October 20, 20187 yr I’d of settled for that 20mins ago, the main thing is not losing at clubs like that
October 20, 20187 yr Good point but please Parky no more 3-5-2 and we must start winning out home games.
October 20, 20187 yr A point away , suppose we should be happy with that .....Need to get some points on the board these next 2 home games.
October 20, 20187 yr A draw away to one of our relegation rivals denying them a win. Good to hear doige get his first as he seems like a confident player from what i have seen but still finding his feet
October 20, 20187 yr Cracking finish, and good work from Donaldson to win the ball and a none too shabby pass to Doidge either. Well done Parky for changing it up - he can’t be accused of not going for it with us finishing with such an attacking line up.

October 20, 20187 yr Going off the highlights it looks like we could have easily lost that. A point away is never a bad thing - roll on Wednesday night.
October 20, 20187 yr Decent save from the keeper for the pen. Am I the only one thinking Alnwick should have done better for theirs?

October 20, 20187 yr Let us not pretend otherwise. Two awful teams. They were better than us. We were lucky to get a point. Had that finished 1-0 everyone would be rightly furious. The first half was a joke. Edited October 20, 20187 yr by captainmed

They scored as many as we did, we saw plenty of the ball, played the much heralded two up top and hit the post for good measure?
October 20, 20187 yr It was a League 1 quality game for me but we've shown we can be better than that. Interesting to see Iles confirm Oztumer was simply left out today, not injured. Not even warranting a place on the bench? Bit much that.
October 20, 20187 yr Oztumer wouldn’t of affected that game today. In fact I don’t think many midfielders in the world would of, our midfield was bypassed for the entire game. I honestly can’t remember us stringing more than 5 passes together and if we carry on like that we’re in big trouble. On a positive note, Donaldson was inpressive and Doidge took his goal well. Surely only a matter of time before he gets a run of games.

Had that finished 1-0 everyone would be rightly furious. The first half was a joke. Exactly. Papered over the cracks with a draw. We should be going to teams like this and having a good go. First half was garbage. First 10 of the second half ok, then crap until last 10. My god, they weren't great, so who are we actually going to have a go at ?? the worry is, we go a goal down and don't really look like getting back in it and overall we just don't look like scoring. our set pieces today when we had a chance to get the ball in the box were terrible, what do we work on during the week? Is it that hard to swing a ball into the box ?? Edited October 20, 20187 yr by marple whites

When we say 2 awful teams it's like saying Barcelona and Sheff Utd are both good teams.

They dont lose away games (1 all season), we don't score goals at home. I'd take a point all day long.
October 20, 20187 yr You can't take a view on today without taking account of missing that pen We were better than them and should've won Our goal is fantastic and hopefully gives doidge a massive boost
October 20, 20187 yr I agree about our goal and the pen is a key aspect to the game, but they attacked us at will for long periods and always looked dangerous. They hit the bar and miss at least 2 point blank headers. So in my view, we were not better than them. Edited October 20, 20187 yr by marple whites
