Maybe not a "must win" but definitely a "must not lose" match tonight.
Defeat would destroy any positivity from the last 3 games.
I see it is the same team except for Robinson in for the injured Taylor.
Fingers crossed - we must not lose!

Another last gasp goal conceded.
Can we not concentrate.
33% possession this time - very low against a poor team.

In the end an away draw is acceptable but we were twice ahead.
Three successive games where we have led late into the game and couldn't hold on.
We must win some home games soon

We must win some home games soon Sorry Davidm I canโt accept that. We should be winning when we twice went ahead in a game against a team lacking more confidence than US These are the valuable wins that keep good momentum and keep us up and that for me is 2 MASSIVE points dropped ๐ก๐ก

Looking at that Sunderland squad I still think that's a good point. I was really worried that a defeat would take the wind out of our sails completely. 4 unbeaten and confidence is getting higher. Henry maybe our charm.
These points are only worth something if we can get points on the board at The Macron, which we need to start doing. Again so many games left in the season and at least we can score these days so always gives us a chance. Last month we'd have lost this one 3-0

Last month we'd have lost this one 3-0 I wish I had your optimism OooM The goals highlight our lack of pace at the back, any attacking winger or midfielder, even striker, could easily carve through our centre backs. A better team wouldnโt have conceded the 3 we scored and a better team would have taken us to the cleaners. Again though, QPR have beaten Wolves and Sheff United, whereas we got a point from them. Iโm just so gutted with only a point and I want a manager that goes into that dressing room at full time and proper lays into them for the crap 3rd equaliser

4 games undefeated and if Birmingham win tonight we are are still 7 points from the pack that we need to catch so yes draws are no good to us at the moment we need wins starting at home on Saturday.

Iโm just so gutted with only a point and I want a manager that goes into that dressing room at full time and proper lays into them for the crap 3rd equaliser I've never been known for my optimism ever before. I'm just taking the game out of context and focusing on the result, which I feel was a good point. In fact even if we were going for play offs, a trip to Sunderland on a freezing cold Tuesday night after a trip from the capital on Saturday, getting two draws is good value. We must have been travelling more than training and our current MVPs are Henry(old) and Ameobi and Vela(recovering still). What impressed me is that after squandering a lead and going behind we didn't combust as I would have predicted but we got back into the game and regained the lead. Yes it's 4 points dropped from winning positions, which absolutely needs to be addressed. I know we could have been off the bottom- but we also could have been rooted to it and Mackems would be clear. They are also are able to bring on a million pound striker from the bench and have so much more quality than us. O'shea, Oviedo, Gibson, Grabban, Vaughan, etc. Let's not forget they would go into the game as big favourites. Perhaps the reason for my optimism is because I spared myself the minute by minute commentary and just checked the scores so at the time I wasn't aware that we ever led. I saw 1-1, 2-2 and 3-3. Don't get me wrong picking up single points now is not enough and I don't think we have what it takes to win games and ultimately I feel we will go down and as bottom club but i can't knock them for last night or Fulham. The reason I think we won't win enough games by the way is for this reason. To win a game we need all these factors: Alnwick needs to make 3 or 4 world class saves. Beevers and Wheater need to concentrate for 96 minutes and make no mistakes. Little and Taylor Robison need to stop crosses coming in. The midfielders need to make sure that when we clear the lines we fully clear. We need to score with every chance we create(last night 3/4 and no win). Even if we only create one chance. The referee needs to give us the run of the green. It seems only if all these go our way do we have a chance to win a narrow game. It's like a huge Jenga block and one of those factors goes against and the whole block goes tumbling, there's tears and your left cleaning up a big Jengary mess.
