Absolutely woeful first half. How can they train all week and produce such a gutless lethargic performance? Too timid to break forward and passing sideways. As for the goal there was nobody anywhere near their guy. Terrible. Second half better but too many wasted crosses. Wycombe looked comfortable at the back and we should never have allowed that. Draw a fair result but it was a disappointing performance

Another really good performance from the Millers.
Two good teams who look as though they will be in with a shout at the end of the season.
A deserved mom performance from Kian Spence, but why did he choose to shoot from 30 yards in the first half when he had good options either side.
If we had had Nombe on the field in the second half, think we could have won. Hugill put in another impressive shift, particularly when you consider the injury he's carrying.
The good run continues and we are hanging in there.

Another decent performance - especially in light of all the injuries - against a good side. Obviously lacking fire power up front, but nothing we don't know about. An impressive 12 game unbeaten run now in all competitions. Must be doing something right and if we can keep ticking over until January, who knows. The league is wide open.

I came away from the stadium today pleased with the result, and had we had better finishes, all 3 points were there for the taking in the second half.
Credit to Wycombe as they gave us a football lesson in passing in the first half and they fully deserved, albeit lucky, their goal. Where was our marking for the goal, a crazy deflected looping ball even caught Dawson out as he remained on his line.
Half time team talk and we were completely different in the second half. More committed, better passing, some good movements that opened them up on both flanks and we gradually grew and grew. Another well worked goal and we were back in it with what looked like only one team would win it in the last 10 minutes.
I have to ask the obvious question. Why when their player shoved his face into Dan Gore's, why was he only shown a yellow card? Any physical contact applied facially like he did warranted a straight red. Ref may not have seen it but the linesman should have been able to assist him and that player should have gone.
Passion, commitment, graft, unity, with a never say die attitude, now stretches our run to 9 unbeaten. Considering how many are missing through injury, you surely have to praise the lads for their application. Well done keep it going.

Panned out as I thought it might,close game,we were the best 2nd half,they won the 1st half.
Another fit striker today and I`m sure we would have won it,but we need to keep grinding out results like this until we have something like a strike force.
Special mention to Spence,Powell,and Raffa,but everyone did well really,Huggy could hardly walk at the end,imagine a time when we`ve got 2 strikers on the pitch and 2 more on the bench.....ie,normal !

Agree with the assessment that the first half was poor. We got out footballed.
Second half, different matter. We passed and moved and deserved to equaliser and maybe more.
Ive criticised Hamshaw but credit to him, he is building a side. Why oh why wont TS back him. A decent striker in this team and we could make the playoffs. Hugill is getting the praise for battling through an injury but he aint good enough.
TS - be brave. Gamble on a Whatmore or the like and take a chance. Or this is on you!
