Terrific performance

[TodwickOwl]

They were absolutely shocking

 

Theyre getting points from battling and bullying - didn’t even get best of us on that 

 

Completely murdered them bet they can’t believe they got a point

Tell you what though. 11 goals in 5 games, and heaven knows how many chances in those 5 games.

 

We’ll put 6 past someone soon. 
 

And there’s only so many times that opponents will score from so few chances.

No complaints over the attacking side of the game. But it would be nice to see more clean sheets.
 

I think that’s the difference between us going up automatically. 

[McRightSide]

I agree

 

Another great performance and we deserved 3 points

 

Even more positive is Mendez-Laing looks handy, so even more strength in the squad

[BadBoy1762]

3 at the back (in no particular order)

[Clusky]

Went for the first time since Huddersfield. Thought we played some really nice stuff. Positive football. 

[Onge]

It's been a huge turnaround. We look positive, creative and crucially we look dangerous. If we can stop conceding worldies we'll be in a good place.

 

But above all else, we're entertaining to watch. I've enjoyed these last few matches more than almost everything in the past two seasons. Can't feel too bad about the result today after that performance, which makes for a pleasant change.

[Owls77]

It’s really important we maintain these level of performances so we can hunt down those top two heading into the early part of 2022!

 

I always expected us to improve as the season went on, but some of those early performances were so dreadful I wanted Moore out. Big pat on the back for him.

 

Dropping out of the FA cup was probably best thing to happen to us, other than the EFL trophy, we’ve got a decent break to get some bodies back hopefully.

[Maddogbob]

Thought we were great today. Really enjoyed watching that game.

Isn’t it 4 goals conceded from 5 shots on target from the last 3 home games? 

[S1Owl]

i recall that full house in league 1 v Wycombe.. kind of unsettles

We must have had 10 shots on target? I'm chuffed with how we played. Wycombe must be over the moon with a point

 

Said so on RS driving home; Double figures for shots on target for second match on the trot. 

[Simon1984]

Tighten up at the back we get top two it’s that easy , we have looked really good over the last 5 games ..

[Flying V]

Played some lovely football at times, and improved no end. Deserved to win, but we should be in top 6 end of season.

[Striggy]

Obvs disappointed we didn’t win, but much encouraged after last three performances, good to see a home draw not booed off 

[Nut]

This is the most optimistic thread I've seen all season. So many games are really tight and could go either way and ultimately, the result often distorts the comments you see on here. To draw at home against Wycombe and see such positivity shows we're heading in the right direction. A good December and continued improvement and we could be in for a memorable season.

No complaints about that today.

 

Play like today and Tuesday and we go up. No doubt in my mind.

 

One of the best teams in the division were our equals for 25 minutes, and were bossed overwhelmingly for 65 minutes.
 

We we’re superb attacking, and oddly, despite conceding two, we stopped them getting a sniff otherwise.

 

3 wins and 2 draws in 5 games, which should really have been 5 wins. We are on fire and look like only getting stronger.

 

I think today was far from terrific, but we still should have won the game, which I think is a positive. 

 

We started far too slow today, the majority of the side looked well off the pace. But as the game wore on we got better and better, unfortunately we just weren't clinical enough and Paterson's clumsiness cost us 2 points.

Also between sort of September and early November I was giving Moore some right hammer, I wasn't happy. But once again I'm happy to continually have egg on my face. Keep it up Wednesday 

No need for any qualms about commenting how poor we were for that spell - it was showing few signs of life and needed calling out. 
 

Credit to the players and management though for having found a way through it. I wasn’t sure if they would, but the signs are very positive. The key is now consistency, I’ve not seen a side to even remotely fear this season at Hillsborough. If our players continue to put the application in that they have past few games, it’s there for the taking this season. 

[TrickyTrev]

We are now starting to look a top side at this level. Something appears to have “clicked”.

 

I don’t mind admitting Darren Moore is proving me (and a lot of other fans who called for his head earlier this season) wrong.

 

Once we sure up that back line, we could really push on.

[oldowl67]

My first game back at Hillsborough for a couple of years. So good to step back inside the my spiritual home after so long away.

 

Thoroughly enjoyed that performance and we definitely deserved to win. We made Wycombe look very ordinary and they’ll be delighted to come away with a draw. So many positives to take from the performance and feel some of the criticism of our players in other threads is harsh.

When we get some defenders back or arrive in January we should be unstoppable 

Keeper for me, get in a confident bloke who can organise and Marshall that back line.
