Gutted not to win. Really should have held out, a shit clearance cost us today.


Thought it was a really good game though,played attacking for the most part whilst also using game management.

Kemp was good in the space. I'd have given Goode MotM and though Saxon and Roberts were great.

Pattenden can't head very well/far. Phillips was a bit off his game at times. Some lovely play at times though between the likes of Kemp, White, Robbo, Phillips and Reid. Two great goals too.

Everyone put a shift in, hope they've still got plenty left in the tank for Tuesday.

Really good performance.

We were the better side for the majority, we played some really nice stuff, and I never felt troubled after we went 2-1 up, until a daft handball by Kemp and a poor headed clearance by Pattenden(?) in injury time cost us. Plus we had chances to put the game away, but wasted them.

A truly gutting (and IMO undeserved) goal to concede but at least other results went very well, bar Plymouth, and at least the goal we conceded wasn't as late as Huddersfield did, which would have been even more brutal. Still in our hands with three games to go, you take it.

An enjoyable and entertaining watch too, helped by them playing an open game and not coming to shut out shop, that always massively helps us as we can never break defensive sides down. We discussed before and during the game today that hopefully the remaining games will be open too, as (Wigan aside if they still need a point to stay up) our opponents should have nothing really to play for so no reason for them to be cagey.

I thought Kemp was unlucky with the handball. It bounced up awkwardly as he turned.

I actually thought the referee was pretty good today. We always criticise the bad referees but I thought he let the game flow quite well & kept control when necessary.

I’d have given MotM to Earley although Kemp was excellent. We played some really good attacking football so it’s gutting not to get the win. Matt Phillips had a strange game - his shooting was appalling! But his passing & crossing is very good.

I do worry about Pattenden though. He cost us the late goal & it’s not the first time that’s happened.

Overall a very good performance & an entertaining game. I’d have taken a draw before the game!

Aside from failing to book their man for a blatant trip on Kemp to prevent a break away i thought he was excellent.

It meant Roberts and Reid didn't bother falling over and two BS&P teams were able to have a proper battle.

Dan Phillips would have loved it out there today. The silly sod.

Best home game ive watched for a while in terms.of attacking intent from both sides. A good one for the neutral which is maybe unusual when we play.

I agree, Dan Phillips would’ve loved that. But then again, if he was playing maybe Louis wouldn’t have been on the pitch, so swings and roundabouts etc, as it turns out…

Shame could have just done with that breathing space and to drag Bradford back in.

Looking like we still might need 3 wins.

What are people's thoughts on the best outcome for Plymouth v Bradford next week?

Bradford to win.

Don't care about catching anybody, we want those below us to drop points.

If we win our two home games, the only way we miss out is if we lose at Donny and Luton win all three (we finish below them on GD) or we fail to beat Donny and Plymouth win all three.

Great point, but we should have won.

I’m well pleased we took a point off Lincoln. But if it wasn’t for our sloppy passing and poor delivery from set pieces I think we would have easily won.

Today was a good result if we go and get the three points on Tuesday. Get a point and it guarantees that only Cardiff have done the double over us this season.

Only Plymouth and Cardiff won today in the top half. So much inconsistency.
