Just shows that Oxford are not as bad as their position suggests.

They're not out of their depth, but their position's not really false either.

They're pretty solid, but don't get many; that's why they're where they are.

All week I've been seeing Boro fans saying it would be a cricket score against Oxford, all forgetting how Oxford did the exact same to us a few weeks ago. Fair play to them.

Wrexham destroying Ipswich too, it's been a really good day.

 

[skybluecb]

Fantastic results today, couldn't have gone much better and we have our mojo back

 

[Evo1883]

Opta has us back in the 90% to get promoted

Yea thats a massive day today

 

[BackRoomRummermill]

be nice to get a win against SU - just take 1 game at a time

 

[robbiethemole]

Yet we had so called fans saying if you can't beat Oxford at home you don't deserve to go up

Smh

and some of the fuckers were our own too hahahha

 

[Ccfcisparks]

Yea thats a massive day today

Like you said just, a win vs Sheff U and an ipswich failure to win may make me combust

 

[sc1940]

Too quick for me

I had it ready to press as soon as the Boro game finished

 

[The Nomad]

If Carlsberg did Saturdays.

If Carlsberg did Saturdays

Or Sundays, but not for everyone else.

[Lamps]

We're bottlers. We're fooked. We're shite...

Middlesbrough get top for one game......

Thanks for taking top spot for a game Middlesbrough

 

[Ccfcisparks]

4 games today for chasers playing non chasers and all lost ground.

Remember they all have to play each other too

 

[Finham]

Middlesbrough match over, what a week. Best in a while

Said it on another thread but today's results mean we're guaranteed to be top going into the Stoke game. At that point we will have 12 games left with 7 at home. Game on.

 

[Osullivan18]

The change a week makes

 

[CCFCSteve]

Just shows that Oxford are not as bad as their position suggests. Bottom v top strikes again

They can set up well to not lose, not sure about winning. The reaction after our game where we should’ve won 2 or 3 - 0 was way OTT.

There’s no gimmes in this league

 

[TomRad85]

I don't usually troll or rise to trolls on Twitter, in fact I barely post, but there was one Ipswich fan on there who was absolutely obsessed with us bottling it. Might go and find him.

 

[mark82]

Takes so much pressure off of that Sheffield United game now.

 

[Finham]

Brilliant set of results. Looking forward to travelling to Sheffield on Wednesday now - whatever happens, we’ll still be top after the game!

I was going to say "Nah, it's United" but then I read your post properly.

If the Bristol one gets moved we'll have 3 home games on the trot

 

[Boicey]

Now we want Wednesday to give Sheff utd a real battle tomorrow.

Oxford hit the woodwork twice. Fine margins.

A few red cards and injuries for Utd

 

[fernandopartridge]

Some good context today for our draw against Oxford. We limited them as an attacking force to a far greater extent than Boro and made more big chances.

 

[Ccfcisparks]

Yes but remember we must assume Ipswich will win the majority of their remaining games

 

[sc1940]

The change a week makes

Yes, we could have been 8 points behind Boro tonight

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Now we want Wednesday to give Sheff utd a real battle tomorrow.

Wilder will be getting very moist at the prospect of sending Wednesday down.

 

[Osullivan18]

Oxford hit the woodwork twice. Fine margins.

Also their striker in behind slips on the ball

 

[Paul Anthony]

I don't think we could have asked for a better set of results today. What a day!

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

You should start with that journo who predicted they'd go 7 unbeaten.

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Now we want Wednesday to give Sheff utd a real battle tomorrow.

Want an absolute bloodbath
Fights and sending offs

 

[Otis]

Yet we had so called fans saying if you can't beat Oxford at home you don't deserve to go up

Smh

Some called the draw "disastrous."



Keep the faith. Oxford made it tough for us and seems like they have done the same to Boro.

Long way to go yet, but today it's all looking very, very rosy.
