    Ahh the good old days when stability in our club prompted belief success and players willing to put a shift in

    Agree with a lot of your post, but interestingly I spoke to Oxford fans after the game who very much rated Chicksen’s performance.

    For what it’s worth I thought the back 4, O’Donnell and Akpan has decent games.

    Anderson had a poor game, no hiding from that, but to rate him worse than Clarke?? He’s another scapegoat on here already. Also at least the guy had the decency to applaud supporters at the end. It was clear he recognised he’d had a poor game and undercame a hell of a lot of abuse from some of our “supporters”’at the front. Completely unecessary.

    Once the probability factor kicks in it's the beginning of the end. Its why the Walsall game was the last chance saloon. Honestly, any team that cannot that game with all the factors that were involved deserve to go down.

    100% agree, however this is all for a post mortem at the end of the season (unsure it’s even needed).

    As for Saturday, decision for Bowyer is should we go all guns blazing from the off and try get the goals we desperately need, or start a little cautious? Going for it will naturally leave a weak defence exposed, however being cautious risks us conceding and we know our challenges coming back from goals down.

    For me, we need to go at them from the off. The strengths we do have are some of our forward thinking players. Two up top, consider Miller back in the team, just not sure if Payne starts?

    Anderson isn't a loan player.

    No, we are actually outside of Malaga Mijas Cerros Del Anguila, lovely place. We are off to The Blue Marlin tonight, fish restaurant that appears highly rated.

    You
    I think you need a Spanish registered iFollow account. You can’t take your regular domestic account on holiday and pay for the game.

    Im genuinely starting to believe this is rest for Payne and he’ll be back tomorrow. I’m hoping Bowyers concocted a formula for fitting him and Butterfield in one team whilst maintaining a balance and discipline his first two games have shown. A narrow formation of 4-1-2-1-2 tomorrow perhaps?

    Don't we want him to stay so that they continue with their poor results? Just thinking!

    Fancy us to score a couple today so I've backed us to do so. How many will they get is the problem.

    We were playing top of the league and we are shite. Hardly gonna batter them are we? Get real.

    Today we have to right up and at them from the first minute. Get in their faces and get a lead to defend.

    Indeed. It makes me wonder if Bowyer is thinking more of next year than this -- no matter which division -- and thus favouring contracted players to loanees. Bit strange though to be leaving out two of our best players in a crucial match.
