Red-Robbo Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 I'll always take a point away from home. County were on something of a mini-run, so I'm hardly going to combust over the fact that we held them at theirs. Hope we can push on in the next two games.

reddogkev Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 Is the game finished now? I am pleased with a draw, irrespective of the timing of their goal. Crucial part of today was ensuring County didn't win. Don't forget they've scored 7 in their last 2 matches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bucksred Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 Bringing Elliott on during a game where the ref is card happy is not a wise move. Elliott duely gets in the way, giving the ref a chance to even things up. Fantastic. Another game without a clean sheet, and of missed chances. Move on. We need that winning run to start ASAP though.

Major Isewater Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 I'm sure if SOD was still in charge you would be saying what a wonderful result it was for us today. It's not big and it's not clever. I don't know why you come on here at all to be honest. Just a little thing ,sometimes we see a little red square by our user name ,this means 'like' .I am informing you because i'm sure you never had nor ever will have one.

BITW Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 If he had made no changes and we lost he would be pilloried on here. It sounded like we were being pounded so defensive subs seemed to be the correct thing to do. As I said before, 1-1 is a good result. Not when your ahead for 80 odd minutes. Once again our complete inability to keep a clean sheet bites us in the ass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PFree Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 Looking on the bright side, we'll have the best stadium in league and derby's against the gas to look forward to again.... In the local area, we might well be playing in the league beneath Newport County, quite incredible really...but at least if they stay down, that's another local derby too!

OldlandReddies Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 Lets face it 90% of us would have settled for a point at the beginning of the game. A loss would have been a disaster.

The faith is in short supply when the gaffer is changed far too often.

havanatopia Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 I just cannot believe our decline its just crazy Oh I can. It was written, probably not when GJ parted company with the club but probably when Millen was put in charge after the Copout and around the time SL sailed into exile; that was like going from the proverbial sublime to the ridiculous in 1 day. Those 24 hours, when you now look back, defined and commenced this clubs subsequent few years of inexorable decline. But I am always the optimist and I have to believe that, this time, we have now, today, reached the bottom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
