Just about to post the same thing MK. Another pathetic attempt at a 0-0 (hoping for a pen to sneak a win?) and Beestin sacrificed for entering the opposition half more than he’s allowed to.

Rochdale look dangerous down Pugh’s side – unfair on him to keep putting him in there.
O’Malley has a better all round game / has an excellent delivery – however we have nobody to deliver it to now that Loft has gone off.

For me Thompson was my motm. O’Malley was rightly dropped to the bench after his performance at barrow. We’re in desperate need of a striker but it’s a point on the board and a clean sheet

Thoughts:
Kenyon should be on the bench.
Green not cutting it for me.
CBs were splendid.
Good game for Rory – had surprisingly little to do.
For first time, I began to see what Neil is seeing in Pugh.
3 – 4 – 3 was a disaster.
I could not work out the formation second half but so much better. (What was it, BTW?)
Some class from Beestin – hope he hasn’t aggravated whatever his injury is.
Perry to take Kenyon’s slot.
Thought Hippo was super coming on as sub: grafted, tackled, passed well, caused trouble. Based on today, I’d put Hippo ahead of Green.
In the end – deserved a point.2 users thanked author for this post.
As a player, if Hippolyte is in front of you, you’ve got to be asking some serious questions of yourself

The defence is obviously going to be our main strength this season so well done to Cox for sorting that out, also a welcome clean sheet for Rory which should stop him getting an arse kicking on here tonight. We need that new striker and winger for sure plus something different in midfield to change things around when the manager needs to. If the Coventry lad comes back in a few weeks time I don’t see us needing another keeper option but we need a change of luck with injuries or else it will be very difficult this season. Can’t argue with an away point, we just need more scoring options to grab a few wins, well done guys, good point today.

Poor game with a second half slightly better than a dreadful first half.
Formation was all over the place. No width whatsoever and lucky not to concede from the full backs being exposed. Thompson did well but Pugh is not a right back so why are we starting him there ?
Loft injured so not recognised striker on the pitch after 20 minutes which after 2 games in is a an absolute disgrace. Utter shambolic organisation from the transfer department again.
We are basically a punt it forward and hope for the best team, no creativity whatsoever and no idea on how to break a side down.
On the positives, the centre backs look up to the job in this league and Watson had a good game so fair play.
A good point, but not optimistic at all going forward.

I doubt if another 44 0-0 draws will be enough to keep us up.

Liked the ref.
He allowed tackling and was not influenced by stupid shouts for freekicks.
Got a huge percentage of decisions right.Neil tried something new in formation which failed – he was maybe a bit slow to react to them cutting us to shreds in CM but when he did make his change of style – it was spot on.
Please. Anybody – what system was it?
As far as I could see there were a load of systems it was not …Agreed good ref.
No idea what the system was but it worked better when Beestin came on and we had 3 in cm.
If Loft had stayed on and Beestin started instead of Green who was an absolute waste of space we might’ve looked almost competent.
It was pretty much 550 a lot of the time.
Good shift from the 3 CB’s and Pugh and Thompson did well enough without really looking comfortable as wing backs.
Perry and Beestin looked decent.
Bunn I’m not sure about yet.
The plan was clearly everyone except Loft behind the ball and flood the box with the big lads for long throws/corners but after loft went off there didn’t seem to be a plan B.
