Hard to watch but I thought we were tough and well organised all over the pitch tonight.

Disagree, thought we played well, restricted Swansea to very little and unlucky not to get the win. Pugh MOM was an odd decision I thought he was poor.

I don't know the answer to this but when would the last time he had a run of games, age is against him but maybe he needs a consistent run of minutes to find himself again?

Agree the boys pulled themselves up by their bootstraps.

Grant hall back to his best so put me in chains and whip me for lambasting since Huddersfield.

Barbet Rangel hall manning our best defence.

Beast of a central midfield of ball and Cameron

Pugh and bos offered good out balls and tracked back well

Hugill battled well all night

Eze sublime

Like to see a few more shots on goal as we sometimes try to pass the ball through tight close defences.

Well done rangers keep it up

Excellent point tonight no question about that also the lesser spotted clean sheet made an appearance tonight which for me is a huge bonus. Tonight's point will count for nothing though if we don't get a result on Saturday, each season i'm always the same (obsessed with getting past the 40 point mark)

Pugh ? MOM? FMOB.

We do play some really nice stuff most of the time ... but....... if only we had a modern Brian Bedford around, a bloke who is crap at everything - apart from putting the ball in the back of the net in just about every game he played.

We need someone who looks for a goal every time the ball turns up in the box, instead of passing to someone else.

Disagree, he had a good game, just behind Cameron as MOTM for me. Involved at both ends, combining well with Manning.

Thought we played well throughout , swans never looked like scoring unless we imploded somewhere like we normally do, another day and the ref gives one of those penalty shouts.

I have seen some away performances recently that was tough to watch , that wasn’t one of them.
Done exactly what we needed to do , my only criticism is we could have made a more positive sub to try and win the game as they were poor but then again I suppose the main remit was to not lose

Just got home more than happy with a point , midfield excellent with Cameron and ball battling hard something sadly missing in recent games , manning played well as did abbey and hall
Hugill was on his own for most of tHe game but worked his socks off thought Pugh did well yes his best years are behind him but he played well for me .

I’d keep the same team sat no changed at all , get bright gambling a little bit more maybe his one fault is he didn’t take a chance of r the ball round the side if the full back preferring to drop short and not explore the yards behind the defender

Long day. So sleep now

I don't know about that, Swansea players were going down a little too easily for me. But had the last one been given, losing on a penalty in stoppage time would've been really tough to take

When Rangel and Barbet have both started our record is 15 points from 8 games.

Without doubt, with them and Cameron all in the side we are a far stronger and better organised team.

Was a long day. I left London at 8 on the national express as I want to see some family in the Rhondda before heading over to Swansea. Back on the OSC and in at 230! That is nearly a flight to Australia!!

A point is a point and a clean sheet is a clean sheet but......that was a game we could and should have won. I thought Warburton could have showed more intent with his subs but was more concerned with not losing rather than winning. The players didn’t show huge desire to go beyond the ball and flood forward. If they did then I think it would have caused Swansea some problems. The natives were quite restless and mute and Coooper won’t have long there. That felt like a recipe to go any bloody win a game. I

Swansea were poor and very blunt. Brewster doesn’t look much cop,Gallagher was a completely different player from the one who put in a MotM performance for Charlton at LR and Ayew did little apart from one waltzing run that had us in trouble. On Ayew, how he committed four fouls in the first half to be told no more then does another with the ref waving playing on but failing to come back and book him is just very inept officiating.

Back to us, defence looked better, Barbet is crucial to playing out and Mad Liam Kelly (loads of self talk) is much better than Lumley with the ball at his feet. Manning isn’t a left back, he plugged a gap, very well, whilst Wallace was riding himself of all the cholesterol from a lifetime of square sausage but it’s not Manning’s long term position because crucially he doesn’t defend well enough.

Pugh did a couple of lovely Cryruff turns, stood on the ball and looked like he had concrete boots on but the stadium announcer was the only other contender for MotM .

You won’t win many games of Championship football with Ball and Cameron in your centre mid. Simply not good enough in possession or mobile enough.

I want to see that Hugill chance in the 2nd min again as that looked like a very good one. Other than that he did 50% of his work really well, chest lay offs are his signature move.

Stops the rot and gives a foundation to go and get three points against Stoke.

Well done Rangers for last night. A fine 'win' in every way and totally unexpected. Raises hope for the remaining games.

One thing that did disappoint - Charlton winning at Forest. I was quietly confident of the 'Like Waiting For A Bus' scenario at the City Ground for us, fuelled by Tree complacency. No chance of that now IMHO.

We must keep going - pushing forward with real urgency - no sacking off. I think you can say that Barnsley and Luton will almost certainly be back in L1 next season - but Paul Cook and Wigan are still a worry for us.

Good summary but I’m not sure Warburton was more concerned with not losing rather than winning. From what I saw there was only one side actively trying win that game and looked comfortable at the back and dangerous going forward.

Possibly taking Pugh off and bringing on Chair or Clarke could’ve had a positive impact but I thought Pugh was doing well down the left and bearing in mind the masses of possession we had and the and chances we were creating, I can see why he didn’t change things.

Respect for making that journey on a Tuesday in Feb

Yeh the team selection looked like a proper, stodgy, get all the physicality and experience we can and don't lose set up at the start, but actually we were much the better team with all the chances and should have won.

Yes, kudos for doing the trip by bus. My knees would kill me. On the train back now. Good numbers. I'd estimate over 300.

The fans were screaming for a change and to get Pugh off. While I thought that too, I was surprised that Bright remained on. He was struggling and definitely needs some rest. Bringing on Clarke and Chair in the final ten minutes should have been enough to get us over the line.

That said, there is this don't lose v win problem for Warburton. He chose the former and I guess we can't falter him for that. However, to say we dropped two points and not make attacking subs in the last ten just, to me, makes little sense.

Hats off to all those who went. An evening game, miles away - abroad actually - in February, with Rangers on a terrible run... Respect!

I thought we looked much more solid, with an alert back four and a decent screen in front of it. I think Pugh was pretty good and put a lot of effort in but we were a bit shot shy. There was one occasion when it looked like we were trying to walk it in. Their pen that wasn't looked like the striker deliberately hooked his foot round our player's leg. I also felt like we were less inclined to pass it around pointlessly at the back. With our excellent attacking players, we really should not take too long getting the ball forward. What was it Warnock said? A team shouldn't be taking 20 passes to get it into the opposition's half.

I have rarely celebrated a 0-0 so much but that was a good result and a much-needed point and clean sheet. Let's hope it's a platform.

"Things had started becoming increasingly desperate at Loftus Road but QPR have been handed a massive lifeline and the place has absolutely erupted. it's carnage. It's bedlam. It's 1-1."

I thought Swansea were played poorly and can't believe they haven't lost more. Sections of the crowd chanting 'Cooper, sort it out'.

Stating the obvious but it was either an off night or they are on the demise and it felt like a missed opportunity not to capitslise. In fairness to MW he did acknowledge it was dropped points.
