Table at start of day... Us - won Preston - lost Swindon - lost Notts County - lost Peterborough - lost Sheff Utd - lost Oldham - lost Ok, MK and Rochdale won, but blimey!

With the other results just about a perfect win to start a hard run. Clean sheet, home crowd sounding great. Hard fought for. As an aside, all three teams we have to play next lost!

JET on, sounds like we are sitting back now and if not exactly hanging on, not far off.

Sounds like we are working hard to close them down. 50/50 really.

Just about to post I thought Oldham were just starting to shade it. Can we, just once, stay ahead!

Elsewhere, Dons 0-1 to Swindon, Notts Co 1-1, Boro 0-1, Rochdale 2-0 Preston, Sheff Utd 0-0. Not to shabby.

Sounds like we have done ok, and unlucky really not to have scored. They have got more in to it, and created the odd chance themselves. Just need a little luck in their box.

Pressing, and we sound unlucky not to have got one in yet. Gone close a few times.

Clearly a tough month. Oddly, however looking less scary than a few week ago. Oldham looking harder, Swindon, Peterboro maybe a little easier? Preston on a great run to. Think I would take seven points.

Would need to check, but pretty sure we have not drawn two in a row before today... As happens, think its a very decent point today, more disappointed with Tuesday in truth.

Another very open game. First time we have dropped points two games in a row, but sounds like a draw was the most we deserved.

Flint saves City again....all them.

More a case of cannot stop conceding when one up...

City under pressure - Flint saves us on line.

Lets hope we can push on today from here. Not sounded great, but equally they seem to have created very little - maybe a half chance off a Fielding spill is all I can recall. Nice boring 2-0 would be exactly what the doctor ordered!

1-0 half time. Not sounding a great game, but at least ahead. Hopefully no repeat of Rochdale or Walsall!

OK,you are just starting to sound like a kiddie WUM. I doubt Bradford will be in the mix, as they only want to seem to play when down. I might be wrong. Time will tell. Your team got what I am sure they will regard as an excellent point. Enjoy it and get to bed. You would not want to be to sleepy for school tomorrow.

Seemed to be Cotts's view. Not sure what to make of when they did eventually come forward, they seemed twice to be able to score fairly quickly. We will have teams at AG who will do exactly that in terms of coming for the draw. The art will be enough times when we do break them down, ensuring we then go on to win.

You will be happier with the point than we are I suspect. Time will tell re the Valley Parade game. Its football, and we all know anything can happen. Unlike you, I cannot predict the future.

Cotts They came for the draw, we were the only team trying to win it. Happier with us in second half. Very windy, and could not get going quick enough. Stayed patient, they got their goals from set plays, bad organisation for their first. Could not get the tempo going. Couple of our players were a little off colour today. Disappointed not to win, as we were the only team trying to win. ------------ May be in our favour that teams sit back, as when they come forward seeking for a gaol when they need to, we do seem a little bit flakey.

Not going to get many clean sheets this year. OK point, but when you go ahead in a frustrating game on the 82min, you want to see it out. On a quick count up, nine of the 15 goals we have conceded have been equalizers. Not sure what that says, other than we are maybe not great at pushing on when ahead, or maybe we are just ahead most of the time! Need our strikers popping a few in now as well. Great start, 14 unbeaten, frustrating today but on to the next one!

Sounded very flat from our perspective, so hopefully that livens it up.

Cunningham on for Bryan.

Seems established in that they are sitting back, but having some chances on the break. We maybe starting to get a little frustrated.

Indeed. Sounds like Agard had a couple of decent chances. Since they scored sounds like they have been happier to sit back, and we have not got our shooting boots on. They opened us up a few times just before and after we scored - we seem not great at controlling a game when we are up. Although this is all from the commentary!
