Overheard sumone say ....we are winning 0-0

We havnt forced Rovers keeper to do anything. Reds giving ball away too much. Morris mon already by million miles. Ref and west stand lino dire boo'd and abused off at halftime. We are offering nothing upfront and look nervous defending. Rovers players diving no. Nine for them is a *beep*

F/T 0-0 sounded a good 2nd half effort on Player

Rode our luck heavily in the first half, however second we gave it a real good go and had a number of very good chances to win it. Was an enjoyable match and and excellent result.

Great performance, we could have easily won, had some great chances, if the final ball was better it would be three and not one. Hopefully we can carry this on to Tuesday. Proud of the guys today.

If cox and enzio keep their places on Tuesday I will be shocked. Neither of them offer anything going forward. Cox has been a such a disappointing signing. Lelant was a liability as well today, the amount of times he gave the ball away was poor.
Slightly better second half and had a few decent chances but never really looked like winning.

A draw against top of the table - I'll settle for that

Well I didn't expect anything today so a point is a bonus.
Roll on Tuesday, we get another point and I would be really happy.

Excellent draw against a pretty good team. We need to play at that tempo every game to secure mid table obscurity.

Onto Pompey who will give us another enormous battle. The boys will deserve their day off next Wednesday. ..

Enjoyed that..both teams had chances....probably some of the worse referee decisions in years, incompetent would be kind
