He's a class above Championship level, I've said previously that bids will come in for him in this window... hope we can hold on to him for this season at least.On tonight's showing Wright can play in the Premier league
Stand by my in game comments anyway tbf. They threatened very little but when they did the defence looked piss weak.Hindsight brigade are on fire tonight. Of course there is gonna be reactive comments DURING THE GAME. Stupid cunts.
We looked fine attacking but what a couple of soft goals we conceded.Good morning Sky Blue Family.
What an emotional thing it is watching the club you love. Some of our football was breathtaking last night and a joy to watch. It's such a shame we continue to give soft goals away.
I'm not going to apologise for my lucky,lucky comment but do accept it was a massive overreaction at a time when I thought we'd blown 3 points. I posted earlier that it was a daft comment and took it back.
It's such an emotional roller coaster during games that it brings out the good, bad and plain daft in all of us. Plain daft in my case last night.
It's gonna be a brilliant season but please sort out the defence.
PUSB
I thought Oxford looked ok at least passed it around rather than doing a Rotherham type hoof styleAfter sleeping on it, I’m pleased we (Oxford) played you early. If you don’t finish in the top 6 or can step up to become an automatic, then we are in for a hard season. For us, although I’m gutted you took all 3 points, I think it will be an eye opening lesson for us as to how big the gulf in quality is between League One and the Championship.
Our spending on players is in the region of £300-400k is completely dwarfed by your players worth, someone on here said you had CB’s worth £6.5 million sitting on the bench! Hopefully we’ll pick up a couple more before the window closes.
A great crowd, much better than when we were plying in L1.
You can expect a season comparable to our own first at this level I think. Trying to hit teams on the counter and seize on mistakes is the right approach, and at least some of your players will adapt to the level with more time.After sleeping on it, I’m pleased we (Oxford) played you early.

Brannigan is so confident isn't he, little sod!You can expect a season comparable to our own first at this level I think. Trying to hit teams on the counter and seize on mistakes is the right approach, and at least some of your players will adapt to the level with more time.
It’s a marathon not a sprint in this league
A player who should settle in this league. It should really have been another 6-2 though!Brannigan is so confident isn't he, little sod!
You looked alright, I think you’ll be ok. What you don’t want to be come is that team that’s told “if you play like that - you’ll be ok”After sleeping on it, I’m pleased we (Oxford) played you early.

This sounds very similar to a lot of the posts on here when we first got promoted. I remember playing teams like Stoke and Bristol City, looking at how much they’d spent on players and thinking how are we supposed to compete. And that’s not even taking into account the parachute clubs who still blow the rest of us out of the water. First season is the most inportant. If you can stay up then you can start to build a platform. We’ve got to where we are now based purely on recruitment and flipping players for 10x what we paid for them, it’s the only way that a team can grow now.After sleeping on it, I’m pleased we (Oxford) played you early.

And we're going to get hammered by someone too if we don't sort out our defensive mid and cdm issues
We are going to concede more against the better sides imo. Hopefully when Sheaf returns the midfield is less open . A better side than Oxford would have run through Torp at will tonight. We're 2 additions away from being a complete side in this division but they are in key positions
Actually think Oxford Utd will be fine come end of the season. They are not a bad outfit. They sure have some fight in them. Good luck to them this season BUT not at our expense.
Yea I disagree they looked decent , stoke looked far better .Not with the grain at all, I think they’re nailed on going down.
Not with the grain at all, I think they’re nailed on going down. People are just doing that thing after a win where they go way past graciousness. They were shit.
They looked better organised and had some reasonable individuals - a lot better than when we played them in the cup. We could still have won by 3 comfortably though. Just praying MVE has an injury free season, though - he is different class.Not with the grain at all, I think they’re nailed on going down.

We literally gave 2 of the softest goals away you will see at this level and missed a hat full of chances 3 of which were on the line practically .
I'll never understand the criticisms about celebrating a win. If you can't enjoy it why would you even bother going?
It's pure and utter cope, we've ruined their weekend and the need lash out.I'll never understand the criticisms about celebrating a win. If you can't enjoy it why would you even bother going?
Congratulations. You were much the better team. Look forward to the return fixture at home when we’ve settled into the league.
A good three points for you against a team currently residing in the playoffs
