A very good point, and a very entertaining game. Enjoyed that. We could have been 2-3 clear in the 1st half if not for poor defending. I can see Iandolo starting ahead of Reid next week, who was a clear weak link.

Frustrating but a week now to regroup after a real clusterfuck of games. May even have a new body through the door before Morecambe.

What's a little bit worrying is the two sides we have actually won against are in the bottom 4. Hope we can get into the "turning teams over" mode.

Early signs for the season are decent. We have looked like we could have won every game rather than been lucky to get a point. Wellens should/will sort the defence and we will have a good chance of getting out of this shitty division

Should've had that won in the first half. Doyle twice through against the keeper, 2nd one especially he should score but 2 good goals so can't be too critical. We played well again but more dropped points is disappointing. I dunno what the missing piece of the puzzle is, maybe it's just some good fortune. The first 11 is good though, best team we've had for a number of years and great to watch at times.

I never realised just how stressful it is watching on iFollow.
The only problem for us is that to enable us play the entertaining, possession based football we have to sacrifice solid defending - although, saying that, it’s really just concentration.
Sometimes Baudry gives me the screaming ab jabs.

Was Baudry actually offside? He rose above their defender so must have been very close.

It'd be criminal for this team not to go up the way we play at times. Hoping for 2-3 signings before the window closes to help make the bench look better.

Just seen the replay for the red. WTF was he thinking? Completely unnecessary as well.

Not according to Wellens, they've watched the replay and he wasn't apparently. "We'd be top of the league if we had VAR in this league"

One thing missed on iFollow. When Baudry’s goal was chalked off, how did their keeper get the ball in his hands to punt it down the pitch so quickly. Surely there would have been a free kick in their box for the offside.

Would have taken 2-2 before the game. Another unnecessary red for a key player is concerning though, wonder if the players are a bit too fired up? You can see Wellens wears his heart on his sleeve and hope that's being channelled sensibly.
