Hopefully just a dip in form for our attack - we don't seem to be as dangerous as we were 5 games ago. Clean sheet is promising though... Although only just it sounded like.

I'd give lameiras more game time as he seems to be the guy to produce defence splitting passes.

Good point at a difficult place to go at this level, well done City.

Jammy Gills do it again in the 92nd minute! And they had 10 men!

Swindon must be there for the taking.. Let's just hope the chairman stays in charge until Saturday!

Win our game in hand and we still won't be in the top two. Need to start winning these tight games. Desperately need a win against struggling Swindon next.

Gazolba · Oct 20, 2015

Good point in the circumstances. But sooner or later we need to start winning. Hopefully Joe Cole blew most of the cobwebs off.

SkyBlue_Bear83 · Oct 20, 2015

8 points from last 4 games, good to put together another run.

Huckerby · Oct 20, 2015

Hope Gillingham and Walsall don't pull away at the top

Its only two matches since we won a game

covcity4life · Oct 20, 2015

Gills win annoying but still way to early to be saying we need to desperatley win our next game.

Although I do think we will win actually but a draw would still be ok

skyblue025 · Oct 20, 2015

Bit of an anti-climax after all the Joe Cole hype. Still a point is a point. Need to win saturday now.

Paxman II · Oct 20, 2015

is that 5 clean sheets in a row for our keeper?
take the draw before we started.
Onwards and upwards my friends. Joe cole settled in and may have had a goal but it bodes well for the next game with him and Fleck

shmmeee · Oct 20, 2015

Decent point in isolation. Trends are worrying, but we have the tools to fix it. Lots of options untried at the moment. I'd like to see Arma go back up front or Tudgay away of we want a target man. I'd play Lameiras over Kent away from home as well.

Overall, considering we had Fleck, Reda and Willis out a good clean sheet and we keep ticking over. Well done RCC as well. Making that jersey his. Also Cole's first game in ages and he's had like one training session so more to come there. Reasons to be cheerful.

Skyblueweeman · Oct 20, 2015

Good that we're keeping the clean sheets. I wonder how many we'd have had with Burge?

As I spent the day convinced we were going to lose given our history at Spotland, I'm happy with a point. Three would have been better but not to be this evening.

Yea people are just desperate to create drama, we have every chance of winning but another point would be ok then going into 2 winnable home matches.

Don't forget Maddison in your list

No ones creating drama mate....as good as we're looking defensively, considering our attaching options we keep bleating about, 2 games without a game could be the start of a worrying trend.

Blackpool was a winnable home game....

RCC Man of the match. He is a revelation. That's 5 appearances and 5 Clean Sheets for him. When was the last time a city keeper had this many clean sheets in a row?

Ranjit Bhurpa · Oct 20, 2015

Good point earned tonight and important that we didn't lose.

4th place with a game in hand, an evolving team without Reda, Fleck, Maddison and Willis with Joe Cole finding his legs in the team. Good enough so far for me.

Yea Blackpool was disappointing, they happen, get over it.

Tonight was a good point

SkyBlue_Bear83 · Oct 20, 2015

I'm guessing the same moaning gits now were those who were losing their shit during the preseason games.

covcity4life · Oct 20, 2015

Blimey guys keep your knickers on

Two nil nils does not mean we are spent as an attacking force!! We are still making chsnces that's what matters

As for top 2. Way too early to be scared about teams pulling away. Burton looked unstoppable just 2 weeks ago. Cov just need to keep doing what we are doing and will be in autos mix.

I'm more worried with sheff utd and wigan than I am gills. Walsall could do well though

Happy with that! Away pt. Another clean sheet despite defensive changes and Rcc looks to be a real asset.

This very exciting season continues

My thoughts too. I'll always be happy with a point away from home and a clean sheet to go with it is a bonus, even if it does also mean that we've struggled in the attacking areas. Shame we couldn't have tested their keeper more. RCC was probably the busier when it came to actually having to do something to prevent a goal.

OBrien had a great game. MOTM for me probably.

Morris, despite me wanting to see more of him, was pretty poor. Can probably count the successful passes e made over the 90 on one hand.

Armstrong is never a right winger. One error we made tonight was starting him here and not changing it. That said, I'm by sure Fortune would have suited being out wide either given that he was rarely in the game despite the ball spending a fair amount of time in their half.

Still, on to Saturday when we beat Swindon!

Exactly this. WM you talk sense mate. No one is creating dramas. We're all pleased as punch we're battling at the business end of the table. A victory against Swindon would be huge I reckon. Especially with the game in hand to come.

I feel that a couple of teams at the top won't be able to sustain the form they've produced so far. We just need to make sure we're in a position to take advantage of any poor form from the others.

SkyBlue_Bear83 · Oct 20, 2015

8 points from last 4 games, 4 unbeaten with 4 consecutive clean sheets. 4th in the league with a game in hand

Things are looking good

SlowerThanPlatt · Oct 20, 2015

That phone in call...

Evo1883 · Oct 20, 2015

Have to be happy with 2 wins and 2 draws in october so far ,picking up points still and not conceding ..goals will come PUSB ..only 2 league games so no panic yet

Just like me Mobray is disappointed we didn't win.

junglej13 · Oct 20, 2015

Would like to see Armstrong back at the tip on Sat at Swindon with Cole, Lameiras and O'Brien behind. Kent and Murphy both very frustrating and may be better as impact subs.

Same as everyone but he's keeping it in perspective

fernandopartridge · Oct 20, 2015

Fair result. Can't argue with another clean sheet. Got to take our chances away from home.

johnwillomagic · Oct 20, 2015

I think Tudguy is being chronically underused at present.......I'm still not convinced by Kent glad he was benched tonight!
Would like Tudguy to start against Swindon.....but doubt he will!

Fortune sounded poor again, hope he doesn't become the managers blindspot.

I'd start either Tudgay or Armstrong at striker next match and bench Fortune.
