    Probably 2 points dropped today not 1 point won, but we did come back well from 2-0 down, and had we won, we would be sitting joint top with Blackpool.

    Obviously, I'm as gutted as the rest of you that the takeover was not completed and we failed (as expected) to sign anyone in the transfer window whilst other smaller Championship clubs buy Premier standard players. Do we deserve more, of course we do. We can only sit back and wait (and hope) that the takeover happens soon. M.O.T

    Sometimes fancied teams are there for the taking, Wolves were and we took our chance, Blackburn were today but we missed it. I feel pretty sure that a few quality teams in this division will soon start finding their feet and when they do we might be in trouble. I believe Hull, Forest and Brighton have teams better than ourselves, Leicester are playing well against Blackpool and look like winning. I still see us as no better than mid table, this whole T/O lark has thoroughly pissed me off this season, who would have believed 10 weeks ago that we would be in this position still.

    I'd still rather be in the position we are, as we still have hope. This time last year, there was not a chance in Hell that Ken would sell

    We need to take our opportunities to win games like this if we're going to hold on to any slim chance of promotion.

    Very good performance warnock spotted the weak link changed it n we battered them under Grayson we would have rolled over n got spanked, I'm very happy with the performance although diouf could have nicked it :( the ref was absolutely atrocious

    I'll take this compared to the start of last season. 4 points from 3 good teams and Ross didn't get sold.

    We just need some luck with injuries and suspensions and hope we can strengthen in January. And the nasty spitty man has been a bit of a revelation.

    Now, if only I could find a pen to sign that ****ing contract with...<steam>

    Kissa, not sure if you heard Warnock on the wireless. He actually blamed Diouf for their 1st 2 goals - not Pelts.

    Personally, I think Warnock should have spotted this weak link after their 1st goal, not the 2nd. Diouf's lack of pace was shown up dramatically. Warnock should have been alert to this, so IMHO, we should have won.

    Btw, I've seen some bad refsin my time, but this guy took the biscuit.

    On an unrelated subject, Partick Thisle are top of the Scottish 1st Division - 100% record after 4 games. <bubbly><bubbly><bubbly><bubbly><bubbly> Sadly, I know from experience that it'll never last. <steam>
