Insane scenes at the end. We were shite but showed a good desire last 20 mins or so.

BNC best game for us, could tell he wanted it.
Gotta say it again, Godden is a bit of a ledge at this club for what he's done but he has gone too far the wrong way. Walker needs to start next game

That is why I love football and the sky blues! 96th minute equaliser ( feels like a winner ) from the bloody goalkeeper! Will never forget this 😂

Watched it time after time. It's not handball. The groin of Wilson doing what it does best

Current trajectory is still 70 points for 6th place. Meaning we need 2 wins and a draw from the final 3 games. Tough, but not impossible.

Reasons to be cheerful:

8 games unbeaten away
Closest to the PL since 2002
4 points clear of where we finished last year
Only 2 points off beating last years total points tally
Only 4 points off beating our highest ever points tally at this level

Regardless of what happens this season, we are a club that is seriously progressing.

6 years ago we were pretty much dead. I expected us to be non league by about 2020

Came on to read the half time comments. They didn’t disappoint 😂 so many absolute knee-jerkers on here. If we can get a draw here tonight it’s been a good 48 hours.

Posted this at half time and stand by it at full time. The majority of you are a shambles.

We have a chance of promotion to the Premier League with 3 games to go and the comments on here towards our manager (his tactics) and our players were atrocious, verging on vitriolic.

We’ve just gone away from home and competed against a top 6 side in a cagey, nervy game and come away with a point. Most of the sides around us dropped points or lost.

Most of you on this site need to get some perspective, even when we’re playing badly (as we did tonight). So proud of this club. PUSB

Best thing is I don’t think we are under any kind of pressure at all. Not sure the players manager or most fans truly think at this point we are going to win the play offs and get promoted. It’s just a great adventure. Meanwhile next up a team under real pressure to stay up.

Pressure got to them in the first half.

Bidwell obviously injured and we were far too nervous.

That Wilson goal will get them starting to believe.

Ultimately we need to win the two games coming and see where it lands us. We don’t do that we’ll be out of it anyway.

Exactly. If we had won tonight but lost those then it wouldn't have mattered.

What we have done tonight is deny a play off rival of 2 points

that’s not the handball. It’s the first touch before it gets that far but I’m still dubious,, it hits round his hand but couldn’t have known much it’s more just lucky than anything

Video from behind the goal looks like it his his chest.

Some stupid generalisations in this post fella. There were over 470 people watching this thread. So ‘the majority of you’ ‘most of you on this site’ isn’t the brightest.
It was a passionate massive game. Just accept the ebbs and flows of fan game emotions. That’s football.
Cheer up we drew :0)

Reading will be fighting for their lives and we have to match that. Likewise Birmingham are going to be right up for it. Very hard now without Sheaf as well but as long as we’re in it, stranger things have happened.

Yes, the real blow to our chances tonight was the Sheaf injury. Let's hope Allen is fit for Saturday.

You have to be on the wind up. Nonsense post. Any thoughts on Bidwell letting their player have 10 mins to pick out his team mate for their goal?

Chest it is.

The worst referee of the season with one of the greatest decisions I've ever seen.
Not conclusive enough, hits his chest first then his hand for me

Still who cares, we deserved a point!

Agree about Reading and Brum, but they say there are no easy games in this division.

Didn't someone say on here that Robins said Sheaf is fine?
