I'm happy with that. Nice to get a point after being behind for so long.

And as an added bonus had money on Accrington to win at 2/1 and took the draw when we were losing at 5/2.

I would have taken the draw at the start of the game, So over all happyish.


We need to make changes earlier on. We have been saying this all season and it is needed even more now !

Reid needs to start imo. He has changed the game each time he has come on.

I'm afraid I don't share the enthusiasm for the play offs that others seem to have, it's like some forget 3 out of the 4 don't go up sometimes.
But we have hit form at the right time. And now we have just played about our hardest game we had left as they are strong at home and got a point.

For once it is the other sides faltering at the end of the season. If we don't make the top 3 we should start the playoffs as favourites

While I agree that we've hit form at the right time, to me the play offs is nothing but a lottery.

We must win Monday to stay with Wycombe. My worry is Luton's form dropping giving a look in to Wycombe. if Luton fall to 3rd we would need an extra couple of points to overcome them where as Wycombe is entirely possible if we more than match them on the run in. So we need Luton to start winning!

Momentum. While I would have liked a better performance and a win, today's point is superb in the context of extending the unbeaten run against a difficult opponent in shit conditions, maintaining belief in the players and not needing to pick the players up for Monday. By the time even more teams in the mix drop points on Monday and we've hammered Yeovil, it will look like a very decent point.

Great point today, win would of been nicer, still better than losing tho. Yeovil will be a tough match, they didnt play today so will be much fresher.
Always confident of an auto spot, still there to be taken i think.

It IS a very decent point.

I am very happy this evening.

The other CCFC - gotta hand it to Warnock, everywhere he goes he gets them playing above themselves. I called for him a season or so ago. The man's a genius.

I think 3rd will be between us and Exeter now.

You do know they lost today? They've been far too inconsistent of late. A win v Yeovil and I think we'll move into 4th.

I'm happy with a draw, especially considering that we went 1-0 down and Newport's home record. But, we can't perform poorly in the first half like that against Notts County.

That'll do, a point from behind in horrible conditions. Needs a win on Monday to follow it up.

What was with the people watching in the rain in a car park?
