I only heard the radio commentary so I can’t do a full match report, but from what I heard, we were phenomenally unlucky not to come away with three points. It just goes to show what happens when you don’t have a proven goalscorer in your team. There seemed to be at least two cast iron chances which a predatory striker would have undoubtedly tucked away. But the fact is we put in a great performance and the two central defenders can be very proud of the shift they put in.
It was also good to see Ravel Morrison get on at the end, and he very nearly tucked home a winner. Indeed, he would have done had Maiga not touched it on from an offside position. Morrison will undoubtedly start against Cheltenham on Tuesday.
Anyway, for a few hours at least, we are second in the league!
