First 2/3 only one team in it. Last 1/3 completely lost it.
We desperately need to convert chances to take the pressure of a one goal lead. Without that second goal you knew Blackburn would get a break and score.
Proper gutted by that result today.

They should have been awarded a goal early on as their player wasn't offside

Not much to talk about apart from their 'offside' goal. 2/3 we were well on top. However, you've got to take your chances and kill the game off. 3/3 we just shot ourselves in the foot really. Started to sit back and then there was a mad couple of minutes with the goal and red card.

Desperately need a finisher.
And, with that in mind, the fact that the gaffer didn't even give SV a sniff speaks volumes.

There goal wasn't offside early on but for the goal the ball went out, so cancelled each other out. With the sending off I'm happy with a draw. Today was the first game in a while we've looked a side with pace and before they equalised our game management was a lot better.

Agreed with Trousers' summary.
Very disappointing, but overall more enthused now than I was this time last week
Loan striker and we could really put a decent run together. No loan striker and we're probably not going to really challenge for top 6.

No loan striker and we're probably not going to really challenge for top 6. I think that's about right. The issue will be trying to find a striker who is currently available that is worth the investment.

We dominated the the first 60 minutes and could have been out of site.
Powell’s injury and tiredness allowed Blackburn to dominate the last 30 minutes.
Very promising starts for all three of the new players.

Spot on summary for me, if Tyrese had stayed fit, top 6 for the rest of the season would have been nailed on. If we can find a goalscorer this team could still do really well. I honestly believe given the difficult circumstances of the intense schedule, a complete lack of training time and Fairplay limitations, MON has done a remarkable job of getting the best he can out of this squad.
The new pace down the flanks is exciting, but we need someone on the end of the play to finish it. Those kinds of players are sadly very rare or too pricey for us in our fair play price bubble. I certainly have faith we actually have better people looking at trying to find a solution these days than we have had for a long time, all power to MON and his team.

We need the manager to wake up.
Why did we carry on with Allen and Mikel?
We know from the last 3/4 games they have lost their legs after 60 minutes. Yet we didn’t seem to have planned for it.
And it happened again. We were totally overrun through the middle and it cost us.
All completely avoidable and actually avoidable before the game if we take what’s gone on previously into account.
Why didn’t he?
So frustrating.
