not sure about that. Burge was directly behind him so he had to direct the header away from him. Don't think that was as easy as it looked.

Might be the camera angle then. On the iFollow it looked like he got a clean head to it before getting caught. Has to either be brave and hit the target or make it impossible for Burge to get there without going through him first and giving the ref a decision to make.

No-have to be 1m away from the wall when the ball is kicked.

Their forum is in absolute meltdown so funny to read

where as when we're losing its an oasis of reasoned argument and measured clam on here!!

 

[sw88]

So frustrating watching games when it’s just Baka up top!
Thought he should have done better with his chance that led to the corner we scored from, then that header at the death!

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Really should be 2 or 3 up here but so far a disciplined display with the occasional lapse.

 

[Liquid Gold]

Willis is having a great game. Good job the rest of them aren’t. We look better. Hold out like this and we’ll win.

Why have refs been painting 2 lines then?

I thought the 1 on 1 was his worse miss. There was just no conviction in the shot.

How long have Oxford hated us?! Bloody hell

 

[Hobo]

Dig in second half City.

 

[Deleted member 2477]

I think they must be watching a different game in sunderland lol



the same every f***ing time, they dont create f***ing shit but gets a lucky goal anyway


Being beaten by a team that don’t even have a stadium. Utter incompetence from the top down.

F***k off man, We've been the better team so far

Probably since April 2017

I hated Crewe from the point they beat us in the semis a few years back

Oh yeah, I forget dis

 

[ccfcway]

big 15 mins, need to continue the momentum and pressing

 

[sw88]

Is Dabo carrying a knock? Doesn’t seem to be moving much at all!

 

[chiefdave]

Question for anyone there. After multiple occasions last season where they claimed away fans were chucking stuff at the home fans below them have they put netting up?

 

[sw88]

think you mean 45! And they’re massive

Might have been when he got wiped out in the first half.

No.

Hiwula & O’Hare will add energy they will struggle with I Hope we don’t leave it too late

 

[sw88]

Baka forces Willis to track back, and he gets injured in the process (Willis that is)

 

[BornSlippySkyBlue]

Keep ball

 

[Nick]

Great play then, ball into baka with a good touch to Westbrooke but his pass in wasnt the best.

 

[jordan210]

Not a huge amount of space down the wings today

 

[Great_Expectations]

Willis down injured = doesn’t fancy it.

 

[ccfcway]

agree next 45 is big, but was thinking they would come out all blazing at the start of this half

 

[cc84cov]

Anyone missed Willis who’s watching the game ?

 

[Esoterica]

I genuinely doubt there has ever been a team more comfortable in possession at the back than us at this level. Marosi, the back 3 and then Mason-Walsh-Kelly-Dabo are so good on the ball.

 

[Alkhen]

Any hoying?

 

[Nick]

Bakayoko gets taken out from behind but not even a booking?

 

[ccfcway]

how is that not a yellow ?

 

[Nick]

The ref needs to get a grip on the game.

I do - was always a fan of Willis - gutted when he left
