60% posession, 9 attempts on target, 10 corners, hit the post, the bar and had a shot cleared off the line.

after a mad five minutes at the start of the second half, we took total control of the game.

No matter how well we played it's not good enough if we can't score and leave it to the last minute to get a goal.

We put it in the air too much, and Exeter are very good in the air.  What I missed was some real pace upfront.  Someone who could run at them with the ball and draw the inevitable fouls in.

I thought we were really good. Credit to Exeter too, lots of character and a bit of luck needed to keep the ball out like that.

We're in the Top 6 and it's not a fluke - this is a cracking campaign. The choice XI are getting tired so it's up to Wilson to keep them going.

We dominated no doubt but we should be beating teams like this in all honesty, Like saturday we had a lot of possesion, Lots of chances but lack of finishing.

Still have a feeling it will go to the last day, why on earth give up now on automatic!? Who thought Millwall would have drew with Brentford a few weeks ago???

Hopefully neither them or Leeds win tomorrow, but i'm hopeful Huddersfield do us a favour on Friday.

Unless Leeds and Millwall both lose tomorrow then it's play off's for us.

It was dissapointing not to win but in the circumstances it was good to get a point. We could not break them down and to be fair to them, they defended well. We cant seen to put in a performance in front of the cameras and not being able to come from behind is concerning espescially for the play-offs, where it could be essential. As soon as Ferry had that one cleared off the line then you knew it was going to be one of those nights!

Despite that, if Leeds and Millwall both lose tomorrow, then we are still in stricking distance of 2nd place as we would be level with Leeds and 1 behind Millwall.

Dissapointing draw but tomorrow is now very important for us.

Sorry but that wasn't good enough in my opinion, Yet again we let ourselves down on tv.

what a load of bollocks, we have had 17 attempts on goal with more than half on target.

Their keeper & defence played well & they have scored with their only shot on target (albeit a very good finish).

If you think that was a poor performance you need to go back to supporting Man Ure.

I never said it was a poor performance, We dominated but as i said it's no good if you don't take your chances.

Absolutely - they defended like their lives depended on it. Hope they stay up - at least they try to play football, which is more than you can say for the likes of Colchester.

Fair enough though. Poor result, good performance. Think most people would in agreement with that.

Tisdale got his tactics spot on to be fair, but luck more than played it's part.
