We were all expecting three points from that match but make no mistake the Championship is full of teams who can stop us in our tracks in the promotion race.
No doubt we were the more polished team but for the last 30 minutes or so Blackpool smothered us and had the best of the game. Not sure what when wrong, other than one of our trade mark give away pass at the back, but we did look tired in the second half.
We were all over them until the medical emergency and that gave their manager time to change how they played. He was astute enough to stop our dominance from that moment on.
On another day, we win 3-0. I'm not that concerned. Credit to Blackpool for improving after the delay, but they didn't deserve anything from that.
Given the 2nd half performance, I think it was 1 point saved. Blackpool are a poor team but Fulham were no better .

Can't argue with this at all.

+1
After the medical stoppage we were very disappointing & poor.
Should be winning these types of games if we are to achieve automatic promotion.
Could easily have lost so frustrated we did not win but grateful we did not lose.
It happens, but not very often with this team. We move on.
We created some good chances. We started out like a Porsche, but ended up like a stalled Skoda.
Poor stuff today, a lot of stray passes and little accuracy. I was happy to get out of that with a draw in the end, we looked so wobbly across the back line.
Days like this happen, hopefully the guy who needed medical attention is alright and we move on.

Not me, in the prediction thread I'd gone for a score draw.

I reckon we ended up more like my grandpa's old lawn mower
