    Tell you what lads and lasses... You will not see a gooder goal than the one we scored all season

    Absolute car crash defensively, this side.

    We've looked brighter than normal going forward and Clarke looks like he can make things happen. But you cant be as bad as we are at the back and expect to take points.

    Our Keeper is poor too. Donaldson runs like he is in quicksand.

    not given up hope but we are too soft.

    Such a shame to be behind because there’s been some good stuff , let down by awful defending.

    It's like a Sunday morning pub team. Clueless defending. Formation doesn't work. Saying that we've just equalised. The squad is not good the manager is not good

    What do they practice during the week? They need to put defending on the list...
    Same mistakes week in week out, why don’t we ever learn from our previous mistakes?

    Cooke has been the best of our midfield 3, yet he gets hooked? Watt having a nightmare and Pritchard anonymous

    Good effort there against a good side. We were the better side second half because they kept Randall quiet

    Draw was a fair result. Apart from our woeful defending I enjoyed that.

    He's definitely the answer. It's the question that was wrong.

    He's very confident on the ball for somebody so young and doesn't seem fazed when he gets into positions where defenders don't usually go! But he needs to improve his defending in the box. He allowed Williams to get goalside of him when he missed with that simple header towards the end of the game and then did the same with Randall a couple of minutes later when he thankfully missed the target with his shot. He could do with some coaching from an exerienced defender on his postioning and I don't mean from BRE! Fortunately, he has time on his side at the moment to develop further.

    Second half he held the ball up really well and used his experience to win us free kicks in very good areas. He was excellent second half but because you have preconceived ideas you will never see it

    I think ref saved us going a goal down today O'Donnell kicked the ball out straight to 1 of their attackers who had a clear run on goal and he blew up for an injury to Billy Clarke in midfield. iFollow took their cameras away as soon as the ref blew

    That's what I look for in a striker.

    Can he defend a corner.

    First half French was drawn upfield time and time again with the ball then played in to the space behind him as he struggled to get back, We were lucky we only conceded two in first half, Second half was much better after I suspect Stuart had a word,
    Happened a few times the same with Wood which led to their first goal but he tightened up after, It is one of the weaknesses of playing 3 at the back that teams will try get behind the wing backs which leaves the defence really exposed

    You have just described the way the vast majority of goals are scored, defences not clearing the ball. Like I said nothing lucky about it at all.

    Cheer up it might never happen.

    Will need everybody scoring regularly if our defenders keep making basic schoolboy errors week in week out
