Another encouraging performance from us and did well to hold our nerve and almost nick it right at the end. Can probably count ourselves lucky with the offside but that evens it out after the absolute joke of a red card.

A good point away from home.  Blatant Red my arse!  Reading this thread after the game makes me understand why I read more and more 80% bollocks on here every day.  Byrne had just ran the length of the pitch and turned around to put a tired attempt at a block in and ended up stepping on his foot, that happens 2 or 3 times in every game, Yellow at worst, but a freekick and a talking to would have done.

Got away with the offside, should have been a goal, but when I watched it live I thought it was offside so can understand why it was given.

Great strike by Pritchard.  1-1, decent point away from home.  Next.

In the modern game it's deemed a reckless challenge...there doesn't have to be intent, and how far he's run etc has no bearing.

Just watched it back & I agree with Karl Robinson, never a Red Card.

He has tried to block the ball an stood on his foot.

It was a less dangerous challenge than that of Chadwick on Pritchard in the first half.

I haven't seen the replay of the foul by Byrne so I won't comment yet....but it looks as if the second goal was onside so .....give and take...

Ref would of sent another off if Robinson hadn't sped out of the dugout to tell the ref no...he seemed determined to fuck it up...compounded by the decision to blow the whistle when we had a corner.

I would of taken a point at 8:30 am this morning so I suppose in a way I'm happy but frustrating because at 11 v 11 I reckon we could of turned them over.

Really enjoyed talk sport lick Robinsons Arse after the game.....fucking clowns.

Attendance: 7,738 not heard how many away fans yet
Although all the seats not in yet that stadium will hold 30,000 so no wonder it sounded like a reserve game

Just got back.

Another good performance, we dominated the game up until the red card. Not a red for me, ref was awful for both teams, ruined what was a good game.

Bryne played well before the red, he is definatley much better on the wing. Kasim was good again and Ranger is looking like a great signing.

Awful atmosphere, such a horrible place to watch football. Town fans were pretty awful as well. Overall, happy with a point after another encouraging performance.

My understanding is referee Stuart Attwell will not be rescinding red card of Nathan Byrne and club are seriously considering an appeal.

If even Karl Robinson didn't even think it was a red card , then it wasn't. End of discussion.

Agree with you. At times as the Sun was beaming through the clouds the atmosphere was like a pre-season friendly.
The problem with Town fans and always has been they spread out all over the place.
