We are due at least a basic level of competence

I think Josh Key needs an extended break to work on his game. I don’t recall him being such a defensive liability when he joined us. A coaching intervention might turn his form around.. he has been catastrophic recently,

Great anecdote but wrong season - he was 62 at the time :cool:

The Swansea he used to know hadnt beaten Pompey since 1960 🧐

He didnt change shape though - we continued with a back 4 and Canango at RB instead of a knackered Galbraith. The point was we stepped out more as a back 4 and midfield. Definitely an improvement in such a short time.

Ronald is a total conundrum. Busts his ass and is fantastic covering for his full back. Which incidentally makes Key seem even worse! On the other hand his finishing, and particularly crossing is so bad as to be laughable. He literally either chooses the wrong option or executes terribly 95% of...

Wait until they start with the 2 minute warning mate!

I literally look at Detroit from my house - across the Detroit river it is less than a mile away. Ford Field Comerica park and the LCA are less than 5 miles away. Was a time i crossed about 10 times a month - now the border is much more hostile, US prices have equalized with Canadian - and no...

I think a lot of posters have unreasonabe expectations. Winning championship games is hard, winning by multiple goals even harder. This is why there is about 12 points between the relegation zone and the play offs. Edging close games is the difference between the top and bottom. Togetherness...

I have a few of these recently - i am blaming the prostate!

Put so much in Saturday the physios have probably called this one. I expect to see a ton of action from the bench. On a side note - this is a crucial game for Idah - he needs to impress to really demonstrate his value to the squad. At times he looks quick, mobile and talented. Without the ball...

I live in Windsor ON - a 4 hour drive south of Toronto. Today we have had 5 inches of snow and temperatures ranging from day time highs of -2 to -10. In the summer we can get weeks of 35 degrees and humidity throught the roof because of the great lakes. In short it can be uncomfortable both...

Parker has looked decent when given an opportunity- now might be his time

3 minutes is enough time to grab a hot dog as well

In my opinion, the tactical approach results from an inability to critically think. Great that we are attacking relentlessly, but the key to the game is to do to the opposition the thing that they least want. Classic example was Starc batting out time and keeping in them in the field, so that...

Lots to digest and lots of improvements- 2 questions What does it say when you bring off uour striker and opt to play without one instead of Idah? What the hell has happened to Cullen? AlwYs been streaky - but he looks shocking right now - at home on the international stage but out of his depth...

Turn your back for two minutes, and the under 18 team is full of names you don’t recognize. Any posters able to suggest some stars within this group?

Croatia have a production line of world class youngsters, and have for decades. If only we had someone in the club with some insight into Croatian football.

Oxfords last 3 games (before today) were a draw V Boro, a draw v Norwich and a victory over Ipswich. They are not the cream of the division - but they are quite hard to beat. In fact they have only been beaten by 2 goals (never more) in 3 games this Championship season including today!

Aren't we allowed to have nice things? With that ref totally bending us over the bins and a hard to beat tough and aggressive opponent... I thought we were very good value! Go on give us a grin you miserable bugger!
