    no guarantee we'd have won had he not done that. Especially considering we were on the back foot after our goal

    I'm delighted with a point, we were against the likes of Parker, Cole and Green, and came back from West ham with a point. Kissa did well (apart from the og).

    Bit harsh to blame Kisnorbo when Gradel missed a penalty. True, he had a couple of escapes with holding fouls but it was always going to be a difficult game.

    Good result and on another day it could have gone our way. West Ham were odds on favourites and we at least matched them. More reason for optimism than a week ago.

    Going to be one of the tougher games of the season I would imagine, so really pleased with the result... Now Donny and Ipswich away lets hope for 6 points from those two. MOT

    billy mate, west ham are a quality side and if you honestly think dropping points against them is an issue then you should get your head checked bud! We will be up there

    We didn't drop points. We were never ahead. There's no guarantee we ever would have been ahead. We can only speculate that if we'd kept the pressure up after scoring that we would have gone on to win the game. Due to the quality of West Ham we got stung and stifled after scoring the first and it was only during the last 10 minutes that we were able to pressurise and get a well deserved point.

    To be fair had i been offered a point at 1.15pm i would have taken it...

    We did not fold when we went one nil down....
    Paddy had a off day and he was bloody lucky he did not give a pen away....
    But.. we pulled through and some players had a greta game...
    Paddy has saved us on many occasions and he had a off day....that does not make him ****....

    West Ham had a excellent team today and credit to the team for how they played with tempo and guile and at times we bossed the game...

    Gradel cost us the point as much as Paddy...

    Deserved a win but very happy with the result none the less. If we play like that every week we will be promoted.

    perhaps we deserved one, but it's not really to be expected, draw was a fair result overall. The match stats tell the story better than anything else.

    I think a deserved draw on the balance of things, would have took a point before kick off when you look at their team sheet they are a very good team. Could have been another penalty each, we would have probably missed ours again though ;)

    I would have taken a draw beforehand and I don't think many other teams will manage the same.
