    To be fair his save from Cirkin on the first goal was canny but I don't rate him as a keeper

    no idea, seems to be some silent whistle for them all with 5 minutes left, i know it can be a bit of a wait if you wait till the end but we go there to support them...i have sat and watched some rubbish games but i always waited to applaud them off, they do their best out there.

    Just been having a check and I'm certain that stats sites don't count corners as crosses.

    Forgot to say been to too many games where the resul has changed in the last 5 mins and there’s nothing. There are different rules for goalies[/QUOTE]

    too say something smug said teams only score when teams make mistakes.

    What is amazing in this video to me and gives me the chills is the passion our young lads are showing.
    After years of well paid mercenaries that didn't give a f*ck...you thought these guys had just won the Champions League.
    Also you can see how much the connection with the fans means to them...had to wipe a tear or two after watching that.
    We didn't win tonight against a very good team and there is no shame to that....but we hung in there and never gave up.
    Clearly we are going to be knocking on the door at the end of the season to make sure it will have been a fantastic one.
    Leeds, Burnley, Sheff Utd know now with us.....it's game on now!!

    Thought we deserved the draw. I was very worried mid way through the first half. Their second was more unfortunate than any really bad play by us. Free kick given when it looked soft. Then I'm sure that was a handball in the build up for them. Was a neat finish tho.

    I think one thing I'm starting to worry about is the lack of options on the bench. At first I thought it was a reluctance of use. But now I'm thinking he doesn't trust the players in reserve. Tommy Watson is going to be a good player for us I reckon. Lad looks like he has bags of potential.

    The bench is strong as seen today as we argue who should play

    I agree with Watson and Browne but who else on the bench would honestly make a difference in a big game like that?
