I expected nothing less sadly. We were lucky to beat them at home.
Surprised to see a Lincoln getting beat by Gills. Who rovers play very soon

Wow how bad was that first half,absolutely shocking defending and Goalkeeping performance. I've not seen a worse 45 since the conference days!!!

2 months of this...

Careful you'll be accused of being an over reacting crap supporter.

The op is predictable.

However, it's not going too well right now is it?  Andy butler must be fuming.  Much more of this and he won't make the end of the season....

We’re running out of experienced bodies and it clearly shows. That’s still no excuse for giving the ball away umpteen times on the edge of our own box. I hoped this might change under AB, but unfortunately it hasn’t. We could end up on the end of a right thumping here.

When you have over half of your best 11 out injured it’s always going to be very difficult but this has been a shambles... the gamble on giving the job to Butler is sadly starting to look like a mistake

Thing is, we keep getting battered away from home, usually conceding early goals. It’s almost a formality for each away game.

Sorry to say it folks, but we aren’t finishing in the top 6. Some big decisions to be made in summer I think

He can only manage what he's able to put out on the pitch. Do we expect him to platt water?

Not judging AB on this one even though I have doubts that he is the right solution going forward.

I predicted 3-0 defeat tonight so no point trying to say this is a surprise!

Smith doing the majority of losing the ball. He's going backwards with each week

A top ten finish seems like a good outcome at the moment. Given injuries and  :turd: that Moore left us in, it’s to be expected. Our luck was always going to run out with that freak run.

Worst thing, I predict a similar result on Saturday. I have absolutely zero confidence we can go away from home, set up to be solid and take the win.

With so many away games left for us it’s not looking promising

I just hope the club honour ABs football contract and support him in either getting someone experienced in to help him asap. Another bad defeat like this on sat and you will need to wonder when the job advert will be going out. Fair play to fergy by the way, looks like his arse isn't going to fall out this time

Sorry
The team are not backing him
Any excuse for an injury
Now he must go and get experience immediately
Who?    There are many waiting in the wings
Go for it quick..............

James, Bostock, Bogle , Sims, Taylor - to name but 5 who would all have been in the starting line up tonight, but for injury. I know we were poor but put those 5 back in and we’re a different proposition. I’m as disappointed as anyone tonight, but let’s put things into perspective.

The silver lining tonight was not on the pitch at Oxford, but Ipswich and Lincoln getting beat.

And mine Branton Rover. Some people think the injuries are down to Andy Butler, totally bizarre

Post by: the vicar on March 16, 2021, 10:49:19 pm
The injuries are down to playing 3 games a week EVERY WEEK on a relatively small squad.  Was it ABs fault we lost most of the loan players earlier through injury NO

We're doing the same bad things under Butler as we did under Moore but our overall performances are worse.

I know the injuries really have shafted us but the gamble of giving Butler the job when we have the best chance of getting promoted in years is starting to look a totally wrong call.

.... couldnt believe OUFC were blatantly time wasting almost from 1-0 up. Fancy not going for jugular wnen we were clearly down and out and tbeir bloke getting a Yellow with 3 mins to go

Personally I HOPE they miss out on Play offs on Goal Difference of 1 goal - better yet if it was us that benefited but that does look less likely with the injuries

Vicar, we do not play three games a week mate.
