We maintained the distance between us and Rotherham and moved one more point clear of Sheff W and QPR, but the gap between us and those above us grew.

Game of two halves, well worth our draw.
Burgzorg so frustrating when he came on, he was supposed to be up front and couldn’t be arsed getting in the box. The one Sorba headed wide… if we had Ward/Harratt/Hudlin on, they’re in the box before Sorba to knock that in. Burgzorg was walking on the edge of the box. Then another one where Sorba put one in the box and Burgzorg was stood next to him 😂😂😂
This set of players do have something about them - feel we need 3 or 4 quality additions in Jan and we’ll be ok. Two strikers, ball playing midfielder and maybe another winger if I’m being greedy.

A draw and a dominant performance against a Southampton side with a squad value of £100m+ vs ours at £4.50 and a bag of Quavers, and shithouse fans are still complaining.
You predicted we'd get dicked 4-0 or 5-0 prior to the game, and still find stuff to whinge about.
Get back to your depressing loveless marriages.

Why is he bringing Koroma off? For pity's sake. He'd got a knock, he was limping.

Burgzorg just strolling about and making no attempt to press when they have the ball 5 yards from him Had to laugh at the final whistle, most of the team worked their bollocks off and Burgzorg was bent over and had his hands on his knees in the centre circle 🤷

Jackson outstanding today btw. Didn’t look out of place on the right, can play off both feet, good to see him playing well.

Can see anything past an absolute bumming from Southampton today. They are very good away from home and we are awful. Please, please, please Town make me eat humble pie. How we are not bottom of the table, I'll never know Enjoy your meal.

I arrived at the stadium expectig a drubbing, and was there out of loyalty and nothing else. As most have said we were dire in the first half and were lucky with them hitting the post etc. However, given the paucity of players available to him, I thought Moore actually selected a squad for the task, I'm no fan of my namesake ( Jackson), but we actually showed some grit, and with some better able players on the pitch we would have been ok. We struggle on till January and hope some signings give us a game to enjoy watching again. I am still not overly optimistic, but todays game has re-enthused me to a small degree. T.T.I.D

Jackson is going to be a class player for us. Him and Headley played very well, we have two real talents on our hands there I think who will only get better.
Thought that was a great point against a very good side. Second half I thought we outplayed them and with better finishing should have won.
I have never known as poor an atmosphere as that in all the years of following town. Start of the second half you could hear a pin drop and the booing at half time was absolutely uncalled for.

Sounds like we played much better in the second half, and credit to the manager and players for that. Sounds like we adopted Warnock's tactics from last season i.e. keeping it tight in the first half and attacking more in the second half. Good result against a team I thought we'd lose to. However, to suggest it was a dominant performance from Town is just bollocks. And the abusive tone of your post is completely unnecessary. You can make your views known without the pointless abuse.

Better performances than that have been booed off over the years.

Points a point... not a great game, not a great performance. Pretty dull allround. If we had lost the forum would have been on meltdown after the first half... a cross that goes in and a bit of breathing space until Tuesday. Why, what's happening on Tuesday?

We were better in the second half no doubt and deserved the draw but we scored from a cross come shot so a little fortunate there and our possession stats were once again really poor. Said we’d lose before a ball was kicked, although not necessarily heavily, so I’m delighted we got the draw. Need to build on this up at Sunderland next week though.

Decent performance.more attacking intent when we did get the ball.and played higher up the pitch second half.not amazing but considering players available can be accepted. Moved the ball much much better and quicker at times and played one pass instead of 2/3 like before. Southampton offered so much space which maybe helped though. Decent like I say especially in the circumstances. Fans booing after a reshuffle due to injury early doors piss poor by the way. Hopefully can build but think be hard grind to jan.

Understand Moore’s decision to shore things up in the 1st half when we were being overrun. Harratt was 2nd best on every occasion against his Centre Half who was built like a mountain., so wasn’t missed in my opinion. Yuta had a great game I thought. Understandable low key atmosphere in the ground until the point we went for it. Proving that if we see positive football there is no finer place to be.

I may have been a bit giddy using the term 'dominant', however, it was surely a well-deserved point. I don't think we're gonna be winning any possession wars any time soon because we're not very good at playing football. Defending in numbers and attacking on the counter is our best chance at getting points, I think DM is realising that now.

Agree, the amount of people around me moaning like fuck about anything they think off. But didn't appreciate anything good we did. Lord Warnock had us playing anti football first halves to keep us in with a chance and then attackng the game second half .......just like today. But somehow he was the miracle worker and Moore is a shit, despite having less players to pick from. Two take aways for me today, he's tightened the defense and we are gradually improving when we have the ball. Those players are playing for him and the club unlike under Fothers

You have go give Moore credit for the fact that we got a point out of a game everyone expected us to lose.
If we had a half decent striker then it could have been three points as Southampton looked like they were trying to gift us a goal. With better decision making and quality in the final third we could have won.
Moore made it clear in the post match presser that he doesn’t want to play that formation but it is the best he can do with the players available.
I’m feeling a bit more positive and if we can get Ward back then we will at least have a striker to play until January.

First half quite unforgettable from Town. Would have been nice to go in 0-0, but that sums us up just now.
Much better second half, and but for more composure we could have taken 3 points.
Teams that like to walk it into the net are vulnerable if you have a go.
A decent point, but shows how we’ve lacked composure for many yrs.

And that game was every bit as good as any under Warnock this season, with a very threadbare team compared to what he had available.
