Not a bad performance out there tonight.
Gutted with the ending but overall performance 5 or 6 gears higher than recent games. Made a good sheff United side look average.
What was dunne doing with that header at end.

Agree to a certain extent lads but in fairness to NC I don’t think that would have worked tonight as the ball was down our end virtually the whole second half.
Armstrong would have been totally isolated. I think with the bench we had he made the sensible changes.
Said all night to my mate though we have to her a second and these fuckers don’t stop coming at you.
Gutted but proud.

Great effort by the lads,that performance certainly surprised me,as didn't expect anything from the game. Such a choker to concede so late shame the squad is so thin, as critchley didn't have many options to bring on to see the game out.

Chair when he breaks has to lift his head up and pick passes instead of always trying to do it alone. Should have had a second with his two breaks

if we play like that every game we'll be pushing for the playoffs 100%. we were excellent today and its easily our best performance in 10 or so games.
i'm extremely proud of the team tonight, we battled well and everyone can hold their head high especially kakay who put in his best ever performance for us and is my MOTM. a draw isn't a a fair result and had i been at the game tonight i'd probably be seething but we have to remember who we were playing.
the players will teed up after tonights game especially after the loss to luton. hopefully we can turn a corner!

The likes of Dickie and Dunne are not capable of sitting back and defending a lead.Hoofing the ball out of defence to Dykes and it coming straight for the last 20mins was asking for that type of ending.

Top 10 now is my prediction
Just want more continuity now in performances
Not one good match one bad match
All pretty good would be good
We were far the better team first half
Feel for the players they will be sick
Kakay well done you played well

Didnt play out much from the back tonight
Seny kicking it to the wings

We played really well tonight

I thought Dickie and Dunne were great and for a deflected equaliser saw that out comfortably

This. Richards on for Willock would have let us go 4231, with Tim and Field sitting deep and Chair, Richards and Albert either side of a diamond, forcing them back with the ball, and allowing us to drop back to 451 without the ball. Amos offered nothing, and certainly not possession, which would have won us that game. Grrrrrr. But, hey, I enjoyed the match, which I wasn't expecting to do. And take comfort in the performance overall.

Armstrong should have been on for last 5 or 10 to relieve the pressure and give us a target to clear to would also keep their defenders honest and to play in their own half. Knew the referee would ultimately affect the result and duly obliged. They did nothing special to earn that point and proud that we stood up to them.

Did you think he had a great game? Time added on was quedtionable so much so our coaching team and manager approached him at the end and were booked. Missed numerous fouls for both teams.

It s terrible the way it ended and like everyone else I am gutted but I expected nothing but a beating in this match after the Luton debacle, there were some really encouraging things going on for us especially in the 1st half, hopefully we can add in a few positions of need in this window!

Iroegbunam looks very ordinary in his new deep lying role, great for Villa him learning another role but little benefit to us.
If ever there was a game that would have suited Armstrong coming on for 20mins it was tonight.
I don’t think it was a great performance tonight, we just caught Sheff Utd on an off day.
There’s not too much difference between Shodipo or Roberts, certainly not £4.5m worth.,send him back to dirty Leeds.

I’m not saying Shodipo is the answer, I’m saying Roberts should not be at the club.

Roberts was our best player 2nd half vs Luton. He was fine today. Shodipo has been tried by many managers and has constantly proved he’s not good enough.

What about the fact he instructed 5 mins to be played in injury time yet played 7?
Fucking arsehole.

It’s ok to different opinion but If anyone came out with any semblance of credit from the shit show against Luton it was Shodipo.
It’s a low bar to say Roberts was fine tonight, would prefer to see he had shots on target or provided a chance or 2 for a teamate.
What benefit is there to be had to play Roberts over Richards for the rest of the season?

Shodipo is VERY weak defensively so I understand why he was left out against a top two team.
Unlike others I think Chair had a very good game. He and Willock played nicely together and I also like when he is shooting actively. Many goals are deflected.
