    All small margins. Cook should have scored four, Smallwood should have let Banks take the free kick, Banks should have been more positive with crossing in the first half, Walker should have pulled the trigger inside the box two or three times

    Yes we should have won the game unusual Cook missing those sort of easy chances for him but neither Derbyshire, Walker or Banks offered anything gaol wise, so once again if Cook fails to score we can only draw or lose.

    I'll give you that at least we tried today, but unfortunately we just weren't at the races. But I'll take you back to the Newport game where you were equally ecstatic with a point, but where for the last quarter of the match we sat on draw and made no effort whatsoever to go after the win. Those are the games that'll come back to haunt us.
    I do think we tried today. I saw no lack of effort or intent and we had more than enough decent chances to win it, but it still doesn't mean a point is a good result

    It’s not the end of the world but our chances of Automatic are getting further away every game and we have to fight to stay in the play off mix.

    People might say we are playing a team fighting to stay in the league but we are fighting to go up.
    It’s a poor result and it can’t be dressed up.

    Don’t win on Monday then all talk of automatic is finished with.

    Unbeaten does not mean anything.
    Example is
    4 games 4 draws = 4 points.
    4 games 2 wins 2 losses = 6 points.
    Wins win promotion not records!!

    An excellent player, Kemp. Exactly the sort we should have been bringing in on loan. I have to say, we've underperformed in loan recruitment, in January especially. I can't believe we couldn't attract a higher calibre of loan player; we were able to offer a platform of testing players in front of large crowds against the pressure of expected promotion and in a playing style that's common in higher leagues. I can't believe we didn't use that to secure loans for a couple of players who wouldn't ordinarily come to L2

    Do Radio Leeds vet their callers so they get the ones who state the absolute bleeding obvious every week?

    Exactly. 2 points dropped. Not losing ground isn't enough, we need to be gaining ground and to do that we need to string wins together and have more goal contributions from players who aren't Andy Cook.

    100% agree. And today we played a team ‘fighting’ who let’s be honest, were poor! Nothing other than 2 points dropped today, don’t know how else it can be dressed.

    No its not a bad result we did enough to win the game and should have done unfortunately football doesn't alway work like that, once again we did not take our chances, so unlike you to put a negative spin on things "Don’t win on Monday then all talk of automatic is finished with" so if we win its still very much on.

    Carlisle and Northampton are the teams we need to overhaul both have difficult run ins actually playing each other, don't write us off yet.

    There is more chance of me winning the lottery than city going up.
    Unless you play Bradford City, we give all the time and space anyone could want.
