"How we got something out of that us beyond me. Nigel Clough needs to have some harsh words with his forwards after the amount of chances they wasted.
As for us Kevin Nugent managed to out-Slade Russell Slade - getting absolutely battered for 90 (Or in this case 99) minutes and somehow coming away with a result.I really, really hope we dont give that idiot the job."
"I've not laughed that hard at a last minute goal for us for ages, we bearly deserved anything from that second half but with ten men and playing shit and somehow got a draw. "
"If Nugent gets the job after that I will be fuming, we did the job first half, but that's not the way to defend a 1-0 lead, we bearly strung two passes together and Sheff Utd battered us. Then McAnuff got a stupid second yellow.The ref I thought was a bit pants.Awful from Sheff Utd at the end, a free header for Vincelot."
"Not great to manage to throw away a win in stoppage time so badly to the point we're celebrating nicking back a point"
"we did the job in the first half and scored from our lucky break - An awful mistake from Howard. Neither team was great.
Second half, Nugent showed his lack of tactical knowledge that a manager needs. We really struggled to defend that 1-0, McAnuff losing his head for a stupid second booking made things worse and we eventually caved in. Sheff Utd will be just as gutted, to lose that goal against ten men with the last kick of the game was just as criminal from them. Campbell Ryce gave us problems when he came on. Just seen that Sheff Utd should've had a penalty and their was a foul on Vincelot for their first goal. Swings and roundabouts.........."
"We had 2 shots today and 2 goals"
"poor tactics - meant we were under pressure too much- sheffield united are not much and we should have tried to attack not defend."
"It's hard to be disappointed with a draw, especially in those circumstances but we were rather poor for long periods of that game and the tactics employed by Nugent were pretty dire. I'm still yet to see anything from McAnuff or Henderson to suggest they're worth what they're allegedly being paid.Gary Woods MOTM, he kept us in it."
"Woods kept us in the game"
"Clarke should have been sent off"
"Sheffield Utd completely penned Orient in during the second half."
"First half - decent performance again ala Scunny and Daggers, got the goal and were on the money to keep Sheff U out to preserve our 1-0 lead. Second half - totally outplayed and Sheff U at least deserved something from the game with all they threw at us but quiet frankly our tactics were odd and invited then to do that. Until the goal I don't think we had a shot at goal in that second half. Fortunately a bullet header from the beaded wonder was immense and saved our blushes but probably just about some reward for the lads hard efforts given the two goals in one min to stun us and the shocking performance of the ref - Jobi should never have been sent off"
"As usual Blades fans silent until scoring, and then the customary Alamo at the end. sual dog sh!t of a referee for us against the Blades. Worst I have seen for a long time"
"Some handbags outside the supporter's coaches after the game.Bitter United fans reacting to Orient fans singing. Nothing derogatory in what was sung, just unhappy Blades"
"Ref was a complete homer. Their first should have been disallowed"
"Listening live was great. Memories of Oxford United promotion day"
