Pretty scrappy game, Wednesday should be 3 up I it wasn't for Davies and the post. No attacking threat whatsoever from our point of view, their centre halves barely broke sweat. Fletcher winning everything for them. As it stands the Burton game on Tuesday is a huge 6 pointer.
That's what keepers and posts are there for. Their keeper made a decent save from our free kick and Bradshaw really should have got a shot away when clean through on goal.
2nd half much improved, thanks to the changes at half time. We looked more assured in the final third, and the defence looked very solid. A game of two halves really, so a point is the fair result. Still a massive 6 pointer on Tuesday, a game we must not lose. Looking at the table, ideally we need to start picking up points fast to get pull ourselves away and not get dragged into the gap forming between the bottom 4 sides.

Attacking threat will almost certainly be our problem all season or at least until Jan hopefully we can get a decent forward in.
To be honest, I'm not too bothered how well or otherwise we played. The important thing at this stage is we start picking up points away from Oakwell. We really need to be more consistent at home and then if we do get anything on the road, that is a bonus. As some are saying, Burton away is now a key game. If we can get a win there and then beat Birmingham on the 4 th November, that will give us the confidence boost we need.
