The Championship, on the evidence I've encountered at LR this season really is crap. One powder-puff team after another turns up in hideous away-kit (last night; second to Leicester so far) carves our defence apart a few times in the first half, misses most or all of their guilt edged chances and we get one more goal than them in the second. It's boring, although I do like the winning feeling.

The Doncaster game. They really should have been 4-0 up, truly lamentable finishing scuppered that.

Hastings, you say "another team would have punnished us for this", and I know what you're getting at, but which one!? Even Leicester only scored one, which meant our usual 'score one more than them' was still eminently feasible, it just didn't come off.

Last night. They had two maybe three chances that should, or like the bar strike could, have bulged the onion bag but this is a really low standard of football. And then Greeno did a great job with anything else that came near.

It's preposterous what these blokes get paid, yeh they can all do it better than I ever could, but it's really Not Very Good.

Away fans summed it up-they were crap but we were not much better
Carroll seems to be abig liability and loosing faith in him fast-what does Harry see in him?
Great to see Henry get on the score sheet and put in a shift in the defence
Austin wa a star but think injurys are catching up with him and he may not be fit enough for Burnley
Liked both Traroe and Phillips maruding runs but why make us suffer with the late jitters
If Bolton had a bit more faith they could have had a share of the points
Roll on Burnley-a real test of what we are made of!

A good result, how good we will know later on! A very open entertaining game in which we started very well.
Just as well we didn't play BAE at rb as they targeted him and ala Mackie forced him into errors one of which led to the third goal.
Good performances all round and two debut goals and a first for Dunne.
Doyle had a superb start to the game, worked hard and was very good in the air. Understandably, he tired a bit in the later stages. A very good signing on this performance.
Maiga, well he scored and won a few headers. Needs to get to know his teammates and didn't get that long.
Defensively, we are now making mistakes and the early season solidity, and luck, has gone.
Yet another serious injury, this time to Phillips. Hope that Hoillett, who looks much better on the right, and Traore can recover from their knocks otherwise we will only have SWP as a winger!

What a great game! Both teams put in a perfromance and there were plenty of us biting our nails before Maigia got the equaliser.
Great to see a team come and play for a win. Our luck ran out there are other times when away teams doninate but cannot convert there chances-this time they did
Surprised Burnley scored with their first attack-Grren could have doen better
Doyle was impressive liked his attitude and stamina. Barton coming
back made a real difference
A reals urprise with Dunne making it 2-1 but he has had a number of opportunites to open his account in other matches-notably Burnely away
But again Burnely came back and got the equaliser with a nother fine toe poke
Second half dominate dby Burnley-like what BEA was trying to do but credit to the attacker his chasing down forced BAE into a mistake and we were trailing
Hoilet was gettting a lot of stick from where I was sitting but his persistence paid off with his attach down the right and the cross gave Maigia a perfect debut
Harry seems to have bought well and they paid him back today but we need to tighten up at the back
Impressed with Barton,Traore and Dunne and they new players were good
Excellent game and a fair result

what a flat performance after the two cup games and I think KH must take major responsibility for it.Why play a lone striker at home and then when we go behind he ends up with 3 strikers on the pitch. The miss by Donnelly in the first half says everything about him as a player......

Excellent game. Electric from the start. The draw was a fair result.
The Rangers of old would have not come back from 1-2 down but to fight back twice is a credit to the team spirit Harry has created.

Doyle looked good. Not so sure about Maiga though. Junior had one of his better games for us too.

Looks like Leicester are pulling even further away so it is probable that in reality we are all playing for 2nd place.

Repeat today's performance at Derby and we will be good for a point or even more.

Of course I meant fight back from 2-3 down!! Doh!!!!

Burnley played us on a good day . Austin unfit and losing. Phillips after 5 min , Doyle not quite match fit , while they enjoy a settled side . Dissapointed to not win after leading twice , some good finishing and a defensive error means 2 home points dropped for me.

Good result under the circumstances. Not the best time to play the Burnley with a solid strike force. While it would have been good to win, the draw was fair given the changes that were forced on us and the unfamiliarity of the new team members. if we can build from here, it will be good.
as for BAE, wtf & then nearly lost it for us in the dying minutes ..........
