    Fabulous, I'm loving this.

    We'll have around 5,000 away on a Wednesday night and 40,000 at home on Saturday.

    As yesterday showed support, when things go against you, is what counts ...

    ... any group of supporters can 'sing when you're winning'.

    Exactly - in the bigger scheme of things we've gained another point on likely rivals Boro and Norwich. The others will have off days too.

    It seems like for the first time in quite a while that the fans, coach, team and club are as one together and all pulling in the same direction. The tanker has finally turned and is heading full steam ahead in the right direction!

    Well my take is not the best performance didn't seem to get the attacking energy fast breaks that we have this season so far. That said we could have been ahead Wilson had a great chance first half. Can't complain about the red card but thought the ref was poor. Dug deep after the red card and deserved a point but didn't do enough to earn the win. QPR are a poor team. I'll take the point 10 from 12 with 3 away games is brilliant.. We move onto Preston where we may see the impact of that red card. Jobe will be a massive miss however it's a chance for someone else to shine.

    Away to Preston next, we seem to be having a lot of away games.
    3 away from the next 5 as well.

    Frustrating game yesterday as we just didn't get going. QPR tried to stop us playing and succeeded with the help of the ref - no argument with the red card though. Great to come away with a point and credit to the lads and fans for gritting it out. Excellent work by the defence again and another clean sheet. We really are a tough side.

    Really good news about Rigg just to cap off a hard-earned away draw.

    Coventry look like they have sorted themselves out a bit. They themselves will be a play off candidate imo.

    They made a lot of backroom changes in the summer. Not all were to Robins liking I believe. His long time number 2 went. The bottom line though is he is still a very good coach and he has a very good set of players at this level. Dangerous in my opinion.

    10 points from the last 4 games, 3 of them away from home.
    I would take that all day long.

    That was a good point yesterday.

    Yes, if they had a goal scorer we would have been out of it by halftime

    A point with 10 is a point with 10.

    We need to not ‘expect’ to win these kind of games cos that will bite us on the arse.

    A few players not at the races yesterday, and Rigg was missed more than many thought. The next game is a good chance to get back to winning ways.
    I am sure Reg will address it his way and look forward to it. Personally I would look for more than one change to the starting 11 against Preston .

    Been quiet this season haven’t you? Thought your keyboard was broken!

    Oh that’s right, there’s a negative to whinge about (well, you can make one up from a 0-0 with a red card).

    Real blow losing Bellingham for the next three. Our best, and arguably most important, player in my opinion.

    Particularly going to miss his physicality at Preston and Millwall, actually against Coventry too as they've a pretty big and physical midfield three too.

    Long way to go mate but I get your point. If you reckon he cant be improved upon and are happy with his output fair enough. I'm not,
