The Journalist Posted February 15, 2023 Report Share Posted February 15, 2023 Stopped playing between the two goals. That’s the difference between a side pushing upwards and a side not. Would’ve won that otherwise. 2 Quote Link to comment
AberRed Posted February 15, 2023 Report Share Posted February 15, 2023 First genuinely disappointing result for quite a while. At least we got something from it Quote Link to comment
Numero Uno Posted February 15, 2023 Report Share Posted February 15, 2023 Take a point and move on. Overall we were crap. Cornick and Weimann rusty, we just can’t break teams like Wigan down. Still unbeaten this year, 10 point gap to 21st so not a disaster. Quote Link to comment
Fordy62 Posted February 15, 2023 Report Share Posted February 15, 2023 For me that should be three points. Max should save their effort. I bet 18 of 24 championship keepers saves that. Quote Link to comment
Malago Posted February 15, 2023 Report Share Posted February 15, 2023 No complaints. We’re a long way off play off material. Nothing to lose on Saturday. Might as well give it a good go. 1 Quote Link to comment
Spike Posted February 15, 2023 Report Share Posted February 15, 2023 A frustrating game that one, I think Wigan did a good job of applying the press on us at times, made it difficult to build up any kind of play. Loss of points comes down to poor defending, I mean we held Norwich off at 1-0 but today a sloppy bit of defending was the difference. Quote Link to comment
Jerseybean Posted February 15, 2023 Author Report Share Posted February 15, 2023 Immediate reflections on that…..low quality game, a draw was about right, either team could have nicked it, we didn’t create much, kind of game we would have lost a while back, poor goal for us to concede, thought Scotty and in glimpses Anis looked impressive. Ten unbeaten on to the next one. Quote Link to comment
Red Exile Posted February 15, 2023 Report Share Posted February 15, 2023 Poor - sorry to say. Too sloppy in our passing - gifting them possession which let them get back into the game. City at their worst for about 15 minutes. Needed someone to step in and calm things down. What a wasted opportunity. Still - doesn't look like we're getting relegated! Quote Link to comment
Mihai Posted February 15, 2023 Report Share Posted February 15, 2023 Guys why are you talking about playoffs ? Be glad we stay up and we can build on this 16 remaing games to push for a better place next season. Our team has no quality for top 6 yet. 2 Quote Link to comment
bs22 red Posted February 15, 2023 Report Share Posted February 15, 2023 4pts from the last 2 homes games would have taken that 2 Quote Link to comment

Northern Red Posted February 15, 2023 Report Share Posted February 15, 2023 Before Saturday I think we'd all have taken 4 points from the 2 games, just maybe not in this order though. 5 Quote Link to comment

Robin101 Posted February 15, 2023 Report Share Posted February 15, 2023 Well look, it’s a bit disappointing. But we were due a slightly dud performance and it’s positive that we got a draw not a 1-0 or 2-1 loss. And personally it’s great to be frustrated that our somewhat unlikely play off campaign has faltered rather than sinking towards relegation. You never know, beat Sunderland and it looks a great result again! Quote Link to comment
Bris Red Posted February 15, 2023 Report Share Posted February 15, 2023 Take a point. In reality we are still way off the pace in regards to the play-offs IMO. I still stand by what i said a few days ago that a top 12 finish would be a decent season given our circumstances. 6 1 Quote Link to comment

ciderwithtommy Posted February 15, 2023 Report Share Posted February 15, 2023 I just don’t get us going long for the last 10 minutes with bell and wells up top. Played into their hands. Quote Link to comment

Please stop the playoff chat that performance was miles and miles off the required standards I agree to a degree, too many changes but I thought Mehmeti was a whole other level out wide. Bell does an amazing job running and chasing down but he doesn't have that cross in his bag and he isn't as confident running at a player from a standstill. I'd be interested to see Mehmeti, Bell and Sykes upfront with Bell in the middle, I reckon his closing down and ability to create space off of the ball would be interesting with Sykes and Mehmeti looking to cut inside and cause panic.

cidercity1987 Posted February 15, 2023 Report Share Posted February 15, 2023 Scored a lovely goal, hit the post and the bar but didn't do enough to win Wigan looked decent and the kind of side that we never pick up a home win against 2 Quote Link to comment

petehinton Posted February 15, 2023 Report Share Posted February 15, 2023 9 unbeaten, in with a real shout to finish top 10, and rotated ourselves well considering wells Sykes and bell are far more suited to Sunderland away than Wigan at home. Theyve scored a truly shite goal and any chance came from deflections along the way. Hit the underside of the bar and inside of the post straight after Feels like some just want to find something to moan about after having it so good for a few months. 9 1 Quote Link to comment
