We were much better in the second half and a dull first. Decent turnout considering the time and it being on Sky.

And they were poor first half and 2nd half. MR deserves some credit

I thought Karl Robinsons interview was a fair assessment. Interesting that he said that he couldnt see them losing, as opposed to he could see them winning. I did think Shipley rode his luck, but their no 8 could easily have. Had a couple of bookings too.

I don't understand this either. Scored and played well for the u23s in the week and not even on the bench today?

It was a routine save that he got lucky with pushing the back in the middle. His positioning for the goal was abject and that’s being kind.

Here we go again. Watch the save again and watch how he’s held back by the striker. He does need to not alllw it but still

I have - again the bar is set so low routine becomes genius - if that went in it would be a howler

Been on the Oxford forum. General consensus is they shaded first half, we bossed the 2nd but both teams are average and bottom half finishes for both.

Can understand that but I think we’ll get better and stronger as the season goes on.

OH for heavens sake you are the least charitable, most dogmatic person. We all know that had Biamou played like JCH you'd have said he played like a dog. Being consistent is an overrated virtue

It’s all too familiar how quiet it is on here after a win.

I might have missed it, but no one highlighting how MR out thought Robinson today.

Two big home games coming up against Barnsley and Sunderland. These fixtures will give an indication as to whether we have top 6 credentials or it’s mid table obscurity at best

Compared to the first half comments on here, mid table obscurity would be a massive result

There were so many niggly fouls, disrupted the game a hell of a lot. I’m not saying we were whiter than white but for that tosser to say ‘they were kicked from pillar to post’ is laughable.

He hates Cov. Remember him having an outburst when we beat MK Dons

None. He isn't a problem that has any real impact on our current league position

You were right @Nick about Robinson. Mentioned that they lost to a deflection and a pen, and thought Shipley should have been sent off, his men were ‘kicked from pillar to post’, and the treatment of Browne was excessive as he’s gone in with cuts and bruises

Depends. How many narrow wins are because back 4 don't have faith in their keeper so go for crosses they wouldn't normally or try to take extra touch and make Clarence they don't think their keeper can etc

Just playing devils advocate

Bit harsh but you're right. Whenever an,attacker tries to impede him he should be smashing them out of the way. Keepers rarely get penalised for doing so.
I still don't think he's as bad as people make out does this level. You see q lot of poor keeping.

Great win. Chaplin looks the business. Willis and Hyam excellent today. JCH effort also made a hell of difference. Grimmer is my 1st choice RB. I’m feeling very optimistic as this team has much more to give. Well done MR.

A good target man who can play maybe like Jayden Stockley & a strong creative midfielder i think we need like baptise today I thought he was decent.

Clarke Harris played exactly how you'd want a target man to play. Did you watch the game?

Don't think he holds any grudges, He is just a very bad loser, And makes excuses for his teams poor performances. Didn't complain when they beat us in the cup.
