    Formation all wrong. Can’t hold onto then ball and zero movement.
    Anderson not having a good game but Billy Clarke is in the same bracket. Anonymous.

    Need to start getting on second balls. Seem miles away from the ball all game.

    Maybe I'm a drama queen but...

    - not scored since it feels like ages
    - one shot on target in the last 120 minutes
    - very few shots anywhere in the last 120 minutes
    - weird formation
    - seems like poor choice of players

    Just can't think of anything postive. We are creating nothing.

    Okay Bowyer, let's see what you've got up your sleeve, we're getting battered.

    Par for the course really. At least they're criticising the players and the formation this week.

    Anderson once again gave the ball away , can we afford to wait until the second half, if we go a goal down it could be good night Vienna.

    Why is Butterfield playing LM. He was playing there on Tuesday!

    It's wasting him there. He's had about 2 touches of the ball in 37 minutes

    Anderson sounds shocking. Not quite sure what Bowyer sees in him. A knackered O'Brien would offer more surely. I assume Bowyer thought OB needed a break?

    Goodnight Bowyer, more like. Already seems to be building the squad for L2.

    I'm not sure he is, if he was doing that we wouldn't be so hugely reliant on loanees.

    Agree.

    It's a start that isn't used much in football but I wonder what the territory stats are. They always seem to have the ball in our half. We seem to have the ball for seconds and lose it.

    Can only see an oxford win at this point. We’ve offered nothing to the game so far, no attacking threat, nobody in midfield getting on the ball. They’re overloading the wings and getting far too much space to deliver balls into the box.

    Special mention to Anderson who is having a terrible game.

    Take Anderson and Clarke OFF!

    This will say a lot about Bowyer for me if he keeps one or the pair of them on at the start of the second half.

    Anderson is a car crash. A proper liability.

    That half shows why we are where we are - we’re rubbish and we’re naive. Haven’t played the conditions at all.

    Oxford have been crap, but still comfortably better than us. They’ll take us to the shed in the second half.

    Bang on, both sh*t, I don't know why we signed either of them.
