I blame Wasps, the change of dressing room and all that branding in the tunnel has put the sensitive dears off.

We got a draw FFS. Top lost against bottom. It's a stupid, weird division.

Which makes a point a little sweeter. Work to be done but on paper, the last few games has seen us get some points when we might least of expected them.

Pub teams? Pressley reckons they have a bigger wage bill than us.

Shocking, we should have the biggest in the league, we should have Messi and Ronaldo playing for us. NOPM though, not giving them a penny just want to have a go about our wage bill

Steven Dobbie must be on a good wage and can only make the bench for them. There just bankrolled by someone who clearly doesn't care about losing money

But he's a striker isn't he? Today's performance suggest their team does not require any strikers!

They didn't need to play one today, we don't keep cleansheets without Reda.

It was fairly dire for 70 minutes yesterday but once we scored, we transformed into a completely different team. 5 more minutes and we would've won it. We actually started using the width of the pitch and Jackson and particularly Maddison made the difference so I will take my hat off to SP for that as I usually slate the shit out of him.

Definitely a case of 2 points dropped but on the upside, that's 4 unbeaten in the league with 'winnable' games coming up (on paper at least). I do feel the play offs are out of reach already but you never know.

The goal we conceded was atrocious. I've just watched it again and there was absolutely zero danger before Webster got involved. Either Haynes or Allsop were ready to collect but perhaps they should've been more vocal.

Aside from that the back four were competent, particularly in the 2nd half where I can't remember Fleetwood troubling us at all. Allsop also made a good save in the 1st half which could've made it two. I think SP may now extend his loan until the end of the season.Pennington and Haynes can cause damage down the flanks too.

I'm still unsure about the centre of midfield. That certainly needs to be one of the main areas of focus in January as does signing up Madine and Martin.

Maddison could potentially be a player who can kick start our season. So much confidence for someone so young. Glad to see Jackson come on and get his goal also.

1st half very poor, much better 2nd though.
Same problem as all season we are a shambles at the back and don't look like scoring.
Cant understand why Madine is on his own up front. No point him winning these headers if no one is alongside to take advantage

If presley doesn't lambast that first half it makes you think we are in trouble

Also let that be mcqoids last gsme and let noble back in the squad.
