[Liquid Gold]

If Boro came in with £5m for Gyokeres we've got accept, this squad needs strengthening in order to survive

Ha

We looked a mess but take a point.

Bad day at the office. Goden missed a sitter

Sunderland could have had 2 reds and we should have had blatant pen.

 

[SlowerThanPlatt]

Have to be happy with a point after that. Same trends as last season though which we’ll need grow out of to progress any further, soft goal given away and reliance on late ones.

 

[Paul Anthony]

These have gotten away with so much its laughable.

 

[Liquid Gold]

Take that in the end after not turning up at all first half.

Dabo and palmer made a huge difference.

Please don’t sell O’Hare

 

[Sky_Blue_Daz]

Decent point ,

 

[The Philosopher]

Thank fyok for Gyok.

 

[larry_david]

Matthew Godden...

 

[Sick Boy]

We are really poor without CoH - Hamer was very disappointing today.

 

[stupot07]

Much better second half, great finish by Gyokeres.

Ref was an absolute joke, Clarke and Evans both persistently fouling after being booked, and that on Gyokeres was a potential leg breaker should have been a straight red. Stonewall pen not given.

Question marks on Robins, if Dabo was fit, why has he started.

Great goal

Need to find a way to get Dabo fit

 

[Tea & Busquets]

happy to salvage an away point. utter crap the first half from us that being said we deserved to win based on that second. turd refereeing, sunderland bias clear from refs and sky. would like to see Tayo get a run next weekend. Burroughs needs a go at RWB imo. Panzo great game, looks a real coup. Big Dik Vik at it again saving us. Palmer decent. Moore get it together. Not much else to say.

 

[better days]

Decent point and performance all things considered

 

[Jamesimus]

Draw all your away, win all your home - automatic promotion form already

Bad day at the office. Goden missed a sitter

The one at the end was an awful tackle.

 

[Johnnythespider]

Will take the point from that performance, rusty as an old bicycle but we'll get sharper.

 

[SeaSeeEffCee]

Will take a point after that performance, but feels like a game we should have been able to win.

Certainly don’t look like a play-off team in the making based on that 90 minutes. If O’Hare is out for a significant amount of time then we desperately need a replacement on loan.

 

[Chip Batch]

A great goal and not a bad point considering the generally poor performance. Important not to lose.

 

[Johnnythespider]

The one at the end was an awful tackle.

Straight red card

 

[Sick Boy]

A decent point for us in the end but nowhere near good enough - we're crying out for investment.

 

[Theonlywayisskyblue]

Palmer looked good. Panzo quality. What a difference a bit of pace makes.

 

[Kieranp96]

Can't wait for VAR in the championship

 

[skyblueinBaku]

Apparently not a very good performance, but a point away from home is a decent result.

 

[djr8369]

A terrible performance but a decent point.

Onien should face retrospective action for that foul on Vik. Went in to break his leg.

 

[flammablepiss]

No point making excuses, we were dreadful and the subs were way overdue. That said a draw isn't too bad for the first game if the season. Onwards and upwards

 

[no_loyalty]

A very decent point in the end.

 

[shmmeee]

Not too worried. Was their cup final and we mostly looked comfortable. Ineffective without O’Hare but thought Palmer looked like offering something very different. Not trained since O’Hare was injured so you’d expect us to be disjointed. Hopefully we can work out a game plan before next match.

Thought Panzo looked excellent, Sheaf was good, Dabo did well when he came on, Hamer will play a lot better than that. Lots to be positive about. There’d be a bit more if we can bring in a loanee AM though.

 

[Tommo1993]

Hope Dabo stays fit. I’d rather recall Dacosta for that position than play Eccles.

 

[Nick]

We need to keep Kane.

 

[covcity4life]

We missed 3 key positions and got a draw. Hamer was below par too. And godden. We got a draw tho. Im happy

 

[letsallsingtogether]

watching in a bar in majorca should have seen them jump when I shouted goal shit thelife outta them.

 

[Danceswithhorses]

Positives...Gyok (goal and sheer effort) and Panzo (immense...sign him if possible)
Negatives...few others made any decent impact...Godden missed a gilt edged chance. Hamer was poor.
Take the point, as we were fairly mediocre today.

 

[covmark]

With Godden missing a sitter and our second half dominance, feel we could have won that.

Good to see some positive subs, and early enough to make an impact. Dabo looked lively when he came on.

Got to be happy with a point having been poor for so long.

Train all pre-season to play a certain way then scuppered on the eve of the match isn't ideal so credit where it's due for scrapping a result.
