Oxford Utd V Swansea City White R’s Match day Chat 18:12 - Jul 21 with 14583 viewsWhiterockin

Will this be the first "serious" friendly where we start off with possibly our best starting 11 and tweak it as we go on.

Maybe so Keith, but still early to making any kind of judgement

You give it out, you take it back it`s all part of the game

I am flabbergasted, how can you defend that? yeah its pre season, and yeah its a "friendly" but come on, where was the creativity? where was anything? i for one do not think this is us holding back, we looked awful, sorry this is not a good looking squad, only time will tell

Imo Oxford looked sharper an a split second ahead of us in the first half.

Then after we got the better of it they sat back and defended stoutly.

You can tell it was a the first game together of the more experienced players in the first half, it got better in the second as a few young uns came on and quickened it up.

What is glaring is the lack of a lwb, hopefully we get this buchanan fella, joey will make a difference so I'm not worried at all, if we lose our next two games then I might start.

You will be hard to find a more positive person than me, but that was dire. Hopefully Tuesday will be better, I wonder how the home crowd will react if its not.

There must be a background story to that performance - something really off about the whole evening - didn't look anything like a group of people enjoying themselves. Do some digging Keith.

90% probably will just shrug and go about their day as it’s only pre season and results mean nothing.

Looks like my choice of watching the darts has paid off this evening.

Missed the first half and switched it off after half hour, the stream was shocking and us worse, should have been good enough to have beaten a league one Oxford regardless if they were committed, the question should be asked if Oxford were committed why wasn't an established championship side just as committed especially with a few new players playing.

Not saying that its worrying or anything, but they need to put this game to bed and regather our thoughts and move forward.

In the pre-season of 2010/11, we lost 2-0 to Hereford and drew 1-1 with Haverfordwest.

I repeat, pre-season results mean absolutely nothing.

Pain or damage don't end the world. Or despair, or f*cking beatings. The world ends when you're dead. Until then, you got more punishment in store. Stand it like a man... and give some back.

Agree results mean nothing, but IMO shape, effort and balance does. The players on the pitch should have performed better.

Nothing matters until there are points at stake. Nothing.

I think it will matter enough to up the anti regarding another keeper.

I think genuinely most are disappointed regards the effort, and the somewhat cumbersome performance. But not to worry, you can watch the Swans again tomorrow 👍

And that’s what matters.

It's quite telling that there are a lot of names conspicuous by their absence during most of pre-season who have filled their boots tonight.

Pathetic really, but we do have, sadly to say, quite a lot of pathetic people in our fanbase.
