A bit of justice there, a bad foul on Tiensia was one of the reasons for the added time….90+3 & 90+5 😁
We didn't underestimate them, we just didn't think they were that good.

What a bloody result that is when 2-0 down at 90 minutes!

Fantastic point, doesn't even do it justice.

How the heck did we get a point out of that. Thankfully that game out the way. Horrible stadium. All bells and whistles but totally devoid of any atmosphere. I’d take obstructed views and old terraces any day over that place.

We deserved it. We played pretty well despite all the talk of a of a 'bad performance'.

Slight over-reaction I'd say, given we've only managed 2 wins in the last 10 games.

We had 2 wins in the first 2 games against the 2 bottom teams, which gave us a false sense of our ability.

Managed to squeak a very lucky point today with 2 goals in 93rd and 95th minute. Phew.

Sorry, PW needs to come up with a lot more wins before he's awarded a Medal.

It isn't over until it's over.

Really pleased for Acquah getting that goal - was under double-marking most of game and finding it hard to make an impact despite big efforts.

The harder Gotts tried, the more wayward his passes became - frustrated? Possibly reason for substitution.

The statistics show we are toothless up front, good sides take their chances no matter how good they look on the ball. I'm not sure I completely believe the early season hype about us having a supposedly improved side at the moment.
Maybe wait until full time before commenting, you tosser.
Popular side since '03.

It's down to formation and who plays in a front 3 ( which we should play) don't beat yourself up !

It was frustrating and the forwards - Garner and Telford in particular - have to work the chances the way Quigley used to do. We can't wait until Canavan is playing on the edge of the opponents' box.
Nevertheless, we have to remember that 8 of 12 games have been away and we have a game in hand over most.
Don't let the old man in.

FORZA BLUEBIRDS, was thinking we would get a win today so have to be happy with point, a bit much some of the negative Wild comments. Still think he is doing a good job and the club in general has moved forward so much. Anyway can enjoy my beer tonight. Bluebird per sempre.

You won’t have been the only one. Will still make good viewing when you watch back on catch up. Great hit from Acquah but not sure if it took a touch on the way in. It was a horrible game and glad it’s out the way and we salvaged a point.

I was listening to my headphones whilst working in the garage and my ears are still ringing from Adam's reaction to Acquah's goal.
