No other side seems to do it our way.
I was about to post that Oxford are bound to score as we canāt win a game like this after so many draws or defeats the easy way.
We were head and shoulders above them but win by just one goal.
Anyway, Iām ābuzzingāš |

I see what he means because there were glimpses of what weāve done in games before. We get scrappy and careless.
An example is Key who dinked a very simple pass straight to one of theirs which in fairness heād not done all game (though ifpd argue he neatly gave the ball away before we scoredš).
We have to set up tactically and attitude wise on the button from ko now. No resting on laurels or allowing them to play around us. Get stuck in for 45 mins+ |

Why do you say such stupid things? Like your claim that Wales will vote for independence.
Donāt you realise that just because itās what you want itās not necessarily going to happen?
Now Harris may win but to say itās in the bag shows a lack of awareness in the subject. |

It will probably come down to the MPs word against the victimās. Witnesses may be key in it all especially if they heard the conversation. |

Yes, the owners are the cause of the mess. My agreement with Res was in his belief that Cullen doesnāt have the ability at this level. I certainly donāt agree with his defence of the owners. It puzzles me.
We are in a mess and I fear that this season may see us drop down the league unless there are three worse teams than us. At the moment, having gone 5 games without scoring, the table is fibbing a bit! |

Someoneās worked us out
For me it those stats reveal poor quality in the final third. Consistently. They've actually averaged more than 66% possession across their last 5 games - including 67.6% at Blackburn and 66.1% at Sheffield United.
But they failed to score in any of them.
A cursory look at their forum will tell you that whilst they have a solid defence and clearly players who are comfortable on the ball, their attack is blunt (and they are already desperate for January reinforcements).
It looks as though, if you get in front they'll struggle to break you down. They haven't scored a 2nd half goal since 17th August ffs (or a 2nd half goal, away from home, all season).
āThey're a poor Championship side, at this point. In fact, since Luke Williams took over there, only Cardiff and Plymouth (of the sides who were in The Championship last season āand this) have picked up fewer points in that time.
I think they'll continue to do their possession thing - and that suits us. Let them have the ball, do their tippy tappy 'we're better footballers' nonsense and then hit them when we get the chance.
2-0. Tyler early on from distance, and a 2nd later on from Ruben against his manager crush.
Both goals 'against the run of play'...ā |

I disagree with Res on loads of issues but in fairness he hits this one squarely on the nail. |

Glad for him but not so much for us! |
