That header was too close for comfort but I reckon we should have won that. Shame the pressure didn't convert into goals.

Give me a point before kick off and I'll take it.

Give me a point after the game and I'm disappointed.

Oh, the fickleness of football fans.

BBC Ratings by the fans are very odd imo!

Darren Bent over 7?!?! :shock:

Reading much the better team. Disappointing to get a draw. Would have liked to have seen Kitson on for Lita for 25 mins.

Seol/Hunt good. Shorey brilliant. Ingy totally solid.

Have to question coppells ambition yet again.

Charlton there for the taking tonight and we play a weakened team. Dominate the game and leave doyle and kitson on the bench when it was obvious we weren't going to score with lita and long, his use of subsitutes is worrying. A chance for an extra two points for europe tonight but just like the FA cup game against man united he plays a poor side and there goes a chance of some glory.

I am sure if Long went over then Poll had no choice but to give a pen... I doubt you could see a more dead cert pen. No attempt at the ball, hands on the attacker and deliberate push.

A real shame as we dominated the game and should have got 3 points along with the 1 would should really have picked up Saturday would well have kept us in the European picture.

So if he made the change and got the same outcome as Saturday I think you would have totally crucified him

He was probably in shock that he had been awarded man of the match.

Agree! Sidders won that on reputation.

MOM for me, Ivar for keeping a clean sheet with Bikey next to him...

Exactly, bring back the team that was playing well earlier in the season.

Agree. But I'm dumbfounded as to where he gets this reputation.

I really don't think that Coppell thinks it's a weaker side. That said, it didn't work, whatever he was doing. I've thought that Doyle was progressing nicely into being back and fitter and this was just the type of game that would have done him well. Kitson too as I thought big guys would have had a better chance. So I don't understand why they didn't play. I liked to see Seol back, and at least he showed some ambition and ability to move towards the goal. We have been completely ineffectual anywhere near the box for quite a while now - in terms of scoring, in terms of passing and in terms of what we do from set pieces. We just don't seem to be able to move around anywhere near the goal with anything even near fluidity.

We dominated a team with Seol gaining confidence, Long getting another start under his belt, and Bikey getting a chance to prove himself (which he didn't!)

If all is going well, why upset the rhythm of the match?!

Becuase we had a better chance of winning it with doyle up front instead of long? Who is average at best at the moment.
