Could and probably should have been straight red. Fortunately only one game ban.

Well, 2nd half was a bit better but what a bloody frustrating game! Could hear Coley 'questioning' the referee on the way off the pitch.
In poor conditions & having been reduced to 10 men i suppose we should be grateful for a point but if only Smyth hadn't been squished by their loanee from Luton that would've been a certain goal.
One to forget & should be a better game on Tuesday against a Plymouth side who play football rather than hoof ball

Awful game one to forget point gained two lost awful conditions with the temperature to drop below zero forecast will be a big task to get Tuesday,s game on, individual performances hard to judge defence improved second half Barclay with some decent forays forward new lad hard to tell today looks like he likes to get forward, no complaints on the sending off two silly challenges from Pritchard, note good sides don't get beat even under par.

cant weigh up how we nearly always play poor against a side at bottom end? it beats the crap outa me

Some opinions on game, Overall even game in conditions that had to be adapted too, probably suites the natural Keith curle direct style of play. Are defence stuck up well, I remember a few years ago where we succumb eventually to aerial bombardment but not now.
Particularly Barclay and Nottingham stud up well.
Despite Dan Jewell having a moan about the ref I felt he kept control quite well and fairly.
At least another point towards the initial staying up target and then we can chip away onwards on improbable play off push. Phillips showed some good glimpses today of being the get in the box player. I feel we miss Butcher a little when he isn't in the team.
The tactics change of putting on the extra height assisted the team defensively although it lessed are flank attack ability.

Talk about after the Lord Mayor’s parade.
Only consolations were Philips’ performance, clean sheet, and one point. Otherwise frustrating and forgettable 95 minutes.
But then, if Stanley will go a score a month’s worth of goals in one match...
Difficult conditions and I can’t see them being any better for Tuesday night.

oh i can exile we always play better against better sides i think. the conditions could mean no game though was quite a few off today.

Difficult conditions for both sides and the pitch will likely get even worse with the 3 games in a week scenario. Keith Curles teams can always be difficult to beat so all in all if you cant win don't lose....so not a bad result for me.
