Maybe they should think about a fourth stand.

Starting to see how they beat PBoro. Great game management in the 2nd half vs a team who finished 12 points ahead of Oxford in the table.

I would say 6 easy points but I'm hyper aware we were one of 5 teams to lose to Rotherham all season.

Maybe not 'much' but I think it has weakened.

IMO .Think they will surprise a few.Only seen the second half, they were well organised and never seem in any trouble admittedly against a Bolton side that lacked anyone like Murphy.

Rotherham away was an easy game, we were just utterly crap

Oxford aren’t very good (cough cough 6-2).

To be fair I also meant easy in terms of travel.

Not much easier. I would say the relegated from PL a little weaker but the promoted from L1 stronger. Will be a keenly contested division next season

Rather than focus on the 6 different clubs, the question is how much stronger or weaker are the 24 overall and you can’t judge that yet.

What matters most is how much better or worse a squad we have compared to this season.

Did he book the player for diving?

Worrying thing is how bad a mistake it would have been with no var.

Surely it was a corner?

Doesn’t look like it, but clear dive so should have been.

VAR can’t be used to give a yellow in a situation like that. Can only be used take it away if he made a mistake.

Think he gave a free kick for the dive though?

It can & probably should have.

Either way the restart was wrong. Should have been a corner, or if on review, he believes it's a dive/simulation ,it should have been a free-kick & a yellow card. For some reason the ref restarted with a drop ball.. that should only happen if ball was still in play.

Perhaps it was? If he blew straight away for the pen and the ball had yet to cross the line? Not seen it back, but that was my assumption.

I was so impressed with how Crawley knocked it around for a League Two side, props to them it was refreshing to see
