    I can’t see it happening tonight. Would gladly eat humble pie.

    A bit of a theme developing lately, lots of possession, lots of chances, no goals.

    not lots of chances. We’ve created nowt. Having the ball and flicking it to each other than falling over when challenged.

    they sat in in the first half and arguably rode their luck with the pen

    then after half time came to play, we did our regular drop deep and concede possession and it inevitably cost us because one scramble in the box and we’re behind

    squandered too many half chances in the first half and didn’t get a pen, not fast enough to react to their pressure early doors second half and before you know it the games gone

    becoming a bit of a theme

    Haway lads. Just one chance. A point would mask a performance, but Id take it

    Aouchiche wide left is so strange. Mayenda had the fullback on toast, surely you'd put Aouchiche in the 10 behind Connolly and keep Mayenda as the wide threat?

    Their keeper has saved one run of the mill header in 85 minutes.

    It's been absolutely **** and similar to a canny few other games.

    I was worried about being flat tonight after the conditions at the weekend and expected more changes.

    Mepham and Ballard are too similar as I’ve said previously.

    This doesn’t feel like a team who think they can score. Which is weird.

    Yep it is. It's why I think top 6 will be touch and go. As long as we win every other game we will be ok. But top 2 is not a chance for me. Bit too easy to play against.

    How many crosses have we put in and there's been no one there?
    Absolute powder puff upfront.

    Yep makes no sense imo, but then again waiting so long to make subs makes no sense for me either

    Conceded on 63, like for like sub made immediately so assuming that was already planned

    15 minutes later another 2 like for like subs. Really starting to get frustrated by the apparent lack of a plan B.

    Very good chance we drop out of the playoffs in the next couple of weeks which is incredible considering the gap we had at the top!
