Can’t see anything other than a positive at the moment. They will know they were the better team. Created more chances than a Championship team. The fact we missed opportunities is nothing new for the past few seasons. They will still perform to the same level miss sitters, dominate games, entertain us and I still believe get sufficient points for a minimum of play offs.
They already are even though they’re not!I hope you're right, I've just got this niggling feeling that late goals could become a thing.
ffs You mean like going unbeaten for ages and rarely losing has become a "thing"?I hope you're right, I've just got this niggling feeling that late goals could become a thing.

Lets set the record straight here. Here's all the points we've gained & lost in the last few mins
Portsmouth- gained 1 point
Oxford- both scored in the last few mins- 0 points
Blackpool- gained 2 points
Wimbledon- gained 2 points
Doncaster- gained 1 point
Peterborough- both scored in the last few mins- 0 points
Sunderland- lost 2 points
Shrewsbury- lost 2 points
Thats +2 points so far coming from last gasp goals excluding games where both teams scored at the death.
This accusation of us being 'chokers' is ridiculous and a sign that there isn't really much else to be complaining about.
You literally might never see a season like this again, as of today its taken over 50 years to wait for a season where we have done as well, and we haven't even played one single game at home. Yet the main topic is your niggling feeling that doom is just around the corner, its all going to go wrong, and something which isn't a problem is actually going to be a huge problem.Where I have accused us of being chokers? Re-read my post. I'm saying that conceding 2 last minute goals in one game might have an adverse affect on their ability to see out results.

Well I have no counterargument to that, I fully get it- but right now we need to put that aside and just enjoy & cheer them to promotion.Trust me, as a Cov fan of 28 years, I will expect the worst until we are mathematically safe.
This could end up going 2 ways. They will either take heart from not losing in normal time twice to a Champ team, or it will exaggerate the seeds of doubt when we are winning by one (which happens often)
Second goal is becoming so important to us.
pch - Friends who support other clubs are just acquaintancesI think we take a massive positive from matching and bettering an established championship side over two games.
Yes the late goals conceded are frustrating but most of my friends who support other clubs think that that sort of thing only ever happens to them.
Mason is not as effective going forward but looked solid defensivelyI thoroughly enjoyed the game last night, Lots of positives ie no silly mistakes, or rash challenges like of late. The only issue I saw was Mason looked very tired in extra time, but not suprising given his lack of game time. The second equaliser from Bela was a sliced cross, so very flukey. Overall not one of the lads let us down!! and walking back to the car amongst the Blues lot (coat tightly done up covering my top), I nearly laughed out loud at how many think they're going to turn Lesta over easily. Deluded wankers

It felt like a win tbf. MR's seems 'happy' about being out because he knows there are 17 games left to define our season and make the headlines.
No distraction, great squad, just need to work on those crosses as a unit.
My fingers are crossed we can do this. It could be us, pompey and Rotherham fighting for top 2 imho. Sunderland may get in that mix. Not easy with 3 'big' clubs fighting it out and a strong Rothethan unit.
But I just think in Walsh,O'Hare, Allen and Kelly we are probably the best footballing team in the division if not the best physical one. That we must learn to deal with and Tuesday will be a test of that, a game we really don't want to lose.
