Will need to rely upon the commentary team when the ball is on the far side of the pitch! See more when the camera has rain on it! :lol: :lol: :lol: Has it come in with the tide?

Stuck watching on the iFollow with Covid for this unfortunately. On the bright side the weather looks a bit grim.

Philips has got his proper head on today. Almost scored, made a couple of good tackles already and some decent passes. Good first 15 minutes generally.

Seems like we've been on top so far, hope we can capitalize with a goal shortly otherwise Fleetwood will grow back in to this.

Broadly agree, but the two best chances both fell to Fleetwood. O'Connor with a superb tackle and the other, Gibson got a great tackle in, then cleared by Letheren. Conditions such that the commentary team missed Gibson's excellent touch. But in the general play, I think we're on top.

As you say, we need a goal!

Wonder if we have a spare white or yellow kit to lend to Fleetwood? Can't see Fleetwood players on the far side of the pitch, must be a nightmare for linesmen, especially making decisions about off-sides.

I wouldn't worry about that. I'm pretty sure they just guess, this gives them an excuse too.

I think they just did :cry: :cry: :cry: Looked really tight when they flagged Cole off.

Obika off for Ayunga.

If they interview Cole after the match, he may be answering in a higher pitched voice! :shock: :oops: :oops: :oops:

All blokes will be thinking OUCH!

Still working his way back to fitness of course but Obika looks like he's got the potential to be a real handful for us. Combination of him and Stockton could be good for us. Hopefully Cole is ok here first.

Can't see both teams scoring, so the next goal is likely to be the winner.

Actually, can't see, full-stop!

Philips off for Widig. He had a good game.

Ref's not giving us ANYTHING! :evil: :evil: :evil:

Phillips put a good shift in. All of them have, hope we get something out of this to show for it. Would help if the ref woke up.

Gibson or O'Connor my MotM. Philips not far behind. Everyone dug in deeply.

Aghhhh...

Cole one on one, but the defender got back. Cole decided to check back rather than shoot! Great ball from Wildig.

I would have given MOTM to Ryan thought he did really well and got stuck in.

I think AOC looked more comfortable today playing with Ryan and Gibson

Shame we just lacked any type of creativity.

O’Connor all day for me as MOM. We commented that it looked like he realised that he had no centre back partner and decided to do it all himself. He was class.
Some good performances and we looked solid at least. It stops the rot, now we have to work on getting quality upgrade in the final third as we have been 4 games without scoring!!

Was very impressed with their little winger Hayes who had the beating on numerous times of our defence . Also their speed was impressive. If only we could have a winger with that skill who could take on and beat his man and then the next man.

Overall a draw was a fair result but did nothing for our league position with Shrewsbury winning.
