Forrester booked for complaining to the ref. How's that any different to their complaints earlier in the match that went unpunished?

0-0, probably a fair result. Entertaining match for a 0-0. Another match where we're not scoring against Okonkwo.

Few underperformers today, Collins and JDC for instance.

No doubt we'll end up seeing these in the play offs.

Point gained - we'll be happier with it than them, I suspect.

Not sure I agree that 0-0 was a fair result. Wrexham were the better side.

That’s also an incredibly harsh assessment of Collins.

Fair result—and one idve taken. Collins and CMG’s chances were golden; they had a couple, too. Forrester superb and Morley and Sheehan put a right shift in. Schuey, again, responded well to what was in front of him: Schön and Murphy struggled, and both subbed when it was needed. It’ll do, but a little bit more quality, and we could’ve had ‘em.

Way happier. They are having a dodgy run. I’m sure if offered 0-0 Schuey would have snatched your hand off.

I think we were probably just about second best in fairness. But they missed their three clear chances and let’s be fair restricting them to three is a decent effort. We had two.

Don't remember him winning the ball much up top and bringing others into play.

Very poor all round game but he does have the ability and it almost came off with the best chance we had in the game.

Didn't see much from McAtee either.

Game would've been much better had Schon passed to Collins

Proper football game. A great point for us against one of the Divisions top and well financed team with a good manager playing at home. We earned this point. Could have won it in the end but their keeper made a top top save from Collins to turn that around the post. I thought it was well struck and in.

Southwood really didnt have a save to make but was excellent with his feet and distribution. Wrexham missed some glorious chances but our defence led by Forester was tough.

Morley played well, Sheehan struggled. I was very impressed with Carlos Mendez Gomes when he came on. He turned the game with his dribbling and directness. Randal also made a difference but he and Collins need to get on the same wave length.

A point against a strong team who are playing at home is no disgrace. MoTM... Forrester. He is a proper defender.

Forrester has been a revelation. He and Johnstone look rock solid.
