I reckon with a fully fit squad we'd have won easily. Under the circumstances a good result.

Agreed. Very good performance under the circumstances. The situation really couldn't be much more complicated. Some key players missing, players playing when clearly not fit and players having to play out of position. The team gave everything.

Not the best game but a well earned point given the circumstances.

Absolutely, there was plenty of fight out there today in a team that’s down to the bare bones, but were massively lacking quality in possession all of the pitch, which probably cost plus 3 points today. A draw was probably a fair result

How refreshing is it to have a manager that answers questions about injuries.

Good news, Guthries injury doesn’t sound as bad as it looked.

It's telling that when Drysdale is announced as a ref for your games there's a collective groan.

He consistently gets decisions wrong, he's officious, card-happy and, worst of all, likes to make himself the centre of attention. Did you see the way he struck a pose as he awarded that decision against Hondermarck on the edge of the area? Ridiculous. The man is a buffoon.

I always think a good ref is like a good centre-back; when they are having a good game you scarcely notice them.

You always notice Darren Drysdale.

Thought he spoke well, if a bit frenetically.
Regards information on injuries though, he notably just said he won't be giving timescales on them.
How long before he stops discussing their nature?

That was a reasonable performance. Not decent, but given the situation, it was acceptable.
And it was far better than what Sammo served up in his last couple of games, which was not acceptable.

Hello Bingers Hope you are well

Yes, good thanks Baldy. Nice to see your presence.

Keep us informed about any potential visits to Sixfields, that's got to be worth a trip south.

What a gutsy, hardworking performance.

We were bossing a poor Stevenage side who don't travel well....until the horrendous injury to Captain Guthrie.

This obviously changed everything.
McGowan was having his best game for ages in a more forward midfield position & Hondermark & Pinnock were superb.

One can possibly forgive the Rookie Dobson for trying his best to set them up with stupid fouls around the box.....but the inept, idle shift put in by Fosu really needs to be called out !

Thought Stevenage were really poor and our bunch of crocks were firmly outplaying them until they all got tired in the second half. Really impressed with the spirit shown and you can see what Nolan is trying to do. Fosu and Hoskins getting back fit will really help, Fosu’s strike just wide is the sort of thing we need, and Hoskins made some decent breaks down the right and got balls in the box.

Overall, tighter at the back in the last 2 and just signs today that we’re sorting ourselves out going forward. Onwards to Burton.

Stevenage looked so poor and with a fully fit squad I'd be expecting us to beat them and Shrewsbury.

Sandwiched between The Gas and The Posh though.
