    Well organised, got your very well deserved point, as for the reds, a bit of a creative spark & we may have just nicked it. Ar well onwards n all that.

    2 teams who still haven't conceded yet. Probably the result that was on the cards.

    Will have to find a way past teams that are well organised and wanting to defend deep.

    Games like that you need real wingers to stretch it and fullbacks willing to overlap.

    We still lack that striker who can create a chance for themselves out of nothing, or has real pace.

    Plenty of room to improve, but a point, a clean sheet and we go again on Tuesday.

    Jeff Stelling on Sky reckons the last time we kept three clean sheets in our first three league games
    was in the year that we were founded re-1887. Is that correct.?

    Made history twice with Wimbledon then. We were also the last team to play at their ground before they went bust.

    They were a better side than we've so far encountered, but we pushed forward and tried to score; they put 11 behind the ball and tried to score on the break.

    I think we will see more of this approach this season at Oakwell.

    Exactly as I saw it mate. For 20 mins we looked like we might steam roller them. After that they were good value for a point.

    We can expect more of the same, most home games. We need a more coherent plan b.

    We were also the first team to play a league match against their alter ego, AKA MK Dons, drew that also :rolleyes:

    Who is their manager? He had them set up perfectly to match us and if they can get a good striker then they’ll start moving the league.

    They reminded me of the old Wimbledon. A team of spoilers. I thought the ref let them get away with far too much giving fouls against us when they were doing the fouling. How the Wimbledon donkey with 18 on his back didn't get booked is beyond me. He was all arms and elbows.

    Decent side. They won't concede many this season, how they do will depend on how many games they can nick 1-0 rather than drawing 0-0

    The thing is, Hanson played exactly how Moore needs to play in matches such as these with very little quality on show. He needs to do a bit more of the ugly stuff for me although Moore is a much better all round player. As for Wimbledon, they came for a point and got one so fair play to them.
