If Slade had been allowed to persist with his preferred midfield pairing we would have definitely lost.

Either way crap result and serious injury so a bad day all round.

Shame we couldn't manage a winner, sounded better on the radio and a win would've given us 7 points from the last 12 available, fine margins. When we look back at the season I think the lack of goals in the team has been the killer.

Not been favoured has he.... his trophy games he's played his performances in that you'd not pick him really. He was terrible against Brighton u23 when I seen him.
Put down a good marker today tho so hopefully showed himself in a better light to bring him into the thinking.
It's what the team needs tho players taking there chances when given them

Much better midfield performance today. Shows what can be done when you play two midfielders who know their way around the pitch. Then again we only seen them both through late illness and serious injured so I'm still not anywhere near thinking Slade is the right man to take us forward

Tested their keeper more than we have of late, but every save he made, he was expected to make. The only difference in him making them and him being expected to make them was his choice to parry everything and we didn't capitalise on that.

Almost lost because of a dodgy penalty call (would like to see it again).

Shame we couldn't do it for Andy, although we should want to do it just for the points and not wanting to do it for a player who now finds himself in an emergency department at a local hospital!

Oh, Andy Rose back in the ground. That seems a quick change of events considering how severe it looked?

Good if he is, but since he was taken away by a ambulance I'd be surprised if he was discharged so quick?

We didn't need this one, we needed the previous three.
I doubt whether many members of this team will be here next season.
I suspect it will be a whole new squad.

He probably found out he would have to pay for a taxi back if he missed the team bus.

No it isn't. We're very likely to go down but a win would make a big difference if we didn't.

I think with how serious it looked his season will be over, even if he has somehow made his way back to the ground (find that surprising )

Lol. First game we haven't scored in 7 isn't it?

We haven't played long ball tactics for weeks. I'm not convinced we ever did - the full backs just released the ball quicker.

I wouldn't worry about Wembley - I'm sure the players will be up for that one.

Slade:

Don't know how Rose is - waiting medical reports

Missing some equipment (that worrying?)

Out cold at one stage

Speedy recovery hopefully

He's been back but not in the training room

Got a push and clashed with own player, caught on skull

Pleased with a clean sheet

Can't build without clean sheets

Created opportunities

Great saves by their keeper

Had to settle for a draw

Never give up; have to keep going

Sometimes we do it for 45 mins or pockets. Pretty much whole of game had a decent momentum

Final decision let us down

Foley had been a little bit tight with hamstring, felt it warming up so made the change

Had the midfielders here to fill in

Bigi and Stevenson did well

Did work Friday so knew what was required

Out in terrific performances

Begs the question why Bigi hadn't appeared much before now

Asking him to play a different position

Away from home suits us

Not taking away from terrific performance by both

DKE especially is tenacious

First 10 mins we're getting over run

Ryan came out on top

Supporters absolutely great / terrific today

Huge task ahead. Important that while we can, we continue to try
