A point is better than nothing. Need to dust themselves down and regroup.

tbf Wigans squad is a lot better than Salops and they rested a fair few and easily beat Bournemouth ressies
Cant see us getting top 2 now, I reckon Wigan and Blackburn will pull away

Well I suppose dropping to 3rd having let a two nil goal lead go at home we should be disappointed but can't say I am. We're doing alright. Need to see the games come just the once a week and I think we'll be back on track. We played some good stuff today. Just couldn't keep it going for the full 90. No surprise there though. Keep going Town...

An excellent 60 mins. Should have been 3 or 4 up. Sadly chances missed have cost us. Donny rattled us in the last 30 mins and probably deserved a point. We had no answer once they pressed us. Not seen a replay of their second but Henderson appeared under little pressure but just misjudged where the line was and stepped back with the ball in his hands. Looked over at first watch and we had no answer after that.
Sadler was fabulous and my MOTM and Abu covered pretty much every blade of grass. Lowe also looked very enterprising going forward. Looking forward to seeing him have another run out.
All in all feel really flat now. We should have put this to bed at 2-0. The players didn't look tired but played for 60 mins with a very high intensity. Don't want to make excuses but wonder if games have caught up with us.
Pompey next week is a huge play off six pointer too.

Heads up, today was a fluke. We were the better team especially in in first half and both their goal came from Henderson errors (slipped for the first and walked the ball behind the line for the second) but Henderson is normally as solid as they come and I'm sure will not produce a repeat performance again this season. Play like that in most games and we will win comfortably.

I'm afraid the manager has to accept responsibility for that shocking performance in the last 20 mins . The first Doncaster goal came from a slip and is just one of them things . Absolutely no need to change system whatsoever , after he did that we just looked like we'd never played together before . We battered them with our usual system . Hendrie and Lowe in the full back positions were doing well. Should have been like for like changes in my opinion. What's the point in John Lewis being at the club , he won't play him , may aswell get rid and get someone who he is prepared to play . The least said about beckles the better , and it doesn't help the lad getting shoved in every position across the back line every 5 minutes . It's like the magic 70 min mark before we make a sub every game , it's not illegal to change it before , and to top it off Doncaster had 10 men for the last 10 minutes ! Once donny had some instructions at half time and a substitution at half time whalley and rodman just disappeared out of the game .

Agree about it being Hurst's fault, lets hope he learns not to change system every 5 minutes unlike Mellon

Both goals , the system had nothing to do with , as soon as we changed it though we offered absolutely nothing going forward . If you think about how dominant we were first half our inability to score and decision making is haunting us , we can't score from open play at the moment . Having said that , our set pieces were right on point today. Should have been 4 or 5 up at half time , they were all over the place and we only have ourselves to blame .

Today summed up the season in some respects. Lots of dominant possession and some good positions, but no final product. Sometimes flukey goals against will hurt you.
Keep doing what we're doing and we'll be fine.

If the subs had worked it would be seen as inspired move. It is what it is.

Dominant for 60 minutes but a goalkeeping slip and then an error cost us. Tiredness is such an easy excuse - they looked shellshocked not tired.
Baffled why we changed shape though. A Henderson slip shouldn’t have been catalyst for 5 at the back. Doncaster offered very little until then, very odd move. I’d have just taken weak link Rodman off for Arthur and carried on as we were. Hendrie and Lowe both looked fantastic until the formation change!
