But far from a disappointing performance. |  |

Yes to result but no to performance. Thought that was the worst I've seen from Hirst and Luongo. Jackson is all work and no quality too often when it counts. Morsy, whilst decent and great goal, thought he gave it away more than usual. Harness didn’t grab his chance and Ladapo had poor touch at times. Chappers finishing was off.
Tuanzebe, Hladky, Davis, Clarke, Taylor and Hutch all ok. |  |

Very clear and obvious Broadhead shaped hole tonight. I feel a striker is needed. We controlled the game but just seemed to lack that conviction in the final third. Rotherham were there for the taking tonight too. |
Hirst and Ladapo were both not in the game at all.
We didn't produce enough chances to clearly win. Opponents will score freak goals and refs will make stupid decisions. We can only control the controllable and didn't do enough tonight. We weren't robbed imo.
It just feels painful as briefly, it didn't matter. [Post edited 7 Nov 2023 22:10]

Performance was awful. We had about three shots on goal and didn't really create any clear cut chances against the worst defence in the league. Hirst and Chaplin did nothing. Ladapo way off pace. Harness lacked quality and lluongo poor.
Should have won that by at least three. |
Really harsh on Horst I thought. Thought we came up against a side with no quality but very organised. Fair play to them and we’ll have to get used to it as the season goes on.
It’s testament to how good we’ve been that we’re disappointed with how we played tonight. |  | | |

I thought it was another poor performance against a woeful side. Hopefully get 3 points (and a good performance) vs Swansea and this point will then look a lot better. |
We weren't clinical, again, and Rotherham played well enough. It was not a poor performance and the oppo were not woeful. Unless you're measuring it against a greatest hits highlights package from something or other.
GAAAAAAHHHH |  |

Not enough threat in the final third. Although with 3 penalties it shouldn't have mattered. |
Only 1 realistically. But it would have totally changed the game. |  | | |

Thought it was very accurate. The only benefit Hirst provided was giving the linesman exercise lifting his arm. Not that Ladapo was much better, but at least didn't keep getting caught offside. | |

For all our possession and all their hoofball, they seemed to have more of a threat.
Strange lethargic performance by Town where we seemed to have fluked the win only to be stymied by a well taken goal. Also not getting one of the three penalties was a bad return. We could do with better delivery on our corners. A touch of practice on this seems essential but clearly that free kick for Morsy's goal was straight off the practice ground.Nice if we got the win but continuing to not lose is better.

I just don't see that as the case. Poor performance and one we can't afford to repeat too often if we have serious aspirations to hold on to top 2. | |

We'd be better off if Harness hadn't scored his second on Saturday but Tiehi's effort had gone high and wide tonight. | |

Agreed, I thought we played pretty well. Disappointing result and the way it came but can’t really bemoan an away point. On to Saturday. |  | | |

Wasn’t great. Need a much better option to come on for Hirst at this level as well.
Broadhead and Williams big misses in the first 11. I’d like to see Taylor have a start soon. [Post edited 7 Nov 2023 22:16]

Thought it was a very below par I have to say by our high standards.
Tough couple of games but doesn’t take anything away from the incredible start to the season we have made. |  | | |

It was like rewatching one of last seasons games. Everyone behind the ball, constant niggly fouls, and opponents happy to take a point at home. Exactly what I expected from Rotherham!
Sadly Chappers didn’t have his shooting boots on, or rather had them on the wrong way round. Otherwise good ball retention and passing but struggled to break them down. That said we were better after the subs, and Hutch caused them far more trouble than Jackson. Great heart again but we are shipping too many goals at the moment. | | | |

With the tally that is likely needed this season 2 points ultimately is a poor return from the two games. We had a game in hand but Leeds have in fact grained ground on us in these 5 days, so overall it’s a disappointment. Not to take anything away from the start. | | | |

Rothers deserved absolutely nothing from that. I haven't seen the stats but we were the only team in it pretty much all second half. But that's football innit. | |

Good point about corners. We've had a shed load of corners in the past few games, but I can't recall our scoring from one, or even going close? | | | |

Pills and crack available round the back.
Seriously though... that game was not a poor performance... we may as well say Chappers' clinical finishing previously was lucky and tonight was the norm. All over the oppo generally.
It's not a direct comparison, but I'm reminded of a McCarthy draw against Howe's Bournemouth (also 2-2 I think) when they were a lot slicker (and cheatier) than us, and Howe was very arrogant about his team and the football we played. He wasn't wrong, mind.
On that note, what a difference McKenna is to Howe. Howe is a good football manager, but a very egotistical and gobshytey man. You have to be competitive in this game, but I really find him and his teams incredibly unlikable. | |

I felt individually there were some players not up to their normal levels but we still did more than enough to win the game. Chappers has a couple of decent chances and the pens not given which on any other day go differently and we win the game comfortably. |  | | |

Maybe if he doesn't throw his arms up theatrically but just falls under the challenge, it's given. You see them given all the time. Hirst also keeps getting caught offside atm. Something to work on. And something maybe the oppo are working on. | |

All over them and only managed three shots on target - a great shot, a scramble and a weak strike straight at the keeper at 2-2.
ETA - Not a scramble, a ball which bounced off the keeper. [Post edited 7 Nov 2023 23:05]

As Skysports pointed out at the end, a good advert for Championship football, mainly by us. There was some loverly slick passing and interplay, just rushed in the box. Need a bit more guile to see this position out. But what a journey. |  |

If that was a good advert for Championship... we've been spoilt. I didn't think it was a good game.  | |
