Apart from the heinous spelling error which has probably ruined @micra's evening

Had a decent length drive straight after the game ended so plenty of time to think about it all.

So forgive me a lengthy soliloquy on the position if I may

17 games to go and we have a 4 point lead over Wrexham who I notice have relied on a goal 87mins or later in their last 4 league wins.

They haven't won a league game by more than 1 goal since 23rd November.

After that, we have a superb 9 point gap to 4th, which is now Stockport, with Huddersfield encountering a woeful run of form, since sneaking a win at our place. Even if they win their game in hand they'd be 8 points behind us.

So while today in theory was 2 points lost, to the bottom team, we're in that period now where teams have strengthened, lowly teams are really scrapping and there aren't the easier wins of earlier season.

We didn't have our first choice full backs, Kone or Low today. We still have the two Sam's admirably holding the fort, but beyond the timescale they were probably initially told.

We've slowly got the Danish lads involved and next weekend we can properly give them starts in a bit of a freebie game.

Taylor back is a big boost however good Sonny has been. Today was one of those unfortunate situations you have a few times a season. It might be rescinded,it might not. But we're incredibly blessed at centre back now either way.

As long as the injured boys are back for the next league game, all is looking really rosy and March could possibly be the most exciting month we've had in the last 30 years or more supporting this club.

The penalty is up on F’book. Does look bad from the behind the goal camera but I’m not sure that angle was what the ref saw.

@Shev you posted this under the wrong account

Today we were without a permanent manager head-coach, both of our right-backs, our first-choice left-back, our first-choice centre-back, our midfield playmaker (who is no longer ours) and our first-choice striker and leading goalscorer.

We also played the final third of the game with ten men having lost another centre-back and needed our goalkeeper to save a penalty.

In those circumstances it feels like a point gained.

Monday will be pivotal to our chances of completing a successful season. Once that's done, we'll have a better idea of where we stand.

There’s a lot of football between now and May. We need to get ahold of ourselves a little bit.

Ok, forehead - still violent conduct

Just back. Knee jerk observations

Appalling referee. Not just the big decision all of it.

We need fullbacks. Skura was ok, Leahy’s tactic of letting their fullback cross time after time in the hope he tired himself out was questionable.

The Danish lads are not up to speed.

Fred is one of the most frustrating players of recent times. He can tear teams apart single handed.

Points dropped. For whatever reason points dropped.

Just seen it, he clearly threw his arm out, probably happens most games and not spotted. But, he made a mistake and got spotted.

Agree with all this. Big few days ahead, I really hope we see a full back, and another striker come in. A lot of us have droned on about getting Morley or a Morley clone in, today was further evidence this needs to happen, it’s the most important piece of business we will do this season (along with keeping Kone).

With a break from the league, 2 more weeks to get new signings up to speed, more signings to come in, Key players returning from injury, a new manager in the door and very winnable games coming in Feb there’s a lot to be positive about. COYB!
