    He just shouldn’t have been allowed to take another in the same game.

    he will get over it

    Said this on the wrong thread but massive effort by the lads. Yep the penalties were pretty poor but we are proving we deserve to be around the top of this league.

    special mention to the away fans who quite
    Rightly clapped Wilson at the end there. At the end of the day we are supporters not detractors.

    onwards and upwards

    Agreed but that’s not his fault

    Frustrating one. But once again, we have shown we are one of the best. Gutted for Wilson, but shouldn’t have been allowed to take the second pen given the poor quality of his first. I’d have taken a point before the game, so have to settle with it now. More importantly, I am no less optimistic about our chances of automatics after that game. Get Mundle and Watson fit, a couple more additions, and I think we do it.

    Really proud of the performance tonight, gutting about the missed penalties and I worry for Isidors confidence. Isidor needs a goal soon to just put that behind him, hats off for wanting to step up again but we should have done minds games and switched penalty takers right at the end.

    Some OTT comments imo but emotions are running high

    I felt confident tonight and that performance is better than we've played recently

    Le Fee looks a player and once Watson/Mundle are back we will be so dangerous

    Hopefully Mephams injury isn't too bad

    Bench looking stronger, time to strengthen it the window - things looking up

    So proud of the whole team tonight

    Exactly, He should be down the tunnel embarrassed at his selfish attitude. Late pens are all about composure. Isidore is always a 100mp/h pace and power and his penalties reflected how he plays.

    Well I'm chuffed to bits with the point, 2 points were thrown away, but a big lesson learned we need a dedicated penalty taker one who knows where and how to put it . Someone should surely must have researched that goalie

    Really pleased with the performance. Thought they all worked their socks off and we’ve just more than earned a point when it could easily have been a loss.

    Enzo looks quality. Jobe and Neil also both great I thought.

    He should have booked him the first time which stops the antics after that.

    He took his ****ing gloves off, I mean it's ridiculous.

    I don’t agree mate, he should have been booked after the first one and would have been off before the second was taken. There’s ****housery and then there’s foul play. Nearly 6 minutes waste for two pens is outrageous.

    I am pleased with the performance and the point; that’s arguably one of the hardest places to go in the league and they didn’t look like winning for even a minute. It’s a great result

    We won't play teams who defend like that each week and we still made a few good chances!

    Looking good for the rest of the run in imo!

    What a player Le Fee is by the way. He's going to be huge the rest of the way.

    Agree but Ballard should have went!!! I thought barring the first 25mins Burnley were crap and there for the taking. Over to Le Fee or Bellingham for the next penalty.

    Christ what a ****ing horrible end to the game. I thought Wilson would take a good penalty but he just tries to twat it, clearly not something he should be doing again. He had a good game generally but those missed chances...not good.

    Don't mind the keepers bullshit too much, I mean I wasn't enjoying it but it's up to the taker to score.
