    Worry about ourselves rather than a club who’s not even in our division.

    Good game but sooooo frustrating that we missed so many chances. They did as well so I suppose it was a fair result

    Don't be surprised when Jalo and Cosgrove are the starting front 2 next season.

    Absolutely crawling to the play offs. Promotion feels a million miles away, but that’s the only thing that keeps Collins in a job next season for me. This brand of football is just sucking the life from me.

    Enjoyable game but we’re so vulnerable on the counter with our lack of height & pace.

    Can’t fault the effort but frustrating we couldn’t put them away.

    Or could we be crawling out of the playoffs? It feels more likely right now tbh. Lose next 2, which is extremely plausible, and we'll be right up 5h1t creek.

    Got to say Collins really went for it there with the subs, chucking all those defenders on!

    Dunno, we’ll see. I don’t think he’s the man to take us forward, however I don’t think you can sack someone that gets you promoted. As it stands that could still go either way.

    We're likely to scrape 6th, which will give us Bolton or Derby, that's frightening. I guess our performance on Tues will show how we're likely to fare on current form against the top sides in this league.

    The mathematical requirement is now a maximum of 3 points. 2 would potentially leave us on equal points with team with better goal differences, assuming every team maximises their points from here.

    Promotion is a long long way off, we've somehow got to win probably at least 3 games of the next 6 to get promoted (notwithstanding we could squeak through by drawing and winning on penalties twice).

    I can honestly see a scenario where we get 1 more point. Lose next 2, draw at home on last day. Not saying it's gonna happen, but it would not surprise me in the slightest.

    Rather than racing into securing a play-off place, we're moonwalking into it.

    If we get in, I suspect it will be because the other teams dropped points, rather than we got the ones we required to be certain.

    Yeah Brizzle scoring after about 10 minutes of stoppages. Well done Hudds, that cheered me up. :D

    Defensively we are awful. Free headers in the box, standing off players, getting dribbled past as well as other things.

    Weird how emotion works though as because we got the equaliser and finished the game on top, I came away from the ground in a semi upbeat mood.

    Thought Jalo looked off the pace for a lot of the game but after he scored, you could see the confidence in him. Would’ve been fantastic if his effort went in.

    Enjoyable but for the wrong reasons we defend like the keystone cops and barely play with any structure it’s all a bit let’s cross our fingers and hope for the best tactics.

    Not odd really, you’ve explained why anyway. Perhaps they will have shouted congrats in of some sorts.He would’ve understood the reason anyway. Think some folk look for things that are not there
