    Think it's what he thinks Rotherham owe him not our side.

    Really enjoyable game, and what a finish.

    Here's to you Mr Ball what a finish, was certain we'd thrown it away.

    Some really good performances but punished for some terrible defending, still thought we were good value for the win. Going forward we actually made some poor final balls and finishing or we could have scored 5 or 6.

    Thought Akpan was top drawer today after one of the worst individual performances I've seen against Southend(didn't see the Burton game)

    We need to cut out the sleepy defending though.

    We deserved the points too. Made it harder than we should, but that's City.

    3 points gained for us tonight against 2 points lost for Oxford and Bristol Rovers. That's also two games on the trot where we have come from behind to earn a point and turned a draw into a last minute win. Seeing how much it meant to the players at the end tonight also gives me hope that they are up for this fight.

    Imagine him upfront for us tonight, we'd have had the game sewn up with half an hour left. Doyle poor tonight, should have had a hat trick.

    Had an excellent game, If we can keep him fit will be an asset in our struggle to gain enough points to avoid the drop

    There was a moment just before he went off where they played a ball through into the six yard box and and his positioning allowed him to make a a great covering tackle. I remember thinking that if Chicksen has played, that would likely have resulted in a goal.

    I do. He's like Joe Hart. Always bouncing about like hes off his tits, waving his arms and punching the air celebrating goals like a fan, but in goalkeeping terms makes very poor decisions. Free kick beats him on his side of the goal, penalty conceeded after he sliced a clearance under no pressure which landed 35 yards from goal and put us straight on back foot which we couldn't recover from.
    I cant remember any game this season when ive thought "O Donnell saved us there"

    In his defence he is only now at full fitness after a series of injuries and has got a game or two under his belt

    It's not just 'tight down there' though. Fleetwood, who are 10 th in the league, are just 8 points away from all those teams that are on 31. Any one of those teams that are 'up there' could find themselves in a league 1 survival battle - certainly if they have a run like Bradford had from December/January last season.

    Thanks banbrotam.

    I was seriously wavering and wondering if my opinion was wrong but then you posted and completely cured my doubts.
