When someone comes out with a comment like that they mean in the long run. People just love to start debates
I prefer current stats. 1 goal in their last 6 games says a lot.

Touché
2 home games this month. 1-1 with Bristol City and lost 2-0 to Portsmouth.

first goal is crucial
Hardest game out of the three remaining out of the five block.
We’ll need to be more clinical as don’t think we’ll get the same amount of chances especially in the air with Helik (fun stat we’ve scored the most headers in Europe in 24/25).
4-3-3 again, not sure if I’d change Eccles for Allen ( Sheaf won’t be ready).
I think if we score more goals than them we'll probably win
Had this conversation Saturday, he’s got a good problem to solve, think Patterson stays in , he can cover Clarke , and don’t think we need 6 midfielders in the squad ? rest of it about right, who’d of thought bassette wouldn’t get in when we first signed him,They had a good run when Rowatt first came in but fell off a bit since.
Dovin
MVE Thomas Kitching Bidwell
Eccles Grimes Rudoni

Allen
Torp
Wright

3-1 win
That bench is unbelievable btw
Paterson was a liability on Saturday in my opinion, needs a few games with the 23s. As you say it’s a good problem to have.Had this conversation Saturday, he’s got a good problem to solve, think Patterson stays in , he can cover Clarke , and don’t think we need 6 midfielders in the squad ? rest of it about right, who’d of thought bassette wouldn’t get in when we first signed him,
I agree, its more beneficial to have Paterson on the bench than 3 CMs.Had this conversation Saturday, he’s got a good problem to solve, think Patterson stays in , he can cover Clarke , and don’t think we need 6 midfielders in the squad ? rest of it about right, who’d of thought bassette wouldn’t get in when we first signed him,
Everyone keeps saying this but its not really a thing that happens much any more, i can't even remember the last time a proper first team type player played in our u23s. I think Bassette who's first team but still very raw played one if memory serves and scored about 5 goals.Paterson was a liability on Saturday in my opinion, needs a few games with the 23s.

But please take him off free kick takingEccles played quite well on Saturday imo, I'd keep the team the same
Except Collins. Why isnt Wilson the number 2 ?They had a good run when Rowatt first came in but fell off a bit since.

isn't Wilson's contract up in the summer? My guess is neither are particularly wanted by the club but no buyers. As Collins has longer to go on his contract he is 2nd choice as he will likely be around next season too.Ex

Oxford just aren’t very good, we have to win. We gifted them goals at our place and still squeaked 3 points.
Really we need 3 wins from our next 3 to take us into the tricky run.
Oxford’s home form is impressive for a promoted side, only 2 places below us (10th and 12th). They are not to be underestimated and it will be a tough game!
With WBA away at Leeds and Blackburn home v Norwich, teams around us will be dropping points so our main job is to not lose.
It'll definitely be a tough game, but given their recent form it's one we should be getting three points from really. Said it a couple of times already but being limited to 2 shots on target over the past 4 games is genuinely atrocious by them.
Need to capitalise on the lack of form of others.
It won’t be easy a cheeky goal in the 93rd minute to win by the odd goal is perfectly fine
I'm not so sure. It will depend on our formation. If we play Simms and Wright up front there will be space on the bench for Bassette. If we only play 1 of them up front then I fully agree.I doubt Bassette or Raphael will feature much for the rest of the season, I expect that provided there are few injuries the return of Sheaf, Torp and Wright will ensure that they don't even make the bench.
They had a great run when their manager took over. Lost his first game to Leeds. Then won 5 drew 2 in the next 7. But since then they have been poor. Don't know if it is down to injuries but going from winning most games to struggling to even get a shot on target?Wow, didn’t realise their form was that bad! They have had a few tough games but it’s evened out as they’ve played teams around them.
I can definitely see us winning against Oxford and breaking into the top 6 but end up losing to Robins’ Stoke.
God help us if Dovin gets injured thenisn't Wilson's contract up in the summer? My guess is neither are particularly wanted by the club but no buyers. As Collins has longer to go on his contract he is 2nd choice as he will likely be around next season too.
WBA is 2 months awayThe pivotal moment in the next few weeks will be when we play WBA. Beat them and we should move above them if we haven't fluffed things between now and then
