For every game like tonight there’s games like West Brom away, where we score our only shot on target and bag a 1-0 win. We can talk about and debate referees etc, but there are things you can control, such as team selection, subs and finishing your chances. #dcfcfans
With the amount of attacking 'talent' on show, especially 2nd half, it's ridiculous we didn't take one of those chances. Ultimately it's another 1 shot on target game away from home, which doesn't tell the full story, but it's points that matter at this stage of the season. #dcfcfans
Our team is starting to look like an episode of casualty. #dcfcfans
Only thing guaranteed tonight will be a booking for Travis, although it could well be his sort of game. #dcfcfans
Both sides in decent form. Both probably overachieving, albeit one more than the other. Very good home form v very good away form. Should be a belter. Can’t afford a slow start though, as unlike in previous games against poorer sides, we won’t get away with it. #dcfcfans
A wins a win but when a centre-back gets motm against an already relegated side at home and the manager has to get a fan out of the crowd to start the bounce, you know it’s been underwhelming. A better side would’ve beaten us. Onto a very tough Tuesday, where we’ll need to be better. #dcfcfans
Good luck to anyone trying to take a bottle into the ground today. Ridiculous. #dcfcfans
Chance to close the gap with sides not playing, although how much we’ll be able to read into things based on todays result remains to be seen. Full midweek slate and the fact we then don’t play until the Monday mean it could look entirely different again in a week or so. #dcfcfans
Games against Sheffield Wednesday will always take me back to that game in lockdown where we survived. Just. Had a headache for days after that. If we’re brutally honest, we should’ve gone that season and couldn’t have had any complaints if we did. Kept us in the Champ and Rooney in a job. #dcfcfans
Bigger picture stuff after todays results…the status quo has been maintained, which shows how important the win was. Today and next weekend are our most favourable fixtures from the remaining games, with much tougher games after. Some are in cup action next weekend too. #dcfcfans
Eustace and his staff will probably wish they could play Blackburn every week. Back-to-back favourable home matches after back-to-back difficult away games probably balance themselves out. #dcfcfans
Needed that win. They had a chance just after HT to make it 2-0 but we took control from then. Beat a side that were pretty poor and beat them well. Thought Murkin was the best player on the pitch. Gave it a real go 2nd half and will need to do that until May. #dcfcfans
Expecting a much more conventional line-up in defence today, although it wouldn’t surprise me to see another curveball. Vickers at right-back anyone..? #dcfcfans
Spring has certainly not sprung yet. Chilly and wet lunchtime match against a side in a better place than a few weeks ago. Cashin return. Expect them to wind Travis up. First goal crucial. Reunions everywhere. IF we harbour hopes of a top 6 push it’s a game we probably have to win. #dcfcfans
We had injuries, with a much weaker squad overall, and players playing through the pain barrier last season. All clubs do and we're not unique. There was very little sympathy then and, if we're honest, just questioning of the coaching staffs training methods. #dcfcfans
Played better than Saturday, although not hard to. Created quite a few chances. Missed most of them. Conceded goals at bad times. Questionable line-up 1st half. Big Pat a positive but we can't become a one-man team, especially with the money spent. #dcfcfans
Anyone remember those clean sheet days...? #dcfcfans
Bonkers match. #dcfcfans
After all the hard work to get back into the game and have opportunities to push on, that is a shocking goal to concede. #dcfcfans
Quick response. And yes, it's a left-back. #dcfcfans
To be fair, if you said we'd score an own-goal before the game the odds would've suggested it'd probably be a left-back. #dcfcfans
And so it begins . . . #dcfcfans
One positive could be that if we’re looking at the line-up and are not sure about the defence in particular then the same could be said for the opposition. That said, it could go completely pear-shaped or it could be inspired. There’ll (hopefully) be some reasons for it. #dcfcfans
Not expecting much football to be played tonight by either side unless their pitch (based on what I saw on Saturday) has improved. You could argue that may suit us as our strengths are set-pieces and putting balls into the box. Need a response after Saturday. Probably a change or two. #dcfcfans
Late goals (when they count) are marvellous.
A disappointing performance. Didn’t do anywhere near enough. We were wide open at the back in the 2nd half, only at 1-0 still, and if they had made better decisions it could’ve been worse. Taking the captain off in stoppage time to blood a youngster? No idea on that. #dcfcfans
Probably no surprise he’s brought Travis back in and kept Szmodics in the side if we’re honest. Tough back-to-back away games will test our very good away form. Bigger picture is there’s an almighty fight for (probably) one play-off place between around 10 teams. #dcfcfans
Forgettable 1st half. Started the 2nd with more purpose and got a deserved win. Played some actual football again which was nice. Limited them to not much. Gives everyone a boost ahead of back-to-back away games. Even got Morris back on the pitch too. A big positive. #dcfcfans
A game today where both sides will fancy their chances. Both sides in similar form. A not great home side against a not great away side. Last 6 and 10 suggests we're fairly evenly matched, especially as they'll go level on points with us with victory at PP. #dcfcfans
A day full of hope, expectation and excitement, that usually ends in deflation, heartbreak and feeling let down. But enough about the football, it’s also Valentine’s Day apparently. #dcfcfans
