    Great first half performance against a very decent team.

    Bobby superb in holding role.

    Defence much sounder & Steele back & with a good performance. TK only one that needs dropping.

    OK we are lacking pace up front & a creative midfielder, as for me Mellis, Cwyka, McCourt & Perkins are not consistent enough.

    Sure Danny will sort that. Want to see RNL, Digby & Rose given their chance myself & a couple of quality loan players.

    Hopefully Jennings to may show something.

    We didn't capitulate today & I think we deserved at least a point.

    I agree JP and I was encouraged with todays performance. I think there's a lot of talent in the team and have every confidence Danny will sort things out.

    Agree Danny will soon work out the weak points of the squad for me the wing back roles are essential to get and down the pitch with a quality cross. Hopefully January will see an improvement to this area of the team.

    I was encouraged for the most part. We were better organised and actually looked like a team. The managers hand was forced a little in midfield with the suspension of Mellis, the returning from injury of McCourt and the inconsistency of Tompole. I though a draw would have been a fairer result and the only real problem areas were full back and creativity in midfield. I have to say I thought Dawson was very poor on the day.

    I would say that's a accurate assessment.

    I agree. We have to sort this out sharpish because we can't keep on throwing points away like we are.

    I think fatigue set in, in the second half yesterday. We seem to have two sets of players, the ones who have played almost every game this season such as Wiseman, Cranie and Kennedy who were looking very leggy. And the ones who have barely played and are probably lacking a bit of match sharpness such as O'Grady, Hassell and Steele. All in all, we looked very tired in the 2nd half, which is why we seemed incapable of hurting them when they were defending a lead.
