Moore? Telford left on the bench. WTF. Hopefully I'll regret writing that.

Moore. I've never seen him beat a player. I can't remember him playing a decent ball forward. He can't tackle. I missed his goal at bloody Wimbledon as I was late getting into the ground. Why DC persists with him is utterly beyond me. Apart from clinging to the vain hope he will come good and justify his f******g ridiculous 2 year contract.

Yes he is poor.Have reservations about Nicholls too despite those who are convinced he'll come good.Too lightweight like Luke James.Never looks like scoring.

Guy I stand with said what I've thought for some weeks - we try to walk the ball into the net,we overelaborate & the chance is gone. Snap-shots on sight would bring greater reward.

Just one of those games today. Didn't do much wrong and didn't deserve a defeat but that's the way it goes sometimes. Thought Oxford players trying their best to get Ollie sent off were total wan kers and I'm glad we don't act in that way. Subs were necessary because of the yellow cards but the subs made us weaker I thought. Liked Bola alot and I hope he gets a run in the team

Oxford United were far better their number 10 Payne was literally a pain throughout. Amazed he was subbed. They had players comfortable on the ball.
A tad after the Lord Mayors Show without the bunting.
Warm day and I felt Sercombe,Bola Broadbent, Lines and Nichols looked good. Gaffers worked hard in good areas but Ellis still frustrates me with no end product. Telford looked lively. Regretfully Moore weaken the side
Oxford for me will challenge for a play off place ..not convinced we will.

When two teams are closely matched in most departments, it boils down to the little things that really count. We looked a touch tired at the end, I thought; we occasionally hit a bad pass at the wrong time and generally had difficulty in working the ball forwards without hoofing it. Give Oxford credit, they had a solid gameplan and made it stick. But it was easy to see that a small bit of good play would have made all the difference today (as opposed to last week). We weren't helped by some indifferent approach play and finishing but it's not all doom and gloom. The game at Shrewsbury on Tuesday will be no repeat.
