Good point

[Scooter]

That was a tough game but I thought a draw was fair. Both sides defended well. Wycombe are a good side so take the point and move on.
We didn’t test their keeper though (apart from his mistake) so need to be more clinical
Plenty of hard work so well done Rovers

[GazLaz]

Their subs were great and made them better. Our subs made us worse.

[steve@dcfd]

I agree with that Gaz

[mushRTID]

No idea why he took Gibbo off.
He was disappointed too when he looked up and saw his number flashed.
Also no idea why on 94mins and Timmy has the ball ready to launch it one final time, our big number 9 is out on the wing.

Good point though and it’s clear we can compete…I am concerned we don’t look to create much but I do think that will come.

[Chris Black come back]

Think we will have learned a lot from that game. As above, we dropped intensity and structure with our substitutions and their three came on and we were all over the place. More positives than negatives overall and a point against a side who were right up there last season, isn't too bad.

We need to convert all that good play and possession in the first half into more goal threat though. Our press also totally fell apart after the substitutes came on. Ajayi wasn't great with retaining possession and Hanlan didn't seem to have same intensity as Billy. Middleton is a wasted player unless we have someone in the box or arriving into the box, as his excellent crosses just end up losing us possession.

Why is Molyneux's right foot soooo much worse than his left?

A couple of occasions they had 3 or 4 players on him!

Better players this season and forcing him onto his right more.

Is that a serious question?

As a glass half full guy, I would say it is probably for the same reason his left foot is so much better than his right?

Molyneux was poor again today. He should have been taken off. Gibson was pretty good and deserved to get more minutes.

Playing Bailey at right back is just nonsensical (unless Nixon is not fit), got to play your best players in positions that affect the game. Really poor decision.

Broadbent good again but I can’t see us scoring enough goals this season to trouble the top 6.

Positive start to the season and we have certainly improved from last year, it’s much better to watch.

8084 gate. Did anyone catch the away attendance? Looked around 300-400.

[DonnyRover]

Middleton needs to work on cutting in and shooting with his right, feel he could have had a couple today if he could do it and other teams will work him out if he’s going down the line every time

[Padge_DRFC]

Is Molyneux exempt from being subbed? Awful today.

[GazLaz]

He’s a one trick pony. Lacks real quality.

I'm about as serious as it gets mucker. I want to know the answer right down to the biological and genetic level.

For anyone who's not Filo, I am alluding of course to some slopiness and sub-par things in our best player's game. It would be great to have him playing at the top of his game all the time but its not always like that.

[roversdude]

Thought the ref ruined the game to be honest. He was shocking for both sides and didn’t let it flow.
Wycombe are the best side we have faced this season so a decent point (still disappointed though)

[Padge_DRFC]

So far we've played 2 teams I'm sure will be bottom 6. Today we played someone who will probably be mid table and where I think we'll finish. Unless we sign a decent striker. Sharp was a huge upgrade today but can't be the main man if we're serious about giving promotion a go

[jmt23]

We’ve all watched Crewe and should know enough to see he tires in the second half, if Crewe  is the preference then we need a similar player to replace him once tired - Ben Close!

Gibson was good today, and should not have come off, as mentioned Molyneux has been poor so far this season, and should’ve been replaced. 

Broadbent was superb again today, that could be 3 MOM on the trot.

Not sure about the dig to Middleton either, he did impact play when he came on.

Can't help but feel the same. We're a striker away from being a real contender - the question is will the club wait till January.

A dropped points against a team who’ve build a reputation on grabbing what ever gets presented . Goals at home would still seem to be McCanns only concern , Billy was a handful, but it tells you that McCann still can’t  commit with any confidence a striker he can rely on other that Sharp .Its early days and after the great Middlesbrough result its back down with a bump  ,someone other than Sharp is going to have step up and claim the responsibility of leading from the front for this long season .

[Chris Black come back]

It's way too early to reach a judgement on Hanlan and maybe like Street in the early days we are not using him optimally, but it is not clear how he is either going to be a threat himself or the link guy to bring in our wide and advance midfield players. Doesn't in these early games appear to be too hot on the press either.

[danumdon]

Hard won point in the end, they are no mugs and will be in the mix by the end of the season.

It was telling that are subs didn't light up like there's did and we took the wrong wide player off. If he was adamant to get Middleton on wide left i would have liked Mols off Adjayi to wide right and Gibson in the 10 position.

BS put a big workload in there and we didn't have a player to replace him, this could be our undoing, the forward quality is sparse, when you compare to what they had in reserve and consider that they sold their best striker this week then you can see the problem we will have.

If GM's has a bit left in reserve then now rather than Jan might be an optimum time to twist one last time.

i get what your saying about adding some variety to his play but to be fair he managed to get in three good crosses in from the byline that we need to get on the end of in his short time on the pitch.

Wasn’t it written on here that during a pre season friendly, Cliffe was shouting at him to run more.

Have to say I’m not impressed yet, from what I’ve seen so far I’d rather have Ironside on the pitch instead.

I would otherwise agree, but the difference is Hanlan is now 28 years old and played for 7/8 different clubs. He is what he is. Street came to us as still a relatively young prospect with developement ahead of him.

[Bentley Bullet]

Sharp was excellent today, and when he went off, I'm sure Wycombe were delighted.

[Fal]

The ball for our goal was definitely out of play but I’ll take it!

[Iberian Red]

Agree with the OP
,a point . It could've
3 points or zero.
Well earned point today
