    Fair result we kept them down to minimal chances . Well learn a lot from that. I thought our days of suffering self obsessed refs wanting all the attention were over ...obviously not ..whilst Coventry took control and deserved point I think they were assisted by that ref he was awful.,

    Yeah and there’s me thinking the officials would be better in this league. Absolute ****ing mess of a man.

    Coventry are a good side and deserved the point, stop looking for things to blame.

    I'm not I've already said they deserved the point ... stop telling everyone they got it wrong on the ref... he does effect the flow and momentum of a game.

    They were better in the second half after we should have scored more in the first, but I wish that their scum fans would be banned . . . . throwing things, like they did last time, and the time before etc.
    Hoying flares (again), one that hit someone's back, and a broken bottle (which had deliberately been broken before it was thrown, so it was fragmented) that hit the lad in front of me . . . . scum bastards.
    As I say, I hope that some of them got a good hiding afterwards, and that will have happened

    It was a bad one as was the boot in the groin that Batth got earlier on, it seemed to me that particularly in the second half they got every 50/50 decision from the ref, and this encouraged a number of their players to overstep the mark, and they did. Not defending O/9 either he has lost his way of late. Defensive mid field and full back positions are our weakest areas imo

    Clocky mentioned 3 or 4times when we were 1 up that we should have scored a second.
    looks like we're going to need a bit of a cushion to see games out in this league but a draw whilst disappointing is not a disaster. OaU.

    There’s the arsehole there. I’m still foaming over him. Ross Stewart was getting held on and dragged about constantly, got nothing!

    Ref was absolutely shocking.

    Thought we started well but did fade and Coventry really pushed us second half.

    Fair result. We need reinforcements, especially in the middle. Corry Evans doesn't cut the mustard.

    Just wanna say Bullard was class today, what a big step up in quality compared to what we have already in defence.

    He'll have a big future in the game

    I thought he was taking the piss while he was warming up with that band on.

    Every time Stewart had the ball he was being dragged back or held. Officials did nothing to stop it. You could see the goal coming from the start of the second half, they were quick down their right hand side. Thought our midfield couldn't contain them second half at all and maybe decent reinforcements are required there
