Great second half

Grimmer excellent
Thomas excellent
Hyam excellent
Willis excellent
Baykiss excellent

Second half we were good without scoring

Really? People get dazzled by bayliss runs but in reality he wastes it.

When's the Robins out shite due? We were the better side we just need to make better decisions. Played some lovely football at times.

It all very lovely but doesn't go anywhere. We don't create much.

Not sure why you think Robins should be anywhere near going.

Andy whing “a really good and pleasing performance” .

Maybe he was just talking about his own commentary.

 

[Paxman II]

Feels like a win. We were the better side overall though they had the better chances to score. A fair result and a sign that we are not far off. They are a good outfit but I did not see much of that particularly. Has to be said we gifted their goal. Our passing was somewhat frustrating at times. Grimmer did well enough but still think Sterling would give us more. Shooting practice would be a good idea.

 

[Nick]

Bayliss awful that’s just insane

What did he do? A few turns then greedy awful mishit shots

He could have played about 2 people in at the end.

You will be pleased to know I agree with him

 

[Johhny Blue]

Yesssss Chaplin!!!!

But still unhappy lol

Two oxymoronic statements in 1 game

It really doesn't feel like a win

Not at all. Mentioned final decision lacking. But that doesn't mean you discount his lazy runs. Don't underestimate how his gallop move us up the pitch almost nfl like

 

[usskyblue]

I doubt you can afford where I sit

On Stuart Linnell’s lap ?

 

[stupot07]

Great to get an equaliser, but not a good performance.

Hahahahaha Baka and Chaplin combining to score whilst JCH nowhere to be seen

Would like to give them a run together. We're going to struggle for a top 6 with JCH+Chaplin.

What does he know more than Grendel or nick or mark

I was really encouraged

 

[Esoterica]

Injury to Jones came at a bad time for the momentum of the game. We were all over them at that point and it just took the sting out of our play and Peterborough regrouped after that.

 

[Johhny Blue]

Indeed.

You see 'oh my word, Burge' and 'Burge FFS' and people are going to think he's either let a soft goal in or given away a pen'.

Doesn't go anywhere? All that was missing was a shot or better decision time after time, we cut through them a few times with good football. We overplay a bit tbh.
We ain't going to create gilt edged chance after chance, nobody does apart from in the imagination of people on here.

 

[mark82]

He was pretty good tbh, really linked the play well and involved in a lot of our better football

Thought Chaplin had a poor game personally. Mostly because he constantly had 3 or 4 defenders around him though. Obviously scored though so that counts for a lot. Thomas would be my MOTM.

 

[clint van damme]

I love Doyle but that's twice in recent weeks he's cost us a goal with his poor passing and his performance last week was poor.
Let's not tarnish his legacy MR, time to look at changing it in centre mid.

Great to get an equaliser, but not a good performance.

What was wrong with the performance apart from a bit of composure in the final 3rd?

They defended very well but we were very wasteful.

 

[Paxman II]

Brown was MOTM

And then puts pressure on us if he loses it.

You couldn't see how Chaplin dropped off into the gap and got us on the ball, or how he collected two balls from corners and set up Thomas on the counter? Did you watch the match?

 

[Nick]

He was excellent second half

In what way?

 

[ccfcway]

This is embarrassing

At no point was today embarrassing. Bizarre comment considering what we have been through in past few years

Broke up play good passing and covering.

 

[NortonSkyBlue]

Two good draws where we have turned a defeat in to a point at home. Nothing to be ashamed of tonight.

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

In what way?

His running at pace and dribbling was magnificent at times

It was great up until the final third. We miss a natural goalscorer. I'm not sure if it's players not being in the right position or final balls that are poor but there is something that needs fixing there. We could have torn them apart, we had so much pressure but zero cutting edge. We miss a clinical striker, Chaplin needs time still and we don't seem to want to try anyone else .

Our shooting was. Especially when I posted that.

Maybe he meant the thread

Like I said, dazzled by it. Constant wrong decisions

Too greedy

 

[Magwitch]

In the end and under the circumstances we have to be happy with 1-1, should have won had the better of one of the fancied teams and kept our heads up when it looked we might succumb to a sucker goal. In the top 6 for a day but have proved we can get there atleast, not half way through the season yet, we will get better.

Yeah agree, I think it was Brown put a great ball in near the end right on the line of the 6 yard box in the middle of the goal, not one of our 3 players in the box anticipated it
