Yes and unfortunately were refereed by that cunt Kelvin Morton more than once. Good result today - happy with that. First goal we've conceded while Vincent has been on the pitch follwing his injury. |

Just got back, we showed alot of bottle and defended well with some good counter attacking! robson kanu should have scored and we could have conceded more! The town fans were awsome today and we most definitely deserved at least a point. A very enjoyable game!

There are encouraging signs...but the scale of the task is shown by the fact we're now a point better off than in 05/06 after the same number of games...then we took 10 from the next 4, to make it look like we would escape, but of course didn't. We still don't win games....6 in 28, we're going to need probably 7 from 18, so need to improve. |

Unfortunately, you can't base a season on one game....Leicester have recently struggled a bit at home...previous 2 games 0-0...v 10 man Oldham and Brighton....we need to win more games. |

Good performance
Only concern is that we seem to be playing two games a week for the next 5 weeks. Fitness levels will be key in the coming few weeks

To be fair Reg to do that we need to fucking play some. We've only had two games in a month both away at sides in the top 6, both of which we've taken points from. I'll settle for drawing every away game from now until the end of the season and hoping we can pick up wins at home. |

Don't get me wrong, until we pick up some wins we're still in dire trouble. The use of the word 'fantastic' was to signify the fact that I thought we'd lose today  Another tough game next though... Hopefully confidence really is high in the squad. |

Obviously I wasn't at the game but having just read DW's comments on the OS I get a nice warm feeling that we've got a manager who really manages and knows how many beans make 5. Definitely not a one stringed violinist.
Mixed metaphorically speaking, that is.

That was a great day. Superb effort from the fans and a good team performance for a hard earned point. It only feels like it should be shit because we scored first.

Just got back, good match! We didn't sit and defend, we actually went and had a go, which is pleasing! The defence looks much more solid now with players putting their bodies on the line for a change. Wanky had a good game on the right, as did Jack Smith at RB, and Greer and Ifil looked a solid partnership in the middle. Timlin was poor 1st half and slightly better 2nd. Kanu was hot and cold. I thought Paynter didn't have his best game, seemed lethargic but I thought Cox ran his bollocks off for the team today. Brez looks like he is getting back to his best as well, though he still needs to dominate his 6 yard box more.
The Stadium was very impressive, but the home fans were a joke! Quiet as fook until they scored in the 88th minute! They do not deserve a stadium like that!
Well done to the town fans today! Taught the city fans a lesson in how to support your team! Disapointing we didn't hold on for all 3 but happy with the 1. Would defo had taken that this morning, so I came away a happy man!
As somebody has already said, going on that performance, we have no worries as far as relegation goes this season! Just need a run of consistency now!

This of course is an issue...it can be difficult to see in advance, when it might be good or bad to catch a side....namely do they have fitness/suspension problems, is it better to be playing sides sat clear at the top or desperately scraping at the foot of the table. In all my years of following STFC, we've tended to be fairly hopeless at staving off relegation when in a scrap...I can think of maybe 5 examples of success, let's hope this is a 6th. |
