I take that tbh. We were not playing well. We deserved a draw so did they. Status Quo. Onwards and upwards.

Super save by Burge . Could have won fair result

They were all over us in the second half - we looked second best so a point is a positive

Decent point and 16 points from 18, not bad!

Anyway, unbeaten in 6 and off to the pub to celebrate that and watch the Arse vs Liverpool. Safe travels home for those that were at the game.

Why? Other than Charlton his offered nothing and he has no ability to hold balls up. He should have taken Hiwula off for Jones. Bakayoko and Hiwula upfront would win nothing

Decent point after disappointing performance
Progress from last year.... we would have lost that game
Onwards and upwards and two weeks to get Baylis and Sterling fit.

I didn't want him to hold anything up, I wanted him to try and get in behind and score.

Jch did nothing really today.

History will have to wait for another day...

Still Accrington have been something of a bogey team for us lately, plus they've been doing well lately, so a point isn't all that bad, really. Another late goal for us to add to the list, we're getting good at that! Obviously not our best performance, but at least we didn't lose.

Added time was 5 min so he added 1 min for it- nowhere near enough

In my opinion that is a good point, certainly better than the alternative.
It is easy to be over critical but they dug in and got a point. Well done to all 13 players in getting a point against a canny side.

Take that. Once they got to grips with our threat down the left after the first 20 we were second best.
We're developing a good habit of nicking points we probably don't deserve but we need to improve some of our basics if we want to challenge.

If you were the ref we would have probably got a couple of penalties and their goal would have been disallowed

When you change a team you will suffer and so it proved. MR's tactics were wrong today bringing in Ogogo instead of Kelly was a negative. Don't think Ogogo will even make the bench next game. Kelly for me adds that bit of ability and confidence in the middle in support of Doyle. Jones should be a starter next week but not for Chaplin who ran his socks off and was denied a goal by a brilliant save. I expect Bayliss if still out will give MR's opportunity to play Jones. JCH fairly effective at times but again not much coming from him when given the chance or needing to hold the ball up. Though he won a few headers today that failed to find a blue shirt. I'm tempted to play Hiwula up top with Jones, Bayliss and Thomas in the side to play through them.
Dogged at the back but for Willis mistake today leading to a goal. We missed Sterling.

The notion he could play as an out and out striker with Jones is laughable
