I did zoom in and HDMI to TV but the resolution was low due to it being from a small window.
I was just bemused as to why it can’t be broadcast on ifollow but can be streamed through betting websites and then not full screen. Just seems totally arbitrary.
I could but the regulations could also allow people to stream the game properly instead of all these nonsensical rules.
Yes at least a few hundred in the stand to our left booing, I'm guessing that they normally sit in the Kop. I don't normally bother about what's happening to other clubs but I really hope they go down and take the wankers with them.
The decision to play a near-full strength team against Oxford looks even more strange in hindsight.
Phew thanks guys for letting me know...I thought it was me being useless with the site !!
Didn’t wanna risk another Wrexham.
plus, sometimes it’s nice to give a club smaller than you a real tonking
Wow reading some of the comments on here you would have thought we have just lost 3-0 to a non league side.
That said a non league side would have had a better pitch.
The Ricoh even with the pests playing there was never that bad.

The difference is that we had a week to recover from that game and momentum going into the Leicester game was important.
Last night, we’ve had a difficult run of games and MR alluded to that catching up with a number of our players. We’ve got Bristol on Tuesday and Norwich away on Saturday. It’s a tough run.
Thankfully, Wednesday will probably put out a weakened side out again and at home, we’ll blow them away.
Hopefully, we have 1-2 signings to blood in too.
So you're prioritising the FA cup as our main objective this season?
Even stranger.
The extra game is fine. Not forgetting that we have bigger concerns this season. But last night showed why we are recruiting. Lose players for whatever reason and we are going to play like we did last night.
You’re joking and you know you are. The Hillsborough pitch was shite last weekend and a little worse last night. Absolutely nowhere near the worst condition our pitch was in though.
Its a term only gimps use.
The lack of complaint from their defender tells me that he thought he got away with one.
Personally I didn't think it was a pen in real time (thought it was shoulder to shoulder like you), the replay it looked more of a pen, their lad tries to knick the ball away and misses... got away with one
I took this as a good result. It’s difficult to go to the same place in a week and get two wins. We’ll get rid of them in the replay and be in the 5th round of the cup and in the play off mix. What’s the problem?
From stood watching,it seemed like we didn’t get a corner past the front post till nearly half time.
This conversation that we were playing prime Barcelona is odd. Even Leicester that you are now comparing them to is severly wide of the mark. That team are top of the league (we beat them anyway). It's another odd comparison. SWFC have won 6 games all season.
We take our chances and our goalkeeper does his job and we win that easily. There's many games where the opposition are good and coming away with a point is commendable (see Leeds away). This was not one of those games.
Their form might have gotten better, but they're still in the relegation zone, still played a weakened team, and we still beat them the week before without really getting out of third gear. We're still in the hat but anyone taking this draw as an outright success given the circumstances I just don't understand. We should have beaten them.
It seems there's a few people that can't critique this game, the team, or the manager. It makes them nervous for whatever reason. I would say that category is more applicable to needing a reality check. Someone even said I wanted Robins sacked because I said I thought he got it wrong yesterday. Even you are throwing something in about Allen, of to which I said nothing about.

This is only the league but looks like we tend to concede late in both halves. It's definitely felt more often this season.
Not compared to last season, no. However, it would be well up there with previous years when Wasps played there.
It was horrendous. Look at the Godden and Palmer shots. Bobbles all over the place.
We need to hit them hard from the start, so mostly first teamers to start and only 1 or 2 changes after that, not wholesale subs.
whether you’re bothered by the cup or not, and let’s be honest most if not all would take play offs / promotion over an FA cup win I’d imagine, the one good thing about the draw and bringing them back to the CBS is that the club now has a massive opportunity to make a stand and show support to KP
after what’s happened over the last week, in both games, I’d imagine there will still be some media interest - depending on results in other ties we may even get a TV slot, but even if not we can still, as a club and as fans individually, all show up

I don’t have any stats to back this up, but feels like these stats would probably be reflected similarly across most championship teams as a whole. The games just seem to really open up last 20 mins as subs are made/players get tired.
I saw Leicester fans decrying how many late goals they concede too. Think it’s just nature of the league.
EDIT: just out of interest it does seem we’re in the lower half of the table for goals conceded 76+ mins on, but we’re also one of the highest scorers for that period too(joint second behind Leicester). Seems most clubs are in the 8-12 goals conceded range (including us), and it is the highest scoring period of championship matches by quite a margin. Our numbers are quite consistent with the Leicesters, Southamptons, Ipswich’s which is positive.

I somehow got it full screen on a laptop for the second half, which I then HDMI'd to a TV. It was OK, about the picture quality of the ITV4 (nonHD) EFL highlights.

Choosing to see the positive that it's an opportunity to get more minutes for players that need it. If we put out a similar team to last night, preferably not in that honking formation, at home then its more than enough to get past these.

Still don’t get why we didn’t go 433 with the same players:
Wilson
Lats Kitching Binks Dasilva
Eccles Torp Sheaf
Simms Godden Palmer
I get Lats and Kitching aren’t exactly what we want or Simms and Palmer, but at least everyone should know their roles.

Just remembered, shout out to the guy who was marching round the upper tier yelling at people towards the end of the game, frothing at the mouth and a bright shade of red.
