Goalless draw which was probably the right result. I wasn't surprised that MR named another unchanged line-up, but really felt we should have even before the game because Shipley, Zain and McCallum looked like they needed a rest even at the weekend and tonight hasn't altered my opinion of that - changes needed for Saturday.

MR did make the early changes at HT, but they weren't as effective as against Brum. Could really do with the win against Rovers now though (although another draw wouldn't be a disaster).

Hard fought game. Ill take that draw

Another point closer to promotion!

Defence and keeper must have so mucj confidence right now. And i was v impressed with kelly and walsh again too. Worked hard defensively

O hare did little but i would start him from min 1 next game. Shipley abd westbeooke r young and need a break

All i will say to sbt tonight is dont focus on negatives if u will be in dreamland sat if we beat rovers.

No wasn’t, not gonna win em all taking the conditions into account 0-0 an ok result. Looks like the ref. bottled a penalty too.

Another poor game but at least it keeps the unbeaten run going, let's go and get three points at Bristol Rovers.

Only 3 defeats in 26 now, point away from home , clean sheet , if nothing else at least we are a difficult team to beat , a solid foundation to build on

Fleetwood only lost once at home all season too and failed to score in just 2 of 13 home games prior to this one.

It’s a fair enough point - they lose very few at home

If we had a Leon Clarke type number 9 we’d storm this league - we haven’t and with exception of the two away games when Godden ran riot we will have to tough it out like this most weeks

Not a bad result but if we want to be serious contenders these draws is what will let us down this season.

As long as win at Bristol that’s a decent result. Keeping the unbeaten run very important. Even though we didn’t play anywhere near our best we held them fairly comfortably

100% Clarke would turn us into auto contention for sure can you see anyone coming in though ?

Who - Allen? He's been on the bench for a while. Do you mean match fit, as I'm sure he played for quite a bit of a game several matches ago and looked really busy.

I'd move on Bakayoko and Hiwula and desperately try and find another striker before the deadline. We aren't going up with our current forward options. Tranmere and Wycombe aside 750k for Godden looks very questionable.

This will be fine if we win on saturday. If not we haven’t been able to squeeze draws into wins like an autos team can.

I’ve had a nasty feeling for a while that we’ll just miss out on autos and get beaten by Sunderland in the playoffs.

A decent enough point. A couple of changes for Saturday. I will be there and it’s my birthday- what can go wrong!

What a brilliant result!

Fleetwood very good team.

That point at the end of the season may well be priceless

Good point. I had a niggling feeling we’d lose this one all day.

The reason we’re in our current position is that we don’t lose games like this. Whereas, in the past we’d have definitely lost this one.

McCallum, Shipley and Westbrook need a break as they are out on there feet. McCallum could hardly run at the end tonight.

No. It’s too late really to get anyone who’s good enough - it’s odd we have a manager whose a forward but he signs competitive defenders and midfielders but not forwards

Luton dominated last year as they had big scoring forwards

Not the best game and I guess if you don’t win the game then don’t lose it which is probably the best way to sum it up.
Another point and we move on to Bristol Rovers on Saturday and hopefully get the 3 points.

Would love us to bring a striker in on loan. Someone with a bit of pace and presence. Its where we're really lacking at the moment.

My fear with the lack of squad rotation is that we'll run out of steam in the run in and the squad players to come in will be undercooked in terms of match sharpness, which will end up costing us.

Difficult evening, difficult place to come.
Take the point and move on, still in our hands
