That's the most nervous I've been all season and a point gets us into second spot. A few days now before Coventry so get some rest into those legs and we go again. Vital we didn't lose tonight and were bang on target for promotion....well done lads.

I suppose that'll do won't it, still got a game in hand right? Feels good to be in the automatic spot finally, this squad and manager aren't bottlers and I'm sure they'll push on.
Burton are a good footballing team, we had our chances but didn't take them. At least we didn't lose.
Same for all teams, everyones a Cup Final for top and bottom teams. We have lived with that pressure all season, should work in our favour .
Looking at the stats it was very even in terms of shots, they had one more on target so no complaints. You always want to win but that table looks sexy to me.
Got away with one a little bit tonight. They should be a playoff team they are very decent, as you can see from their results against the better sides. Take the point and move on, no margin for error and now it’s Pompey we need to watch more than Barnsley I think. That might be a very valuable point, could have easily gone the other way. Pompey game is going to be an absolute beast.
Get the likes of Catts, McGeedy and Maguire back to boost the squad and we should hold on to second spot, comfortably, a word chosen without care. .
Its our Centre backs worry me, perhaps get Dunne back in, he's better covering set pieces. Pleased to see Oviedo back.
flanagan was terrible in them 90 mins, mcgeouch was at fault with the first goal fannying about they contrive yet again to balls up when they need to win, they will never ever win 3 home games on the trot the mentality is bad, Blackpool, Accy, Walsall now these, what the hell is wrong with them, if we go up big changes need making.
How is the mentality bad in a team that’s recovered so many points from behind? Won so many late points. The one thing that absolutely isn’t an issue is the mentality of the players.
