Very strong performance all round. Definitely deserved at least a point from the game and how that’s not a penalty I’ll never know. But it was a very good performance and an undeserved defeat.

Better team lost. Apart from the first 20 minutes of the second half we were the better team. Work rate fantastic, gutted that we couldn’t get anything. Mantom absolutely outstanding. Would love to have him beyond this season.
@samgoody23
Thought we were brilliant. Did not deserve a 1-0 loss at all. Plenty of positives to take.
@bradcooper71696
Good to see a strong performance away from home. Team should be pleased with how they played, just couldn’t quite get the goal or point we deserved. Blackburn should consider themselves lucky.
@ljarvis27
Played well and competed with the opposition for the majority of the game. Battered them in the final 15-20 minutes. Robinson came on and changed the game and there are many positives to take away from the game. It showed again that we can compete with the top teams.

Great team performance. Liked how Powell changed it in the second half and went for it. With the penalty shout and the goalmouth scramble we certainly deserved a point. Their fans calling for the final whistle shows how close we were. Great support as well.
@robertaskew7
Good performance against the league leaders and on another day we would have got a point. Encouraging for next season if we can get a goalscorer and/or a proper number 10. No offence Simon Cox, you know what I mean.
@mikehogg321
Blackburn were off colour and we fully warranted a draw. We looked transformed after the subs and with a bit more luck throughout the game we could have even snatched a memorable win. Defenders Turner, White, Coker and Demetriou along with Oxley were tremendous.
@shrimpersaway
Can’t complain about anything, except the penalty not being given. We were unlucky not to draw. Look forward to next season under Chris Powell.
@scotsshrimper
Every player gave their all and a draw would have been the fair result. Cox was definitely fouled in the box and to have the league leaders on the ropes like that shows what a good job Powell is doing. The fans were superb too.
@strutty27
We only really got going when they scored. In the last 5/10 minutes we could’ve had a couple of goals and nicked all three points.
