By the sounds of it we fluffed plenty of chances first half .. but another pre season win is pleasing

Do wonder if 4 at the back is forced or if we’re working on a style change.

Looks like we’re trying 4-3-3

I don't mind 4-3-3 in principle could really suit some of the team... Just not sure we quite have the forward players for it... Playing 3 out and out strikers up front will make for a very narrow front 3, making it potentially easier to defend. Will be interesting to see how Robins has it working.

He might see a role for Waghorn playing slightly deeper than the other two and being a build up link between the midfield and forwards?

SlowerThanPlatt · Jul 12, 2022

Think the U23s fixture against Wolves tomorrow will involve a lot of first team too

Hobo · Jul 12, 2022

Could do because it is all about getting minutes into legs and building match fitness/sharpness.

Friendly or not I’m glad we beat them fuckers - hate them with a passion.

the horrific double over us in league two, then the shitty penalty shootout loss in the checkatrade.

SHFWR lol

Yep, bit of a mismatch really

REPORT: Wolves U23 1-8 Sky Blues

The Sky Blues got more minutes in the tank this afternoon when they beat Wolverhampton Wanderers Under-23s at the Sir Jack Hayward Training Ground.

Hamer straight from a corner, shame after threatening it all last season he’s finally done it in a training match.

No Doyle either? Is he not with the squad yet @Skybluebeliever ?

Said in his interview he's starting training with us next week.

SlowerThanPlatt · Jul 13, 2022

Wolves have taken their better U23s on tour so I would guess this was close to an U18 side for them

Sheaf with another goal

Great to see the immense Sheaf scoring @Earlsdon_Skyblue1

He's on fire in preseason! All jokes aside if he can really kick on to even 50% of the level you think he already is, then I will be very happy indeed! Big season for him and all the signs are good at the moment.

Waggy scored a pretty good goal. Ball over the top from COH nice touch and finish. Hopefully we get the highlights.

Yeah saw that and Sheaf's goal (really good assist from Tavares I think) from his instagram.
Haven't been able to find the other highlights though

Understandable from fans perspective but it would be a bit classless. This was a Championship first team v U18 players

You lucky people going to Oxford on Saturday will be one of the first to see their new kit

New Kit Unveiled on Saturday | Oxford United Football Club

Oxford United are delighted to announce that the club’s official home kit for the 2022/23 season will be revealed at Saturday’s pre-season friendly with Coventry City.

Have you got the links?

SlowerThanPlatt · Jul 14, 2022

On Instagram stories which you can’t post, they’re still up though (24hrs) if you go to their profiles

AOM · Jul 14, 2022

Yep on Ben Sheaf's IG story. Waghorn and O'Hare posted the other goal yesterday so it might still be up!

SeaSeeEffCee · Jul 14, 2022

If Oxford were smart they’d release some marketing saying that Jodi Jones is going to be involved on Saturday. Would probably sell 500 more tickets to a certain subsection of our fans. Get Biamou on trial too and they might hit 1k.
