Not at all worried about this result for many of the reasons pointed out - playing a strong Premier League team in desperate need of a result.
A good work out for some of our players against top class opposition. No disgrace.
All that really matters is the League game at the week-end.
Fans a great credit to the club tonight.

Would’ve liked a win obviously, but clearly from the team selection it wasn’t a priority. From the sounds of it we gave a decent account of ourselves and it gets our first defeat out the way. On to Saturday with Marosi, McFadzean, Shipley, Jobello and Godden rested.

Need Max back, can't do any worse at the moment

Max is better than Baka even Grendel I feel will agree here surely he needs letting go he’s not improved at all lacks heart & ability

Spot on I feel we will beat oxford

Baka is frustrating. He has all the attributes to play that role well, but just doesn’t seem to have the heart for it.

“Bakayoko” sounds like a footballer looks like an animal but...

Sky Blue Pete · Aug 27, 2019

Looks like oxford going through on pens 2 goals in last 3 mins. Oh well

wouldn't surprised me if Welbeck alone was on more than our first 11 tonight

I like it, nice sharp humour for the time of the evening

Best away support in years for cov. That is saying something as well.

who's proclaimed it that ?

it sounded great on the radio, but cant for the life of me see how it would beat Notts county away in that semi !

We looked clueless up front, all of the front 3 even after changes.

clearly not our finest hour, but we faced some very capable, highly paid players from 2 leagues above.

Clueless is harsh. lacking the quality and guile to unlock a prem defence, yes

3-0 Watford. One sniff of goal in the first half and they’ll shut us out.

I was half right! But I think we can be pleased with our show tonight, I don’t really think we showed ourselves up too much. First goal could’ve been avoided if Hyam poked his toe out. Second goal could’ve got a better foot to it (whoever it was) instead of playing him in. Third goal bad clearance from Wilson. More of a summary than complaint. The difference of level was blatant pretty much all game, but having said that I don’t think we made it easy for them - we had them panicked a few times. Is Kastaneer match fit yet, or will he always slow us down like that? Biamou is physically stronger than Bakayoko.

No sleep will be lost. Saturday far more important.

‘Clueless’ is nonsense. The difference in speed between the two teams was clear. Like when we played Arsenal, the intensity they put on us is unseen at our level.

larry_david · Aug 27, 2019

What's the damage then. Morale shouldn't be hit from that. Mason injured but wanted to carry on, suggests might be a pre caution. Minutes for o hare, kast and Eccles. Jobello, shippers, marosi and westbrooke rested.

As long as confidence isn't shot and Mason is ok, we'll move on pretty quickly from this

Frank Sidebottom · Aug 27, 2019

£25m winger scored their first goal. Says it all really.

Wyken Sky Blue · Aug 27, 2019

I hope Baka doesn't start a game for the club for the rest of the season.

Yes we lost to a team with Premier League quality but in a sense I am disappointed. We looked clueless in the final third and just felt we never game them as good as a game as we should've done.

Still, onwards and upwards.

I would have troubled them more than Baka did.

the guy in goal for them on £35k a week.

that's likely to be small fry to what Welbeck is on.

Did robins say anything about Mason?

Hamstring issue I think

imagine Bristol Rovers thoughts on the weekend, as JCH was equally as ineffective v us.

We cant judge Baka v a prem defence, as clearly he's nowhere near that quality, he's a league one reserve striker.

It's football Nick
Max is desperate to play for the club and loves it here and thinks he can deliver
The manager doesn't think he's worth his place
The manager has done well so there will only be one outcome
Football is a ruthless business

Erm you can when he was putting basic passes straight out of play and the touch of a sex offender.

larry_david · Aug 27, 2019

Is it time to start asking where Max is... Is this easing him back for the longer term or is this something else

433 We get away with it at league 1 upper levels It shows up more if it was 433 we played

skyblue025 · Aug 27, 2019

On our way home. Thought we played ok without really troubling them up front. Different in class was obvious. Their players bigger, stronger, faster. No one stood out for us,

Robins doesn't half way his mind up on player quickly, does he? Once you're out, you're out
