Oh, and Oxford lost 4-0 today.
It's looking increasingly likely that we'll be playing them next season. *touches wood*

At a services somewhere near Manchester. Haven't read back.
We were pretty shit for the entirety of the game, didn't deserve to win but they were pretty shite as well.
Decent enough point considering the other results. Big game on Tuesday

Just got home, what a dreadful game of football. Not sure what was going on with our midfield.
But a point is a point.

Annoying that result would look a whole lot better if Exeter hadn't (again) scored a late winner, but on balance it's a point away from home and 1/3 of a Williams Win. Win our home games and pick up points away and we're up. That'll do me. Bear in mind the chasing pack will drop points too, as Plymouth, Northampton and Cheltenham did today.

Too many attacking players up front for me. Drop one and put in Lyden. Midfield was bypassed too often today. Nice position to be in but cant shoehorn them all in.

Kneejerk overreaction of the day goes to everyone's favourite Cheltenham fan for saying that Benda now has to be dropped in favour of McCormick

WTF is going on with our goal celebration? Looked like they were doing rhino impressions?

Freeze it as the cross comes in, Benda has his shirt pulled back as he’s about to come for the ball, absolute blatant foul.

Yep, but you still play to the whistle though

Indeed, it would go up to the strikers and literally nothing was coming from behind to support them.

Sounds like a point was all we deserved.
Would have been a good set of results without the 97th min Crewe winner. As it was still not too bad. I think that at the end of season that will be 1 point won rather than 2 points dropped.
Get through Northampton (i.e. win or draw) and we are looking good. And a loss not a disaster.
We are 6-4 to win league but 1-6 to get promotion which seems about right. Easy to see how one or even two teams might overhaul us but not three.
Obviously not there yet but plenty of reasons to be confident.
