Well. A points a point and they all help and it sounds like we played ok. These are the games we need to win though. Fingers crossed we give it a go.

I think it's more the manner of the point today. Defeat could have floored us after dominating the whole game, but to earn a point right at the death, even though we deserved to win, I'm sure will give the lads a real boost.

Best performance of the season. Every player grafted and worked to create chances. Ridiculously unlucky to go in losing at HT, probably more than a bit fortunate to squeak a last-minute penalty, but overall deserved more than a draw. Credit to Rob & Larry for chucking on more attacking players as the game went on.

Today’s starting eleven is easily good enough to keep us up. There are solid players in each position, and a system that seems to work. The key now is consistency. I fancy us to win next week and I’m sure I’ll go along to Barwell now, having seen some really positive signs today.

Should have won comfortably.... but didn't ... in the end got a point, from a dodgey penalty decision at the death !! Draw your own conclusion.!! Fact is there is no goals in the team, again they were a poor side today and very nearly took home all 3 points !! A vast improvement on last weeks showing.. on top all game but no goals and with a better final ball from the breakaways that st Ives had in the second half could have lost by two or three... fact !! And valuable points dropped again today. No one should be happy with a last gasp draw at home to a poor side when we're in the mire !!

I’m happy. Halesowen played well today. If that game got replayed out ten times, we’d have won nine. It was unlucky not to win, so let’s not be too doom and gloom.

I'm not happy. Still failing to win and time is running out. There's only so much reliance we can have on other teams' failings to help us out. An improved performance, yes, but I'm yet to be convinced that we'll get out of this.

Firstly
May I wish yeltzurg and Juanillo a safe journey to Specsave

We created enough chances to win 3 / 4 games

Don’t tell me your not happy unless your whinging

Andy,

I see you have ackowleged the improvement and it did not take 3 games

I thought Kieran was absolutely superb , never missed a header, in fact I would have pushed him up front for the last 15 minutes as we needed his ability in the air

Onwards and upwards I saw a united team efforts today and good movement

Regards

Mike ( my other team is Leeds so I am used to being hated)

Specsavers? I said it was improved. I'm not happy as we didn't win!
Expressing scepticism that we will avoid the drop is not unreasonable given where we are.
