    Doesn’t look like many.

    Stream has died. Better side without looking brilliant and poor finishing costing us. Referee blowing for everything which isn’t helping the game.

    Listening to the commentary it sounds like 2 points dropped against a very poor Brum but it is an away point and a clean sheet so maybe we're making progress

    There was no foul, not that it mattered. Complete guess by the ref.

    Much the better side. We won’t play a worse team but didn’t really test Camp despite reasonable chances.

    It’s a point. Clean sheet. Away.
    Team unbeaten in 3 games. Slow progress being made. All positives.
    Still a way to go, just need to win a couple of games now as it doesn’t take much to move up a tight league.

    A draw away from home. I’ll take that.

    Unbeaten in 3 matches...got to be an improvement. But still a long way to go.
    And another clean sheet for Lumley..
    Better than it might have been

    At least it arrests the run of away defeats, which is a positive. We also had 60% of possession, 12 shots of which 5 were on target to their 5 and 1 and another clean sheet for Lumley which will do him and the defence a world of good.

    Given our record and start to the season, it’s a decent result, well done.

    Have to confess that I feel pretty detached from this team and the club at the moment. Getting stick from the Fox for not going today as it’s relatively close. I thought McClaren would be an upgrade on Holloway, and he still might prove to be, but I don’t like his manner, and the loan additions, while they might help us achieve the pinnacle of mid table obscurity, really don’t make me warm to the team. I’d rather watch us struggle with our own youngsters than do slightly better with other clubs’ unwanted and unloved. Still, beggars, choosers etc.

    I think the young players will come on better in a team holding its own. The bit of experience takes the pressure off them and hopefully they will have progressed sufficiently to not require so many loan players next season.

    Agreed, but then again I'd rather watch the loanees in mid table than our youngsters in league 1.

    4 points from our last two games going into the International break is good enough considering our start to the season.

    Still don't like looking at the league table mind.

    Sums up my thoughts exactly

    I don't feel like SM is building anything other than mere survival, which i expected of Holloway but SM was sold to us as an improvement which i feel isn't going to happen
