Oxford away match thread. - Page 5

We can all argue the pro's & cons of team selection, formation & game-plans till the cows come home.
At the end of the day all that really matters in football are goals - preferably in the opponents net!
We were overrun by Wigan & Oxford because their attacks were faster & more decisive than ours.
Even against Morecambe, despite 72% possession & leading twice, indecision cost us 2 points.
We must take last night on the chin in the hope JC can re-motivate our battered team confidence for Saturday.
Yesterday is gone. Tomorrow is another day.
COYR!

Well over the line Cashy, pity the liner did not see it!!

Watching the lowlights a few times, the one thing sticking out - which will not win me any prizes is - we CANNOT defend!

I seem to remember that Tony came on at half time in the Wigan game and played well - influencing the game?

I thought he played on the left? He played on the right against Oxford and seemed to be out of position for a couple of the goals??

Just what I picked up from a few minutes on the television - I appreciate that a game is 90 minutes

Sherring looks lost also.

I have every faith in Coley sorting it out, but it is how quickly that will define our season

Just one question Joe, who's Tony?

Barrow played two keepers last night! Only one in the nets, though: https://www.barrowafc.com/news/2021/...hotel-stadium/

For some reason, they only had four subs on the bench.
