    The biggest thing for me was that after conceding such a ludicrous we could have collapsed. We very nearly did, but we held firm, came out the other side and started playing again. There were a lot of very pleasing individual displays as well.

    George Moncur - gave us something extra and different when he came on. I'm really hoping for him to start fulfilling his undoubted potential soon.

    Adam Hammill - he's often flattered to deceive this season, but yesterday was a vintage display from Adam. Not just for his skill, but his passion and workrate were unreal. Let's hope he can finish the season well, and take it on into next year.

    Josh Scowen - will be nearly as big a loss as Hourihane if he goes. Should be offered as good a new deal as possible within our wage structure. Whether it will be good enough - let's see.

    Sady Janko - looked very assured at the back and exciting going forwards. Any possibility of keeping him should be explored.

    Thought Hammill had a poor first half. Best moves broke down when he got involved. Had a better 2nd half but was in no way MOM. Macca for me and that was before the goal.
    Janko also struggled early on in first half (not surprising) but grew into the game and became influential.
    Moncur looked good when he came on.

    Hammil was kicked up in the air six times in the first twenty minutes.

    Hamill has exceptional skills when he is in top form thought it was very encouraging when we dominated the second half with a high tempo although the equaliser was late i felt it had to come.

    Hammill was great yesterday, barring his free kicks. That bloke gives 100% every game.

    Thought Josh had one of his best games in ages too, shame he had to be moved to full back.

    I'd have probably given MOM to Matty James, that guy is class.

    I can't think of many occasions where we've collapsed this season. Maybe Fulham at home?
    Didn't go to Brighton, but we were apparently well beaten. We wobbled for 10-15 minutes & then formation
    was changed & we stepped back up. I can see why Hecky tried the formation, given the plethora of attacking midfielders & shortage of strikers. If we hadn't had the howler from the 'keeper & we'd have won in injury time people would have been talking tactical masterstroke,
    for nullifying their attacking threat for 70 mins & then going 4-4-2 & hitting the cnuts with a killer punch.
