Whilst I agree with the statement that the team do not have a divine right to win all games, I do think you and smudgie misunderstand. The majority of fans on this site are not being negative, but just bemoaning the fact about squad rotation, lack of protection for the players as at times it was like watching tag team wrestling from the 1960's with a ref who could not or would not intervene. Personally, I am glad we gained a point (or did we lose 2?), we still have our unbeaten home record of 9 games or more (not sure on this one). Cashy, I believe has hit the nail on the head, we have a big squad, so lets utilise it.
Oxford United were not well organised today, they kicked, pulled and pushed through our players. My one criticism of this team is the lack of height up front and I stand by my previous statement of 2 OU players should have been shown straight reds not yellows in the first half.
