First time Rovers have scored a Championship equaliser since April 2nd 2022.

Wow.

Just wow.

[booth]

I've got palpitations.

1-1 kinell!

[chaddyrovers]

Very good point here. Well done Rovers.

I believe so. Certainly the first time we've equalised this season.

That is one hell of a stat.

[yankfan]

Take the point but dire play. Don’t see us making the playoffs with our form. 

[SBlue]

Good point. Decent performance. 

Came from behind - draw specialists!

[G Somerset Rover]

Well I certainly didn’t see us getting a point when we went one behind as we were terrible for a while after. That gotta be our first point from a losing position this season?!

Edit: I can see from Angry Pirate that it is indeed.

Yes in the league but done it several times in the cups

[BigBar]

Bittersweet. 

[toogs]

Terrible tactics and terrible performance. Again. 

[ItsRoverZ]

Full time! 1-1! Huge two away points from Watford and West brom, we competed and tbf the goals we conceded in both games were avoidable as hell! 

If only we could of shown up against Wigan! ..beat Swansea on Saturday and its been a brilliant 2 weeks tbf! We just need to be more brave going forward, a bit quicker, all in all though can't complain about the last to performances! Get in

[Miker]

Second half performance was horrendous... but a point here is a good result. 

We desperately need an O'Brien in midfield, but stuck with Morton/Buckley/Travis who are all not good enough for a promotion chasing side. 

[Proudtobeblue&white]

Take that. A point better than nothing.

[rovers11]

Two very tough away games, two very good results.

Still feel the football is unwatchable but credit where it's due for two good results.

[had.e.nuff]

I didn't know you were allowed to get points when the other team scored first

[Angry_Pirate]

Bonus: I was going to add that the the last time Rovers scored a Championship equaliser, the other team scored in the 100th minute. Figured I'd wait till FT to share that part and avoid a jinx.

[simongarnerisgod]

lets face the facts,we need a complete new midfield,2 quick full backs and a couple of centre forwards to have a go at promotion,are these players coming in the summer,i doubt it,i can see what jdt wants to do but you can`t do it with the personel he`s got

[booth]

I'm amazed people are moaning, I expected nothing from the last two games. Two points from two difficult away games.

Fair enough we'll f*** it up at home to Swansea and Blackpool like...

[Wheelton Blue]

Good point that, well done Rovers.

The subs were awful though and nearly lost us the game as a result; the nothingness of Hedges and the aimless running around of Szmodics.

Thank goodness Brereton remembered how to shoot.

[Armchair supporter supremo]

Gone from having a bizarre 6 months of not being able to get a draw to now ONLY DRAWS.

Could only happen at VenkysBrfc.

I'll take it though!!! So far for his first season you cant really say JDT has done a poor job! especially considering what he has to work with and who he is working for!!

Pears might actually be a goalkeeper.

Shades of Raya - decent shot stopper, but shit on crosses.

[den]

I thought we were a disorganised, error strewn mess TBH.

Spin it however you like, that's a very good point at one of the league's in-form teams.

Undefeated in consecutive away games at Watford and WBA; every single one of us would have taken that.

Pears excellent, delighted for BBD - looked a lot better today.

We really need O'Brien to turn these draws into wins.

I mean, just dropping Morton would probably help turn some of them into wins.

Szmodics has to take the foul there 

He injured himself trying to foul the guy.

Hedges was looking a star player a potential the beginning of the season. the fks happened to him! even szmodics was chipping in with goals and making himself busy to begin with.
