cannot argue with that dv.i like a balance to the side and today it wasn't there.the players spirit and desire got the draw.

Mr. Reeves I thought Nalis was quite solid in there today. He battled well and won alot of headers but you're right I dont think his passing was up to scratch.
Arriba I agree the team didnt seem balanace but I do think having 3 central helped us. When Jerel started warming up every started clapping and I had no idea why....untill I saw Jerel obviously but I was a bit slow in noticing.
We should have bought him on for Cox for the last 30 seconds to waste some time! BEAST!

Boys battled well today and i'd have taken a draw before the game.In terms of quality and free flowing
football it wasn't the best,but we needed a result today above all things.Peacs put a lot of work in,
Morrison did well,unusual for Coxy to miss a chance like that.Leicester looked very solid,with that touch
of quality that you need with Oakley and Fryatt.

2-2 Felt like a win today. Everything was there, a bit nervy but still a well deserved point. Atmosphere was second to none, glad the feel good factor is back at the county ground. Here's to a good night on the lash!!  |

Nalis did battle well first half but faded a bit second, and his passing was poor throughout. Peacock similar, but battled well throughout. Pook was the most creative today, as well as good battling. His pass to put Cox through clear on goal was sublime. Jack Smith made two bad passing mistakes which we got away with, and seemed lacking in confidence, but he livened up late on and attacked well. Mac did very little. Morrison backed away too far allowing their goal, which he tends to do.
Our packed midfield prevented many chances for Leicester, so it worked O.K. in my view.

At the risk of getting all the Byrne haters on my back, that was the best game I've seen in terms of battling performance, atmosphere and sheer nail-biting wowness I've seen since, erm, the last time Byrne was caretaker. Leicester were a very good side but we more than matched them in the early spells, worried heads would go down after Cox's miss, but we kept on fighting, then obviously seemed to be all over when they got their second, but we still kept fighting and what a comeback. Don't think Leicester quite knew what had hit them. Byrne and Williams are a caretaker dream team  |

Dave Byrne sexy football.........................................  Nice to also see the Fittons red and white army chants back a bit. Good to know the fans are behind him despite the Malpas saga. |

The end of the match was good viewing, from a distance of course.

It's not that I'm a Byrne hater... He was brought here to work with the youngsters and was doing a good job and if he was appointed I'd support him 100% but I fancy a fresh start with a new manager not currently in the set-up.
Cracking result and I hope we can build on this.

The Crowd sort of pissed me off today. One stage best in over a year next min after going 2-0 down it got a bit malpas-esque, the goal went in for us and it was back to being great. I know its frustration.. cant expect to really cheer when we were down 2-0 but still... The guy infront of us was a tool. Said bring on a striker then booed as Macca went off for Corr???

I tend to ignore those types of people. Alternatively, you could shoot them. |

You're probably right. Everybody has said that Macca wasn't in the game though?! I guess it's probably that guy being one of those who thinks players like Cox and Macca should play all game every game no matter how crap they've been |
