Match Thread vs Yeovil Town 21/11/17

The best thing about tonight’s result is that we’ve increased the number of points between us and the fourth placed team.

True! That matters far more than being top of the league. If we're in a pack of two or three that breaks away from 4th place, but we have to accept finishing behind Luton, that's fine with me.

Five away games without a win. A win in our next away game (Luton) would be timely and could see us open up a 3 point lead at the top.

I remember Nathan Jones coming in to Luton around the same time as Fullacrap took over us and what a polar opposite he turned out to be... they will take some stopping this season

Did I hear tonight on Sky that we have not won away from home for 2 months now?

We've not won away since beating Exeter at the end of September

.....and we only lost 1 point to 8th place....it was 9 points on Saturday, 8 tonight....no point in getting too upset, we're in a cracking position

Love it, the same t@@ts come out only when there’s a mistake / bad performance, he’s what we’ve got, live with it, happy with a point away from
home although 3 would have been awesome.

Trouble is Kels, it feels like 2 points lost rather than 1 gained, we were coasting...under no real pressure but we started to sit deeper and deeper conceding the midfield to Yeovil....we should have pushed for the 2nd goal IMO and put the game away.......onwards and upwards...in KN we trust

I post when we win as well, praising those who deserve it, like Hewitt recently. Mind you, it's true we do hear from the same regulars when there's a mistake, very often in Richard Duffy's case because there's so many of them! It's a platform that never stops giving!

To be fair I should have said the singular, wasn’t aimed at you. I think the frustrating thing is we know he’s not the best but we have no realistic options:

1: The transfer window is shut we can’t sign a replacement

2: Is Hollis a suitable replacement?

3: Does Nolan think he’s ok, and sees no problem?

Whatever the answer IF ( and that’s the important thing ) Nolan wants to replace him we just can’t at the moment so have to live with what we have. We are in a great position none of us really expected us to be in, we have to try and make the best with what we have and not start a witch hunt when a mistake is made. Look at last year some players including Duffy were scared at the Lane in case they made a mistake and the crowds reaction. We can’t go back to a situation like that it will just breed more mistakes, it’s all about confidence, we need to get behind players not slate them.

Well said....no point in slagging players off when we're in such a cracking position....I wasn't a huge fan of Stead 5 or 6 games ago, but we keep nailing the 2 points a game average and I'm well happy with that

... couldn't give a damn about what some of you complacent/head in the sand denyers think. We've known from last season that Duffy is a liability. He may have improved but he is past it ... now too slow; he has genuine low cunning, having reached the stage of his career where he has to resort to trying to cheat both referees and against other players. He's a disgrace.
