Without a goal scorer, we are a mid-table team at best. A point today was good but we will lose against Peterborough. Every games different, who knows.

We will struggle against Peterborough on Tuesday (if it goes ahead) with their firepower, but the 5-1 win for them today was helped by Shrewsbury having a player sent off on half time and P'boro scoring three lateish goals

Two evenly matched mid table teams. Nicholson deserves a run Yes he does - excellent goal and close to get another. He strikes id so well with both feet.

Their 18 year old CB certainly showed all ours up today

Should be beating teams like this if we are serious about challenging at the top Expect Sunderland said the same on Tuesday. They had 7 points from 9 before today. Not a bad point in the road. Yeah I think everybody thought Rochdale were some relegation threatens team. Before their point against Sunderland they beat both Shrewsbury and Burton away. They are a good mid table team. So a point away from home isn’t so bad. That’s the sort of game we would have almost certainly lost if it was under BG last season.

Not a bad point, some encouraging signs of improvement in the second half. Rochdale is never traditionally a happy hunting ground for us.
I think we’re going to have to work on possession retention, we try to play it out the back but far too many times, especially in the first half the ball was given away far too cheaply. Would like to see the intensity stepped up at times as well.
Nicholson looks a class act, got to be a starter after that performance. I thought Westbrooke had a good game and played some nice balls in the second half, we always look better when he’s on his game.
Peterborough at home on Tuesday will be a tough game with the form they’re in, will have to be sharp and focussed from the first whistle for that.

Well done Gas, important not to lose 2 on the trot, Dale have turned in some good performances this season and should not be looked on as easy fodder, disrespectful to do so.

Never know in this league. They have won 5 out of 6 or something like that, but drew 2 2 with Burton on Tuesday. Hopefully that side will turn up 🤣

League table has taken shape already. Except for Lincoln, the rest of the top teams are all the ones you would expect to be up there.

Our form is ok and getting better so we shouldn't fear Peterborough after one big win.

An away point is a good point, but with Peterborough coming up 3 points would have felt much better, somebody at the club needs to get on the phone to Swindon to find out how the mighty Hull got turned over with their championship quality players!

Kept the ball much better 2nd half but still frustrating to see us waste good chances to break either by playing the wrong pass or not playing passes quickly enough. Once again positives to take but we do look like the back 3 (Baldwin in particular) has the potential to give a soft goal away at any point. Plenty to work on but also a lot to be encouraged by

Dont know if just me but I find us very boring to watch I feel the same. For me, the possession based game is great, if you play with a high tempo & have terriers around the field to win back the ball when you lose it. To play deep in your own half & pass the ball around the back before lumping it forward is not my idea of attractive football. Not saying the players are not trying, but it feels like a lazy style to me.
