A nought nought draw Might just seem poor But what they always say, Is, if a win CanÃÆââ¬Å¡Ãâôt be roped in Then take a point, away And honestly ÃÆââ¬Å¡ÃâôTwas hard to see A winner there today, Both sides fought hard But donÃÆââ¬Å¡Ãâôt discard How poor the pitch did play No grouses though For on that show We deserved nothing more, But the point shot Us up a spot Onto the second floor And as it stands With games in hand Others may eye a chance, To take our place But in that case TheyÃÆââ¬Å¡Ãâôll need points to advance WeÃÆââ¬Å¡Ãâôre not alone For all have shown A weakness here and there, ThatÃÆââ¬Å¡Ãâôs why this league Always intrigues Shocks can come anywhere Had I to choose IÃÆââ¬Å¡Ãâôd rather cruise Up there in second spot, Than have a game Or two to aim For points as fixtures clot.

It comes to something when we're disappointed that we only got 1 point away to our worst bogey team. It shows how far we've come! Nice work again, RBF
Although disappointed, we should certainly be happy with a point dave, every point is a good point come May.
I can't help but feel like this was a missed opportunity, and we're only second on games played - Cardiff should be able to take a point from their extra match and Nottingham Forest 2 from 2 matches in hand. However, I don't think their games in hand will come for a while later because we play on Tuesday so maybe this is an opportunity to put on pressure by keeping winning and wait for them to slip up? I've said it before and I'll say it again - unbeaten in the league since early December!
excellent as usual rbf! I'd take that point any day, roll on Tuesday we just need to keep winning now we have the position others may have games in hand but as we know in this division thats no guarantee of points!
Marsupial, in an ideal world, IÃÆââ¬Å¡Ãâôd agree with you, and say that it was an opportunity missed, but unfortunately football has never been part of an ideal world. A point on the day was about all we could have hoped for, Palace put in a good shift, the pitch did sound awful( how many times did we hear players from both sides not controlling balls, putting crosses behind the goal, slamming passes out for throws etc,etc), and we were not at our best, except the defence which IÃÆââ¬Å¡Ãâôd say sounded very solid. Circumstance wil sometimes dictate how well or not we play. and ancient, IÃÆââ¬Å¡Ãâôm afraid I belong to the Neil Adams fan club, and would never leave Holt out, who brings so much more than just goal scoring and goal threats to the team, personally IÃÆââ¬Å¡Ãâôm far more worried about Martin C at the moment, who seems to have lost all confidence and appetite, which definitely is affecting his all round game. I know he probably only needs a goal or two to get him going again, but he needs to get them soon.
