Hopefully only a dislocated arm and he’ll be back soon

Oxford are making this game so so ugly.

We’re not helping, though. Not moving the ball quickly enough when we have it.

Oxford are making this game so so ugly.

I think we're OK with that, especially being in the lead. Bit more streetwise under Frank.

 

[Great_Expectations]

Sheaf, Grimes, Eccles - who’s playing as the most offensive?

It should be solid, disciplined and two of the three are especially great on the ball, but definitely not a Rudoni like for like.

Wouldn’t be surprised to see Allen or Paterson at 60/65 minutes.

 

[PVA]

Eccles and Bidwell poor, Simms a total mixed bag, everyone else doing alright. Need to be better in the second half though.

 

[ptr]

Would get Paterson on for Eccles at some point. See what he can do in the 10.

Also, Leeds can fuck off.

 

[Liquid Gold]

Oxford are very League 1. That they’re essentially safe already shows how many wank teams there are this year.

 

[JulianDarbyFTW]

Perhaps Sheaf is going to be the new Lampard, thrusting into the box from behind

Eccles was the further forward in the final moments of the half, I'd be tempted to give 20 mins on the left for Haji and move EMC inside.

 

[Gint11]

Good, solid half. Sat back a little towards the back end of the half. We get the 2nd it’s game over.

 

[Tommo1993]

Hope Rudoni’s shoulder doesn’t leave him out for long, that’d be a massive miss.

Think Sakamoto should be hooked. Stupid booking and he’s still looking clumsy off the ball. Wouldn’t give him much longer if anything.

Christ just seen the challenge by the mile all goalkeeper in the fa cup

Surely has to be Allen not Sheaf. 3 defensive midfielders on?

The desire to shoe horn him in the next few weeks is going to be interesting.

 

[Captain Dart]

City are not dominating play as much as last week, I can see this developing into squeaky bum time for last 10 mins.
We seriously need another goal but we're only getting half chances at the moment.

 

[TomRad85]

Are Leeds on the beer already? Should be swatting West Brom ffs.

 

[covcity4life]

Decent first half. We can do better though . Looking forward to seeing sheaf get 45 in. Hopefully rudoni won't miss many games.

Worried about saka doing something dumb and getting another yellow. Maybe get wright on with 25 mins to go either in left or right.

One more goal for us will kill them off I think

Leeds have enough in the bench to win that game

I can see BTA or Paterson coming on for Saka to make sure he doesn't get sent off.

People missing out today and there are 5 rows tarp'd off at the front

Shame and completely bizarre

 

[Gleneagles65]

Why not have a go there, Ephron?

What was his answer?

 

[jordan210]

Eccles, Sheaf and Grimes could be a bit to defensive. as not sure the plan was for all of them to be on together

There's also a whole stand missing......

 

[Tommo1993]

Anyone seen the challenge on Mateta from the Millwall keeper? Guy needs locking up.

Plus the whole block to the right there. Easily another 500 available.

Least the supporters clubs get their guaranteed tickets though.

100% if that Allison it's not a red. LiVARpool

 

[ccfc922]

Seem to recall some people wanting us to build a similar ground (with 4 sides) with 15-20k... so we could get the odd mushty wedding in a function room.

 

[ccfc922]

Yellow

Games gone.

 

[Nick]

Can't figure out the midfield now.

 

[BackRoomRummermill]

Early goal will settle us all - first message with new computer

 

[BackRoomRummermill]

Grimes such a complete player

 

[StrettoBoy]

Yes, I can see him doing that.

Before hitting it 15 feet over the bar or 20 feet wide.
