A draw is a draw?

What's the difference between drawing at home to one team that you'd hope you're much better than and drawing at home to another team that's almost of identical stature to the first?

Apparently, being ahead against one side and them getting an equalizer in the last few minutes is demoralizing... but doing the reverse against the other side is 'morale boosting', and brings out the positive in some people (going by a lot of posts on here).


It's a funny old world, right enough.

One of the issues people have had is that the players are a bunch of *****bags who have no fight in them. That was exemplified by them defecating the bed on Saturday.

Last night, the players showed that they did have some fight and bottle. People are happier about this, than when they showed that maybe they didn't.

Both are poor results. One at least shows a bit of character.

Similar the way the team that equalises late-on in a derby is generally the one with happier fans at getting a draw, people left a little more upbeat than they did having blown a 2 goal lead. It’s natural.

Still both poor results I’d reiterate.

It's not an overcoat, it's a leather jacket.

And you never mentioned my cool hat!

psychologically coming back to get a draw is always better than the reversal.

If you actually think you look like Indiana Jones in that get up then you are only kidding yourself...more like a Penguin version of Christopher Biggins in "On Safari" from the 1980's
