Really? People get dazzled by bayliss runs but in reality he wastes it.

When's the Robins out shite due? We were the better side we just need to make better decisions. Played some lovely football at times.

It all very lovely but doesn't go anywhere. We don't create much.

Not sure why you think Robins should be anywhere near going.

Feels like a win. We were the better side overall though they had the better chances to score. A fair result and a sign that we are not far off. They are a good outfit but I did not see much of that particularly. Has to be said we gifted their goal. Our passing was somewhat frustrating at times. Grimmer did well enough but still think Sterling would give us more. Shooting practice would be a good idea.

What did he do? A few turns then greedy awful mishit shots

He could have played about 2 people in at the end.

Not at all. Mentioned final decision lacking. But that doesn't mean you discount his lazy runs. Don't underestimate how his gallop move us up the pitch almost nfl like

Great to get an equaliser, but not a good performance.

Would like to give them a run together. We're going to struggle for a top 6 with JCH+Chaplin.

Injury to Jones came at a bad time for the momentum of the game. We were all over them at that point and it just took the sting out of our play and Peterborough regrouped after that.

You see 'oh my word, Burge' and 'Burge FFS' and people are going to think he's either let a soft goal in or given away a pen'.

Doesn't go anywhere? All that was missing was a shot or better decision time after time, we cut through them a few times with good football. We overplay a bit tbh.
We ain't going to create gilt edged chance after chance, nobody does apart from in the imagination of people on here.

Thought Chaplin had a poor game personally. Mostly because he constantly had 3 or 4 defenders around him though. Obviously scored though so that counts for a lot. Thomas would be my MOTM.

I love Doyle but that's twice in recent weeks he's cost us a goal with his poor passing and his performance last week was poor.
Let's not tarnish his legacy MR, time to look at changing it in centre mid.

What was wrong with the performance apart from a bit of composure in the final 3rd?

They defended very well but we were very wasteful.

You couldn't see how Chaplin dropped off into the gap and got us on the ball, or how he collected two balls from corners and set up Thomas on the counter? Did you watch the match?

Two good draws where we have turned a defeat in to a point at home. Nothing to be ashamed of tonight.

It was great up until the final third. We miss a natural goalscorer. I'm not sure if it's players not being in the right position or final balls that are poor but there is something that needs fixing there. We could have torn them apart, we had so much pressure but zero cutting edge. We miss a clinical striker, Chaplin needs time still and we don't seem to want to try anyone else .

In the end and under the circumstances we have to be happy with 1-1, should have won had the better of one of the fancied teams and kept our heads up when it looked we might succumb to a sucker goal. In the top 6 for a day but have proved we can get there atleast, not half way through the season yet, we will get better.

Yeah agree, I think it was Brown put a great ball in near the end right on the line of the 6 yard box in the middle of the goal, not one of our 3 players in the box anticipated it
