Spike Posted October 29, 2022 Report Share Posted October 29, 2022 No matter what anyone says today the back 3 have been brilliant, not often I'll say that about Vyner but he's been great too. Would had been a win had we left players unmarked on a corner but that shouldn't be the job of the back three. Prior to kick off I would have snatched a point so cannot complain but as per usual, despite being at home, we were hanging on.. Frustrating that we can't finish a match on a high! 3 Quote Link to comment

Sheppy2003 Posted October 29, 2022 Report Share Posted October 29, 2022 Sam Bell gets an opportunity, trotting around and as soon as a player goes pst him he makes no effort to close down or tackle 1 Quote Link to comment
petehinton Posted October 29, 2022 Report Share Posted October 29, 2022 Should’ve won that 2 or 3-0. Points dropped for me but decent result in the circumstances 1 Quote Link to comment
AshtonRobin21 Posted October 29, 2022 Report Share Posted October 29, 2022 I would have taken a point before kick-off. But I found it so frustrating how we lost all of our attacking threat once they equalised. They would have left gaps for us to counter-attack in the later stages. Semenyo and Conway would have been able to exploit the gaps. Quote Link to comment
Lanterne Rouge Posted October 29, 2022 Report Share Posted October 29, 2022 Fair result given the team we had to put out and the ones that stepped in like Pring did very well. 1 Quote Link to comment
Northern Red Posted October 29, 2022 Report Share Posted October 29, 2022 That'll do. Shame we couldn't see it out but it took a quality strike to deny us. Back 3 were outstanding in the circumstances. 6 Quote Link to comment
David Brent Posted October 29, 2022 Report Share Posted October 29, 2022 Fair enough. Another point on the board. Quote Link to comment
Jerseybean Posted October 29, 2022 Author Report Share Posted October 29, 2022 Well played City, we only had 29% of the ball but limited them to just a few chances. Unfortunately we were not clinical enough especially AS with a great chance to open the scoring. Certainly under the circumstances a well deserved point. Quote Link to comment

Hats off to Pring & Tanner and even Vyner none of whom put a foot wrong. We have to keep with Conway & Wells up top. Agree…but “even Vyner”? 4 Quote Link to comment
Bryans Left Peg Posted October 29, 2022 Report Share Posted October 29, 2022 (edited) Would’ve been happy with a point pre-march but ultimately leaving stadium annoyed. Thought we were the better team up until our goal, and then we just… stopped pressing or doing anything that was working well? Subs were poor and when the inevitable equaliser came, they looked like the only team who could win it. Frustrated today, I lay all the blame on Pearson for his tactics and substitutions today. Killed the game. Frustrated after that. Edited October 29, 2022 by Bryans Left Peg Typos 1 Quote Link to comment

I can see light at the end of the tunnel even if it is a long tunnel. 3 1 Quote Link to comment

Some really good defensive play and always gave themselves a chance. I agree Swansea I thought were an attractive side without much substance. Take a point I think the only things that disappointed me was the lack of ambition after going a goal up- and also one of wells or semenyo should have stayed on. Points like today really add up at season end 1 Quote Link to comment

Semenyo and Conway would have been able to exploit the gaps. Decent match in fairness. Always easy in hindsight but wonder if Semenyo is better at the moment coming on with 30 to go. Thought we worked incredibly hard without the ball and back three were very solid. Made them score a goal that needed a good finish. Only some good play stoped them creating more, but in hindsight Swansea were pleasing on the eye but did not end up creating that much in terms of clear chances. Sometimes if it’s got a bit wrong it’s important to at least get the point, which in fairness I thought we deserved. 1 Quote Link to comment
KendrickDNB Posted October 29, 2022 Report Share Posted October 29, 2022 I am appalled the linesman continued with that going on behind him… Use some human decency and get someone help when they need it… Quote Link to comment

Major Isewater Posted October 29, 2022 Report Share Posted October 29, 2022 Another Championship game, evenly matched . On another day we win that 2 or 3 -1 . A battling performance especially given the disruption due to Illness in the camp. Well done to all , another point on the board and moving on to the next match. 1 Quote Link to comment
tin Posted October 29, 2022 Report Share Posted October 29, 2022 A point was a fair reflection of the game, and Andre Marriner was excellent IMO. Semenyo should’ve buried that golden chance early on, but Swansea created bugger all despite their possession. 1 Quote Link to comment

Red_Alligator Posted October 29, 2022 Report Share Posted October 29, 2022 All things considered, a valuable point. On another day might have sneaked it, but given Swansea's domination in possession, I'll take that. Quote Link to comment

Tell you what I thought the best result was , not the 1-1 scoreline But the performance of some of the younger players who haven’t found game time and the return to some form and good signs from others 9 Quote Link to comment
