    Well I watched from the balcony this afternoon.
    Shepherd really needs to learn how to avoid giving those fouls away. Correct me if I am wrong but he also has 7 yellows this season. Virtually a card in 30% of his appearances.
    Having had a moan, then that was on of the most exciting 0-0’s I have seen for a long time.

    I can’t say anything about that ref as there isn’t enough words or time how simply bad he was. Absolute disgrace. Not worth wasting time on him and deter away from a hell of a performance from the whole team and management to grind out a point.

    Mellon and Adaramola were brilliant. I was really impressed by both and if this is the Mellon we will see for the rest of the season I’m excited to see him with a full team. Leigh also played well.

    He just needs to learn how to cross the ball.

    Only gripe I would have (not just from today) overall would be apart from Pattison any chance of a shot towards goal seems to be no more than a toepoke ....

    With 11 men we win that, but I think we'll see it as a point gained come May.

    Positive performances from Mellon and Adaramo.

    Well what a match. I am not wasting my words on that apology of a ref.

    Tayo, Mellon, Tommy, SmallWood, Sars. But that is wrong the whole team was brilliant.

    I just can’t praise them all enough.

    Performances like today gives me genuine belief in my team (something that has been missing for many years)
    We seem to have developed a steely determination and desire to get a result.
    Absolutely delighted with what I saw today

    We won’t even bother with him only missing one game.

    I don't think it was clear cut enough to warrant an appeal, albeit a harsh sending off

    Good point and a good performance, even with decisions not going our way our heads never dropped and the lads did themselves proud. Gives me a lot of confidence for the rest of the season.

    If he'd have gone down then maybe one for the ref to make a call on.
    Sarc was going mental at him for not going down.
    Still got a shot off which was woeful.

    The one which boiled me the most was Glennon walking 20 yards to give the lino an earful and point in his face and he didn't even get a talking to never mind the standard yellow card.
