Yes they did appear to be taking time wasting to another level, but it's games like these that we need to win and overcoming these negative tactics is what's often required to separate teams chasing the top six and the pack below.
Struggling sides who are fighting relegation will be every bit as difficult opponents as those rivalling us for a play off spot.
Bolton are next up tomorrow night and believe me they will pose a threat. They have under performed for the majority of the season, but blew away Leeds 5-1 at Elland Road on Saturday.
Saturday we travel to Reading which has never been a happy hunting ground for us and this is followed by the visit of Forest in what could turn out to be the most important East Midlands Derby in decades.
We need to be totally on top of our game or we could be looking at a run of five successive defeats by the time we travel to Ipswich!
Now is not the time to lose form and it could prove costly at the end of the season.
We need our back four to hold tight, the midfield to step up and our strikers to take every chance. Play offs seem to be the realistic goal, but they are still a target rather than a formality!
