It had crossed my mind for a second to take him off, ... He had a long, hard summer, he didn't get much of a break and hasn't been at his sharpest. But you also know he's always liable to do something like that. |
It is a good away point for us with a clean sheet. We had the better of the half chances but you have to score a goal at home to take the points and we haven't done that. |
It's a nice boost to be off the bottom of the table. We know there is still a hard fight ahead of us but this one gives us a little bit of encouragement. |
It's not over though, there are still a lot of points to play for. |
It's very disappointing news because everything was agreed, |
Jonathan's been in the squad before when Steve McLaren had him, |
Judge us after eight games. |
Neil Clement and Curtis Davies are developing a good understanding as central defenders and getting to know each other's game well. |
No (will not be watching Soccer Saturday) that's agony. When the lads go to the monitors and say 'oh there's been a chance just gone' or if I listen to a match on the radio all you are doing is burning up nervous energy for me and I won't be in that frame of mind. |
No way did we deserve to lose, |
Paul Robinson's been terrific, he's just signed a new contract as well so he's on a high and he's kept all the boys on a high because of getting that goal, |

Paul was part of our game plan and he was probably our best player today. We switched off as soon as he went off. Just before that I could tell that Rooney was getting frustrated because Paul was getting to him. |
That's a good result for us. We got a few breaks today which we deserved for our second-half performance. |
That's why it's best for him to go out on a month's loan and play first-team football. I can gauge where his fitness is while he's playing for Forest. |
