Well, after 89 minutes of hanging on, I'm pretty gutted with that.
I'm sure when tomorrow comes around ill be more than happy with a point.
Thought the players gave it everything, Hogg, Maxwell and Thomas top marks.
Zorg worries me and Naka likes to do some stupid shit.
Looking much better than a month ago though

If Ward had buried that free header right on half time I think we'd have won this game easy. All about moments in a game of football and Wards header either side of the keeper and we're 2 up. A David Wagner moment went a begging.

Positives :
-Maxwell looks the real deal -Kasumu back is huge and has just completed his second 90 minutes in 3 days -Ward back playing again too & generally having stronger options in the first XI and bench -Headley & Sorba quality again, back 3 CBs put in an outstanding defensive display -5 points from 3 games where most would’ve expected 0 -2 winnable home games coming up to get more points on the board -& a week closer to more players being back/January window

All match, the ref has given that foul on Hogg in the middle of the park. Sorry but that’s shite from Hogg. Sometimes he is slow and naive in possession. He’d no need to hold onto it there. Of course they are going to close you down Jonathan….its the 93rd fucking minute. Idiot. Idiot? From one our greatest ever custodians? Any such words towards the complete bias from the ref? I’m not saying Hogg is never at fault mate but that was a foul all day long sorry.

What side are we going to see? 3-0 to the Swans will* mean we really are relegation fodder. A narrow loss or a point will* mean we are becoming more resolute. *will/might. Well.....? Are looking at a resolute side now?

Frustrating not to steal all the points but it would’ve been very lucky. A very tough watch but needs must as far as I’m concerned. Thats 5 points from a very tough run of games and I’m sure once Moore gets some better players we won’t be playing like this.
Their goal came from Hoggs Achilles heel, he is so often robbed of possession like that and has been since before the PL. Hard to be too critical of him though when he’s been our heartbeat the last 10 years.

Need to keep accumulating points.

Frustrating that, but would’ve snapped someone’s hand off for 4 points from them 2 away games. Just need to keep the points ticking over til January. Just hope that doesn’t knock their confidence too much.

What is worrying is that we are relying on other teams to score for us now ! - Danny Ward will be like a new signing when he finishes off his mince pies and makes an appearance ! - a shit one but a new signing all the same You may not be aware of it but Danny Ward DID make an appearance today - floated a header, unmarked, to their goalkeeper... Fuck me - 12k a week to do that - ! - I want a pair of trousers like he wears - they get you a lot of wage for doing fck all apparently

Too many very late goals conceded, fitness? Concentration? resilience ? Tactics? However, a point away is , in truth, very welcome. T.T.I.D A point away from home is good. But conceding late goal indicates a lack of fitness, as scoring late goal like we did with Wagner indicates that the team is fitter than the opposition. Its fake news, people are noticing something that happened and forgetting all the times it didn't. We've scored 4 goals in the last 10mins of games this season, three of which were after 90mins Today was likewise the 4th goal we've conceded in the last 10mins of games this season, and todays was just the second we've let in after 90mins. We've scored almost double the amount of goals in the 2nd half compared to the 1st, and we've conceded about a third more in the first half compared to the second. NOTHNG wrong with fitness in terms of seeing games out, we're just generally a bit rubbish, thats all.

It's a point, would have taken that before kick off. Another good show from Maxwell, and committed performances from everyone, and their keeper managed to finish a crossword and sudoku in the 90 minutes, so well done him. UTT

Very good result, despite the late equaliser. A solid finish to a good week for Town.
I am probably one of biggest advocates of progressive, passing football on here, but our last three managers have all realised that this squad of players simply can't play that way. We can debate the rights and wrongs of how we've ended up with a squad of players who are so technically deficient, but the truth of the matter is this group can only get results by playing the style we are seeing at the moment.
Although the football is pretty dire to watch, I've come to the realisation that this is the best way forward at this point in time.
Probably the only thing worse than watching this Town team playing anti-football is watching them attempting to play actual football!

Some were saying we wouldn't get another point before Christmas. We've got 5 in 3 games and yet the prats are out in force. I accept that it's not pretty but the effort and desire are there and I salute that

Only beaten by a last minute goal in last five games. Football may not be great but we're progressing in the right direction for now.

sorry to be a party pooper, but that was pretty turgid stuff ..hanging on to 1-0 for 93 minutes...our last 5 goals conceded have all come in the dying embers of the 1st or 2nd half...we don't defend with talent, we defend by throwing bodies in and ride our luck...the game was a no contest and a horrible watch. I bloody hope we're going to buy some forward talent in january because we've had about 4 years of watching this desperate stuff...
good point , I accept...but we've missed the chance to move up the table today...
