    That could so easily have been at least 2-0 a pretty one sided 2nd half

    3rd place at end of December - I’d have taken that at the start of the season

    Well we failed to score, but we’ve been really unlucky in front of goal tonight. Another night, could’ve been 4 or 5..

    But overall, the way we played as a team, we actually looked like a promotion class outfit..

    If Ayews overhead kick had gone in it would have been epic for him.
    And us

    I agree we looked a complete team tonight and created chances whilst once again looking solid at the back. One game away from the halfway mark and I would have bitten your hand off at the start of the season to be 3rd at this point.

    I like Kasey Palmer, but made no impact tonight. Poor in many ways

    Agreed. We deserve to be in the top three. We’re keeping clean sheets, just need to be a bit more ruthless in front of goal and I think we can challenge the top two.

    I’d have snapped your hand off to be third at the end of the year.

    Deserved to win that bloody game , why did he bloody take Lowe off? ...... I hated last few minutes, as I ways frightened they would break away and score. Main thing we did not lose, and clean sheet. Well done Lads.

    Why does Grimes put his hands up in the air before his free kicks which we all know will end up going too far or in to the keepers arm# talking of which theirs played a blinder tonight. Still a point gained on the long road ....

    He wouldn't recognize a good footballer even if Messi stood in front of him

    BBC reporting there were boos and horns outside the stadium before kickoff when players took a knee.
    Sincerely hope it wasn’t actual fans, makes us look like a bunch of muppets after condemning Millwalls behaviour.

    Not really bothered to be honest . At least they're prepared to get off their arses regardless of whether you or I agree .

    There is/was a perfectly good initiative "Kick it out" which was side lined by this taking the knee business .With BLM publicly announcing its aims and links with with marxism. Possibly people find it distasteful and feel it has no part in sport.
