck, I'll close it early.

I normally park in Avenue Terrace next to the Prince of Wales pub (believe the pub is closed now?). Walking distance, no yellow lines and easy escape after the game.

Update. Some of our supporters are concerned about public transport - London tends to grind to a halt at the slightest hint of snow. Best keep an eye on Southwest trains.

Alternative route if SW is buggered is Northern line to Tooting Broadway then a 131 or 57 bus. 131 stops outside the ground and the 57 stops outside Kingston Hospital about 10 minutes away. Buses don't take cash, it's contactless or oyster only. Alternatively you can buy a one day travel card.

Luckily (or perhaps not) I'm going down by car, though all the warnings I've seen about most of the South East rail network grinding to a halt this week doesn't fill me with hope that the game will go ahead - it's alright the pitch being playable but if no one can get there...
