    We had more chances in the first half because WIgan were playing a higher line and left lots of space in behind. They dropped deeper in the second half and we couldn't break them down. But great point and on to Leeds.

    Puts Wigan one point behind us and they could be playing Fulham who could still be going for automatic right? 
    Wigan 2 points behind us, after 12 point deduction.

    Nice to be on the giving end of an injury time goal for once. The reality is we’ve gone up against the form team in the league, one loss in 14 games, and battled for a point that means it’s still in our hands on the last day. That’s our reality and now we need to looks towards the next game. If we can combine our attacking intent today with our defending from the first games of the restart we could be ok. And we scored twice in one game!

    Damn really thought we were gonna get the winner at the end, lets hope Fulham win today, so they are still in with a chance of automatics against Hull
    This is just it... With Brentford losing, if Fulham win today then they can even snatch second place themselves

    What we lack in quality we make up, and some, in fighting spirit. Yes we should of won, and Wigan will go away from the valley very relieved, but regardless of our shortcomings, I feckin love our boys. 
    Leeds next, we’ve still got a fighting chance, and when it comes to fight, we have that in spades. 
    I think the neighbourhood will assume I’ve been beaten up by the missus tonight as I’ve been screaming for 2 hours straight!

    So proud of the lads for that. I've slagged them off enough when we concede a late goal, but to go and score one under all that pressure shows you they do care. May not have been the win we wanted, but we go into the final day with our destiny in our own hands. Don't write these lads off!

    Leeds looked pretty lost without Kalvin Phillips as well. Hoping they can’t fix their system within a week.

    It's absolute torture supporting us but they are my team and always will be ...despite all the injuries and Roland, the old owners, the new owners (if there are any) doing their level best to cock things up ...God knows how Lee bowyer, the players and the staff have been able to cope..I salute them all

    Least we deserved. Barcelona, sorry Wigan were not quite as good as we were lead to believe. Not sure I have quite the admiration that some do for Wigan, didn't Bowyer say that with Moore and Lowe they had spent quite a few million whereas we have Bonne and Davison. Totally forgive Bonne for his miss. Our defence was poor. We go again on Weds and one last effort. Very proud of Charlton. There is still hope.

    Providing Wigan get docked I think that's us safe... I can't see Wigan getting more than a draw at Fulham, they were crap

    At the start of the season if you'd offered me a situation where we'd be going into the last day not in the relegation zone and with our fate in our own hands, I'd of taken it. 

    I think most of us would've to especially with the absolute shite that our club has been dragged through. 

    So come Wednesday I will be giving Bowyer and the boys every chance of keeping us in the league. 

    COYR!!!

    Finished 2-2.
    And now you've spoiled it for those who missed the game, but like to read the match thread from the beginning without knowing the score.

    Disciplinary action required, points deduction, 2 game suspension, etc.

    Glad for Bonne to get the equaliser. Brilliant composed finish at the death when he could have choked. I have been resigned to relegation and if we swerve it I will just be glad that last seasons heroics weren’t for nothing.

    Leeds will surely also give a run out to fringe players, given they've been pretty much playing the same players every 3-4 days since the restart.

    The worry is that the racist Casilla will come back in and have a blinder against us.

    I just don't get those HTsubs unless FC and field were injured. We lost all height and strength in midfield and the shape of the team, As a result we were much worse in the second half. Strange.

    Phew.

    Won't be in the bottom three at the start of the game Wednesday, it's in our hands as they say. All pray for a draw between Hull & Luton and we're almost there (with the 12 point deduction for Wigan).

    Why do you have the volume turned down, are you watching porn whilst hiding it from the missus? ;)

    Nearly cried at the equalizer. Nearly cried at the equalizer on Wednesday. I have no idea what happens from here. I have no idea what just happened. 

    Not sure I believe in linear time or that I'm made of flesh anymore but I may just be a ball of energy and when you think about it aren't we all just balls of energy bursting into each other?

    I think supporting this club is starting to affect me.

    I love this team. They are rubbish but they are our rubbish.

    If we stay up, Bowyer needs a statue.
    True, we've had some poor teams that could be described as lacking in effort at times. Same can't be said of this lot.

    He won't. As well as being a horrible racist he's also not a very good keeper.
  • About time we scored in injury time instead of conceding. All eyes on events at Hull starting soon. If we do stay up its likely going to be down to a third party's misfortune rather than our own achievement.

    However, an unlikely win at Leeds and we're safe.

    After Birmingham I thought we were done for, but now we have a chance.

    What a performance against the form side in the division. If we can stay up it will be one hell of a performance from the team.. bring on Wednesday

    I would like to take this opportunity to apologise to Bonne. I’ve given him so much stick since the restart but he went and got another goal when it mattered. Fair play to him.
    Fair play to ya
    You weren't alone though in giving him stick. Some of the comments on the match thread regarding Bonne made me pretty embarrassed.
    That last 20 mins or so was painful though. We looked like we had nothing left and Wigan would just close out the game.
    Pleased with the point but fuck me i still feel like we could have won that game today. Still hanging in there
