David Lloyd by the Jag - They have a partnership with the club apparently.

Great performance without getting the win, how we didn't win that is beyond me.

3 points clear of 8th still and 1 off 5th. We're almost over our tough run and going through a 'bad' patch. Included in that run, in single goal games, we've had some terrible decisions go against us, 2 penalties and a hand ball.

I'm a realist but I've had too many so I'm going out on a limb. I think last game of the season we'll be in the shout for playoffs. They never know they're dead and buried. Things will click again, I'm sure of it.

I had plans this weekend so I wasn't there but I cannot wait for Stoke!

Have faith.

Played well again should have won but any point away from home is good approaching seasons halfway point and win v Stoke will put us in the play-off spots for the second half of the season I’d have eagerly accepted that last August so why not now.

He and O'Hare need to change their boots/studs. Always struggling for balance and slip over when turning at pace.

Reading some of the above, I take it we now have to assess goals and divide them into proper goals and statistical goals?

I assume, for instance, if a ball is passed across the six yard box and a striker just taps it in; we will have to class it only as a statistical goal?

Then again perhaps some posters just over think things - usually just to try and prove their own arguments.

He is our best attacker from deep, is there a lot of difference between wing back, the difference as I see it is he can play in his attacking role call it what you want. He is not as good a full back as Todd Kane who in my opinion is cementing a permanent spot in the first team.
A dilemma for the manager. In my opinion we need another attacking midfielder option. If the answer to that isn’t within then we need to recruit one.

Are you being serious? There is a lot of difference between a wing back and attacking midfield. Based on your logic we could play O’Hare as a wing back. Dabo isn’t good enough on the ball to occupy an attacking midfield role either. You have to be able to see those defence splitting passes, receive the ball on the half turn, play in between the lines and have intelligent movement to create space. There’s a lot more to it that you can’t just stick someone in there and expect them to be anything close to effective. In fact it would more likely derail the entire system we play

Dabo isnt good at close control or on the ball. The idea of him as a playmaker is a joke surely

I don't think there was much unnecessary negativity, other than the person that posted we need to sell Godden really.

It isn't unreasonable to expect more, and even though the late equaliser was great, it should never have come to that in the first place. That's why people are annoyed.

Expect more? We are punching so much above our weight that we are working with a one tenth of our rivals budget and players with league two credentials. We are excelling.

he’s far better than Dabo - Dabo needs a rest from the team he’s very out of sorts

But O’Hare is bullet proof for you.? Dabo probably does need a break but let’s have some balance.

Fulham, WBA, Sheffield United. And on a descending scale to us, Hull, Peterborough, Luton and Blackpool.
But let’s get rid of the manager and our shit players....

He is not a playmaker, but he does have good close control.

Well Robins clearly doesn’t disagree as he has never ever started Dabo as an attacking midfielder. Jesus wept
