A point gained after going behind but a game that merely highlights the weaknesses in the squad.

Have we won after going behind?
Are we still creating half chances but then expect the forwards to be scoring them?
Do we have enough goals from midfield?
Are both FBs effective enough going forward?
Do we have a decent winger?

I still think a CM, CF and wide player to be title contenders in the run in.
Review the loan situation for Jan and also look at players that are just squad fillers at the moment and see what we can ship out.

Not losing away is a positive and there are plenty of twists and turns to come starting next week.

If we won all all home games and drew the away games would we go up?

I would be interested to know how many teams have won the league without winning away from home?

If we see ourselves as champions then any time we dont win is bad.

If we win next Saturday it'll be a good point. But 42 points after 20 games you can't moan. What's the highest points total we've had in this league after 20 games, anyone know?

Point gained for me. That doesn't mean I'm happy but by the sound of it, they are the ones that dropped two points as we didn't deserve anything.

Not the worst result in the world but it makes it more important to win on Saturday.

Wasn't there so will happily be guided by those who were.
Listened to whole match on radio.
Sounded like we bossed the majority of the game especially first half but same old problem - we need to convert superiority into goals.
Chesterfield was the same - we don't often score more than one goal especially away from home - come April dropping 4 points at Chesterfield & Maidstone will make all the difference - a ruthless streak is required.
Not sure what to make of the team selection - thought Beavon & Holroyd looked good together alongside Rutherford but then team selection changed again today - Holroyd not in the squad and Beavon introduced as a sub in the dying embers of the game - thankfully Walker knows where the net is.

A tough week coming up starting with Orient, then Barrow followed by Newport in the cup - perhaps a reason for squad rotation.
