Not sure it’s on JDS. Their winger is pulled right out wide, if he is closer to him it leaves a massive gap between him and Kitching. LB don’t man mark RW.

The bigger issue is the high line.

Hull there for the taking, lack of a finish cost us there.

Need to be on it Friday.

Just seen the replay, he's more offside than Wright was at Wembley.

Leeds get 2 chalked off for being yards onside yet that one is allowed to stand?

Our finishing was poor, sure. But that’s a quality / composure thing. Our approach play was great and we were pushing hard.

Really wasn't great, I bet if we watched it back and checked how many forward passes Vs backwards passees we did the backward ones would out number the coward ones comftably.

This is a fair point. We were doing this at first in every game under Frank. Wasn’t always a great watch but I liked it!

Well no he wouldn’t have come on eithet
You think sheaf was injured but didn’t get any treatment
Grimes and sheaf and Rudoni were excellent
Mve should have done better with his chances and wright
We should have won but we are 3 points clear with 4 games to play
What are people expecting bloody mad you lot are
Click to expand...

I never said Sheaf was injured, I said he was fucked which he clearly was.
Defending keeping on a player whose just returned from a long term injury and had took a clattering is a strange stance.

If he's out again because we left him on the pitch when he was a liability, that's mad, it's absolutely barking.

Binks for Sheaf on 75 and go 5-4-1 and shut it down (like at Blackburn)

We were better than them but they did keep getting chances

Great shout
I didn’t think we were lacking energy but just to break things up would have probably been good
Just poor to let the guy get a shot off and not block or save it

Could have gone into WBA with the pressure off and teams like Middlesbrough knowing they needed 3 points to keep up. WBA now come knowing they can stifle us and try to catch us on the break, a draw is a good result for them now, and the others will be breathing down our necks.

Because scoring a second kills the game in a way that hanging on defending doesn’t.

Agreed. No issue with the performance other than the inability to actually put the thing in the net.

That would be a common occurrence in football.

I think you’d be surprised if you managed to note how many chances we created / how many shots on target we had in that game…

Played pretty well tonight. Made some many chances, just not clicking but trying to remain optimistic despite the really frustrating equaliser.

Just one of those games where where we were never going to score without a jammy deflection. Same for Hull (who were toothless).

Rudoni quality.

Well we knew we wouldn't do this the easy way. Still completely in our hands. Win the two remaining home games and we'll be fine

Frustrating. Chances enough to bury Hull. But really no excuse for Dasilva to be miles out of position and even worse a feeble attempt to tackle (Bidwell would have slid in easily) and then keeper beaten at his near post so easily. Collin's has cost us now and Wilson I hope is fit.
A real annoyance. 2 points dropped.

He was the one driving us forward
That’s how you get fit
He’s the captain
Why take him off

Yep. It’s exactly that. Don’t mind criticism, but when people try and say it’s about effort or application I think they’re watching something else or just stupid.

You probably are, may as well blame the keeper for theirs as well. Huge deflection.
Click to expand...
Not the deflection part of it. Some keepers save with the trailing leg, some don't.

Starting position.

Higher up - sweeps up and clears. No reason for him not to be able to do that.
(As with Dasilva) He wasn't awake - anticipating a long ball.
The ball bounced on the corner of the D and 18yard box
