Great away performance - ok we didn't win it but over 90 minutes, we were consistently the better side and to come back from Villa Park, at this point in the season, with that knowledge, is worth so much. We shouldn't have conceded twice from a winning position, but we were strong. We were creative. Maybe we need shite weather every week...
Really seeing all the early work behind the scenes starting to bear fruit now: there's no-one in this league we shouldn't be well capable of beating if we can keep steady at the back and pick up just a bit more flair in the January window. Another fine day at office for Gary. He knows where we still have work to do - but that's the thing, now I actually do trust him to know that.

Worked really hard and played well. Villa were always going to be a tough nut but, once again, we couldn't hold a lead.
Nevertheless, well done GR - a very solid 8+.

9 .... I’ve agreed with Sal at last! 😉 lol
We didn’t win, but I’m starting to believe in this team & Rowett for the first time this season... Still too many draws, but only one defeat in 13 games....I still think we can make the playoffs.

Good performance and some decent subs. We were always trying to be on the front foot and it was clear there was a positive team talk as our performance increased after half time.
Seriously Gary, this is all I ever ask for. Just go into games prepared to have a right go.

9 - not there, watched via streaming, thought we were the better team and kept trying to win until the very end. Can’t blame the manager for some of our wayward finishing or poor choices in the box. Not too sure about Butland’s failure to come for across headed in from 3 or 4 yards out, but difficult conditions to handle as a keeper.

8 Playing one of the form teams away and come away unlucky not to win. Had a number of really good chances, should have scored more. Well organised in MF and Def for the most part, I can only remember one good save Jack had to make. But weak goals conceded. Genuinely baffled by the lack of creativity on the bench (Bojan!). Why have Campbell there if the only way he's going to get on the pitch is if Bera & Crouch & Afobe all get injured? Waste of a space.

8 we were the better team, if the ref does his job properly we get all three points, saying that the defending for their second was poor and we really should have put the game beyond doubt, as it has been on this run its all looking very promising.

No complaints about the management, though I thought Berahino was too isolated at times.
Otherwise we were always trying to win the game.

Great performance but we should have buried villa today, as they were garbage. We are our own worst enemy for sloppy goals conceded at the death.

8+**...got ruddy soaked going back to the car (pub Liked the look of the starting 11, Saido holds the ball up so much better than 'fobes. Joe Allen could have had a hat trick coming in to the box late...has GR finally sussed where best to play the Welsh Pirlo? Felt their penno was dodgy but Pieters did get 'wrong side', and might have had a free kick before their second...did he really have to lie down so long? At the final whistle it felt like we had lost, but 24 hours on I guess it was a decent point. Would have liked Saido to have stayed on when Afobe joined the action, but otherwise can't really fault the manager

We have a 41 page thread on Rowett Out, but no one can hold their hand up and say "He did OK in this game". Unfortunately, I missed the game, so I'll take everyone's word that we played well. Now if we can just develop the knack of holding on to a lead ......

I just read your post entirely incorrectly for a minute then and thought you were saying “we just did ok” and not giving any credit. This is what this message board does, makes you think everyone is just negative 😂 We were very good on Saturday, very unlucky to not come home with a great result, not just a good one. Thanks in no small part to the manager. Not that many on here will see it that way.
