Thinking about it, i want to say two minutes, as that is all that was left in the mtach to make good.

Was reading their forum, and did see somebody post "We can't defend set pieces and face a side of hoofball merchants... Great!" In complete fairness I think he was responding to somebody saying their next match was Stevenage, rather than meaning us - I think!

I had a text from a mate at the game at half time saying it was close, other than the score! Will let someone who was there respond, but the games I have seen recently we have resorted to belting it clear now and again, but we have actually tried to play football rather than what I would call long ball.

90:00 +5:44 Goal scored Goal! Goal! Northampton Town 2, AFC Wimbledon 2. Sammy Moore (AFC Wimbledon) right footed shot from the right side of the six yard box to the top right corner. Assisted by Alan Bennett. Sulks...

Suppose we should not get to far ahead of ourselves, two difficult games now, and after Notts win, no one at the bottom is pencilled in yet. Still, a bloody fine result. Two more wins to finish it off please.

In all seriousness, one point at this stage of the season. Three brown 'uns in your shorts time. I actually fancy Pompey right now to go down - who would have thought it!

Northampton 2 Carter 29? (pen), 79? Wimbledon 1 Francomb 14? It really is our night...

I suppose its to much to hope for a last minute winner for Northampton to put the cherry on top!

O M Fing G!!!! Its City mind - would be happier if those three came in the last four minutes.. Surely not even....No - don't even think it!

Definition Disappointed - Bristol City fan after losing a two goal lead in last twenty minutes to only get an away draw, failing to move further away from the drop zone. Gutted - Stevenage fan after losing a two goal lead in last ten minutes to lose at home, and drop in to the bottom four. Lets keep a little perspective!

And we got six at Orient and Peterboro. Ten points from the last five away. Today is a bit of a gutter, as we seemed to be crusing, but has been said, poop happens. Sounds like we started to sit back and invite them on to us, rather than controling the game. Three tricky ones coming up now, would feel much happier with a win against the Vale.

Wolves drew at home to the Shrews same score. Its a sign of not a bad side that when the ball will just not go in, you still keep a clean sheet. Little moan if you like - back line played in poisition and a clean sheet. Coincidence?

Yep, failing a win, 0-0 was in an odd way the next best result. Other results pretty much ok. Point nearer safety, on to the next one.

On way home. Proud. Long time since felt that.

Absolutely correct. The issue has never ever been up front,but the centre of our defense. I do think Flint will be missed if he is out, and El is going to be picked whatever, so it seems.

Not been a hater, but he certainly did go through a fair old dip in form. Last few games there does seem to be some evidence he is getting back to form, and a goal today is real icing on the cake. I am sure every city fan will welcome that.

All things being equal, going Tues as well, not that far from MK. Put ourselves in a position where a couple of decent results now, and we will be able to see the finish line. Why the heck do 4 go down in this league anyway? Seems no great logic behind it.

Stevenage on a charge. Still plenty of games to go, but at the moment looks like Notts and the Shrews, plus any two of the next six. Better odds than we have had for a while. Am I allowed to say a point at boro would be a good one?

Huge result - sounds like a match that explians both why we have been struggling, and why we might just have enough to stay up. Well done the lads, and the fans. Boring stat, but played 12 teams twice now. Same result in nine, and better in three, in all cases turning previous draws in to wins. Just what is needed.

OTIB will be quiet tonight - we won.

Was half listening to it, and pretty sure he said Stevenage had come back to lead 3-2 at Ashton Gate - I did take a double take myself!

Its not the despair that does me - used to that - its the hope!

Result everything today, so happily will take that. Will wait for feedback from those there to see how we played. Did not like the line up at all, but blimey we needed that.

Crewe miss penalty.

Interesting post ID - would happily add Swindon to that. It really did feel we were about to hammer somebody. Just a series of almost laughable mistakes costing us point after point, but we were competitive. Really felt we just needed maybe a little tinkering, some confidence, and heck, a little luck! Equally some poor efforts at home. We then not only decided to bring in a new manager, but it is clear now one with a completly different approach. I had assumed he would bring in some confidence and self belief, a bit of fiddling, and we would be ok. Fact is we are were we are. The only chance we have of staying up is with the current manager, as we are not going to change again this year. Just feels really deppresing right now. With the exception of Orient, we have been as poor for a run of games now as we have been all season. Looks grim.
