Hewitt & Gordon both put in huge shifts yesterday, there was no lack of desire in the last 15 minutes, just a lack of fuel in the tank.
I wouldn't score any of the starting 11 below a 7 yesterday.
I thought Akins, Hewitt, Maris, Lapslie & Quinn were all excellent.
My only complaint yesterday would have been the timing of the subs. Tough to make changes when we were playing well, but fresh legs in midfield attack before the equaliser may have prevented the attack from building in the 1st place.

What has transfer windows got to do with yesterday ?
If we had bought in a centre half/ striker in that was within our budget that wouldn't have stopped them bringing on Bannan and Smith who are prob on 10k + a week would it...
We were undone by in the end a very good league 1 side...
Loads of positives from yesterday Adam.

That was my main gripe really. You could see we were starting to look leggy, and as soon as they started to throw on fresh legs, it should have prompted Nigel to do the same just to see the result out.
Quinny hardly ever completes a full 90, so I was expecting him to be taken off at around the same time Wednesday started to change it. I was shocked he did the full game in the end.

we were discussing in commentary around the 60-70 minute mark whether we would make changes. I said I wouldn't because every player was playing so well and I wouldn't disrupt that, and no-one appeared to struggling.

We were discussing it before their first goal and would like to have made changes earlier than Clough did but felt the options on the bench were very limited. Apart from Oates who clearly isn't match fit, our bench would not have improved us, in fact, the lack of pace on the bench was the last thing we needed! Our improved performance on last week's horrific effort was because some of those on the bench weren't playing. It is abundantly clear again that our first 12 or 13 are very good, after that, well we saw at Harrogate. Overall it was a great performance, especially the three in centre midfield, but I understand where Adam is coming from.

I’ve noticed this trait in Clough tactics… for me when playing well against a good side controlling the game, when they make changes you have to react and make equal changes to stop the impetus moving to the opposition… clough seems to let it happen and then makes the changes when opposition scores… i said yesterday when bannan came on we needed changes fast or it’ll be a long last 15…not rocket science. Letting them score before changes way too late…they cheered like they’d scored when bannan and the striker came on that should have been the warning
