Apologies if mentioned already but Tisdale mentioned after the match that it was "difficult to take when you get so close"
Close to what ?? A point ??

A point at Northampton would have been a decent result however even if you draw all 46 games you will either get relegated or be very close to getting relegated.

It would be nice if we actually went for the three points rather than hoping to hold on for one.

Most teams in league 2 are very beatable, why not have a go at beating them ??

Mansfield for example, look at their team, hardly full of goals and lower league superstars is it, anything other than three points should be "difficult to take".

We really need to kick this negative loser attitude into touch asap.

Disbelief...
It is very worrying when you consider just over a season ago we were turning over teams away from home with confidence and flair. Now we are hanging in there for a goalless draw after one shot on target all game.

globe, any turning over of teams away from home has been the exception, the norm in the 30 years I have supported the club is getting thumped.

Backing Gary Caldwell, thanks Matt and good luck.

Doesn't make it acceptable this season. To stay up we need to find ways of winning a certain number of games and obtaining enough draws to get us to safety, to do this we need to either become very good at keeping things tight and nicking points which we are not good at or take a more attacking mindset.
