Less than 16k (15,982). I know it’s on tv but with Villa bringing about 5k that’s poor. Just shows that the walk on pricing strategy does not bring the fans in.

3,998 Villa, Stuart.

That extra quality makes the difference.

Reed and Brereton.

[aletheia]

Game management time. Nervy last 10. Sitting deep not our strength?

[AdamRochina]

villa good chance here from free kick,  reed silly push,  been brilliant though

[perthblue02]

FFS

[Husky]

Useless @#/?!

[AdamRochina]

sucker punch,  villa been shite

[SoldierMo]

Never a freekick

[aletheia]

Game management -stupid tackle from Reed. Also, Brereton putting in no challenge on right just before.

[Fraserkirky]

Never a freekick

[Gogger]

Dunno where Raya thinks the shot will come..

[aletheia]

Thrown away when we have clearly been better side. Where did 5 mins injury time come from?

[AdamRochina]

Can't say anything negative though we have been decent and deserve the win,  villa been shocking barley had a sniff , granted we need to create more in open play but we still by far the better side, that's a sucker punch

[imy9]

What a great free kick.

[Ewood Ace]

Said it before say it again Raya is an overrated goalkeeper. Cost us a number of points already this season.

[SoldierMo]

Fair result played well

[Husky]

Very poor since scoring. Defending far too deep, there was no pressure on the ball at all until they were already in our half.

Will have to see the goal again, but the wall didn't look the best.

Brereton looks like he could be a big waste of money, he looks slow and immobile.

Another draw snatched away with some poor defending and game management.

 

[Mike E]

What was Charlie doing in that wall? He was pushing it away from the ball!

I'll take a draw, but feels like it was thrown away tbh.

[The Big Picture]

We are not having any luck! Saying that we are looking reasonably comfortable in this Div.

[booth]

Robbed!

[DE.]

A draw is still an OK result, but it's a real shame we can't hold onto leads. That's four points now we've already thrown away in the last few minutes. We deserved to win this one. I suppose we just dust ourselves down and move on. The performance was good enough to take positives from and Reed in particular looked very good. If we keep playing like this we'll be comfortably mid-table, but our inability to hold onto wins like this may cost us a lot more points as the season goes on, particularly as we struggle to score if Dack isn't in the team or on form.

Reed beens brilliant since coming on, looks twice the player smallwood is

Hmm

[yellowsubmarine]

Yet again, a point before the game will be a great result. But having taken the lead and then throwing 2 points away in the final minutes from a silly freekick is just plain annoying. Hate to blame Reed as he has been great since coming on, but sadly... 

[Mr. E]

Absolute sheit. Might as well have stayed in League 1 if we are going to throw every game past the 90th mark. Dack may be our little Messi, but defensively we have no grit.

Reed cost us the game. Ridiculous to give away a free kick there at that point in the game. 2 points on him.

Brereton is also a big worry. Did nothing but lose the ball and fail to even get the basics done when he came on. At best he is one for the future, but nothing about the hype around him has been true so far.

I'd look more at the goalkeeper that's the second time he has cost us 3 points in the 90th minute now.
