Wabara and Quinn are horrendous. It's actually embarrassing watching them.

When you've lost three on the bounce, you have to stop the rot. Job done.

Build from the back. Don't concede, don't lose.

Decent result for us today.

Agreed Col,
You start every game with a point and no goals conceded - first step, keep the point and the 0 goals conceded!

After that (certainly for us at this level) everything extra is a bonus!

Clean sheets and set pieces is how you survive and prosper in this league

Could have been a very different story had Jean Yves Mvoto had any control over where he heads the ball. How many free headers did we give him in front of goal?!

Woulda, coulda, shoulda. You don't get anything for what might have been.

The sort of attitude that means we'll leave it, and keep giving away free headers from set pieces. When someone comes along who has their radar coordinated properly and can head a ball on target, it won't be shoulda, woulda, coulda, but dida concedea sloppy goala.

Yeah it's nice to have a clean sheet but we were lucky to not concede and it's disgraceful that in a relegation battle and a local derby to not manage a single shot on target that's not good enough!

b*llocks to that. The method means nothing. It's a point away from home in the Championship. Plenty good enough for me.
