Carlos should have done better then I thought, pretty much straight at the keeper. Looking better at the moment.

[jbc.shrimp]

Something has to give with all these corners.

[tim-sanchez]

Very tough in this weather but we've been dreadful at set pieces. 8 corners and 2 very promising free kicks, don't think a single one has come close

[Slanester]

Price on anybody??

[Keith]

That was inside the area for me, I think we were lucky it wasn't a penalty.

Need to change something and get some attacking done.

O'Sullivan for McAlinden

[tim-sanchez]

I think we were better first half against the wind, it's been poor second half.

[Born again Bill]

Is this going to be another game of missed chances

[dannymorc1]

At last, great goal,

[tim-sanchez]

What a ball! Couldn't see who it was in the mist, Cooney? Great run to find space from Carlos as well, and perfect header

[jbc.shrimp]

Yesssssssssss, such a simple goal, but we had to work so hard for it !!!!!!

[Keith]

Great cross, lovely header.

'Not celebrating' is what they've been told by Football League due to COVID-19

[jbc.shrimp]

What do they have to do to get booked ??

[dannymorc1]

Cancelled out their 'penalty'?

[tim-sanchez]

Don't think we can complain about not having a penalty, we could have been 2-0 down and I'm not sure we'd have come back from that.

Shame Derek got sent off though, we'll miss him on the sidelines if he's banned

[jbc.shrimp]

What's Lavelle booked for ??

[dannymorc1]

Disgraceful referring! Been awful decisions all the game for both teams!

[MfcChris]

Draw fair result

[jbc.shrimp]

Very little urgency, and too many loose passes from us !

[tim-sanchez]

Felt like we didn't really get started until the last 20 minutes tonight, but when the weather's so poor it's really tough to judge the performance. I'll take a point

[Keith]

Cooney or Knight-Pecival MotM for me. Unlucky towards the end. I can't say I saw a foul for the penalty, even watching it twice. With the foul on McAlinden, ref perhaps had played enough advantage, given we got the shot off, but if so, their player should have been booked when the ball next went out of play, and they should have had two or three bookings for kicking the ball away.

Bit unlucky not to win, and yet a draw probably fair.

[Slanester]

A point is about fair, ref well???? Steadies the ship after a couple of losses. Next!!

[Screenster]

Didn't deserve to win for me, thought NKP was good and McAlinden made us more direct which we definitely needed. Would maybe like to see us mix it up a bit on Saturday shape wise? Just feel teams are starting to suss our game plan a little bit.

[Little Shrimp]

A pretty even first half which Walsall could probably argue they edged, then thought we dominated most of the second half. Can't really remember Walsall having a sustained period of play in our second half until about the 70th minute.

Struggled to get many clear cut chances, but there were a lot of men behind the ball for Walsall, hence why we ended up having so many corners which we didn't really capitalise on. Shame that Carlos missed that chance - but made up for it with a great header from a great cross!

Got away with the foul from Hendrie, but I think not getting a penalty for the pull on Wildig (which I though was a worse decision tbh - Hendrie foul was a close call) and not bringing the foul back on McAlinden once Stockton failed to control it was bizarre. Thought McAlinden looked sharp when he came on, worth a bit more time off the bench maybe as he offered something with his movement/passing.

Game opened up after we got the goal back, but then we had a good few chances to win - and not being given a pen! DA's interview should be tasty after being sent off!

Thought we deserved to win that.

Missed that!

Graeme Salisbury has IMO been a poor referee for some years. His decision making is very erratic and he seems to struggle to keep up with play.
