    Hang on.
    This is a football club who only entered the league in 2012. It has a 5000 stadium etc.
    In terms of stature, they are light years behind DCFC in players and facilities.
    You play to your strengths and whats in front of you.
    They played for a draw, got it and were very happy. You had 2/3 rds of the pocession and 4 times the amount of shots.
    I'd have been very happy as well, in their shoes.
    You can talk about floodgates, but you cost yourselves those 2 points, not them.

    As for Fleetwood they were amazed at the Derby brigade, never seen anything like it. Had their cameras out filming us all game.

    They wont get another set of fans like it at their plush shed

    No. You hang on. 11v11. They've been together a lot longer than we have. Was I disparaging of Fleetwood? No. Their keeper was brilliant as I explained in the post to which you replied. Of course they were happy. So would I have been, in fact, I was last season when WBA tore us a new one and did everything but score. If you wish to persist posting on the DCFC board, just maybe, for once, you should read what's written and take that on board rather than give it a twist that isn't there. Not literally, not figuratively. If you can't do that simple thing then maybe you might like to return to the NFFC board and stay there. Do us all a favour and take your biased claptrap elsewhere.

    Sorry, but no. Lines like this put you firmly in the we score and romp it camp?
    You are simply guessing, they may have changed their plan and your goal rush may never have happened.
    It was a borderline DCFCA comment

    Regretfully gotta agree, 'chances' mean nothing, and its a failed argument, when we rejoice in games where we get one chance and score, likwise a rejuvenated Fleetwood might have overrun us. Ifs and buts dont count, goals do. Just IMO
