    FINALLY! One of our "plucky" performances actually gets a point, which has been a problem all season!

    Should've won it though, and why did the ref blow the whistle when he did?

    That's a disgraceful bit of timekeeping. Added on plenty of time and lets Arsenal take two set-pieces, then blows up as quickly as possible when you're about to score.
    What a total ****er.

    That's how the big teams get away with it. If Arsenal had had that breakaway the ref would have let it go.
    Scandalous

    Again we waited for the opposition to score before we turned up.
    Apart from 10 -15 minutes in the first half we were magically not as bad as Arsenal.

    So please with the point but, once again, it should have been 3

    I have to agree with the Swans players, whilst rules are rules that is FIRST time I remember a referee blowing full time midway through a valid potentially counter attack. How many times have we seen the referee's wait until a ball is either dead or in the so called "no man's land" 50ft in the air?

    I think JdG could have scored the winner at the end!!!

    Didn't give us a pen when Bony was fouled - homer all the way.

    well it was almost one minute into extra, extra-time. I believe it's a tad arrogant not to be happy for the Draw...

    Wasn't it Clive Thomas who blew the whistle when the ball was mid-air from a corner kick - and the team scored ?

    with all due respect, I find myself disagreeing with more and more of your posts as time goes on. Equality would have meant we would have seen what JdG could have done.

    Didn't Probert ref Newcastle v Palace last Saturday and was hammered by Pulis for allowing Newcastle to continue on in injury time and score at the death?

    Well deserved bit of luck that has been missing in all the other games where we should have got something. Very happy with that display against a top team...

    Disagree strongly there Mikra, he was more than happy to carry on playing for Arsenal when they were attacking, we counterattacked within seconds and he blew up straight away. Hope the club lodge a complaint over that.

    And we've finally managed to get to 30 points. Feeling more optimistic now -I think we're capable of getting up towards the 40 mark which would be well good enough.

    Not true we scored just before the board went up, and restart wasnt until 90:45, so 45 seconds + was expected.
