v Oxford United (a) - 18/1/25

[neophox]

Toths presence needed

[waynerovers]

Freekick was powerful and deflected, most keepers would have struggled to save that.

[Exiled_Rover]

See, again, where is the fucking yellow card there, ref? The Oxford player has blatantly tripped our player. 

[wilsdenrover]

I blame Jim 

[neophox]

If you can't beat Oxford you won't go up

[onlyonejackwalker]

Big balls needed now.

[Neal]

Not a great performance at all this, 2nd best everywhere. No attacking threat at all, just way too deep and not brave enough. Have to gamble now and get high up the pitch.

Can't blame Pears for not saving a deflected free kick.

Keepers side

Fuck all up front and now fuck all in midfield.

[West Yorks Rover]

Watford 2-0 up at Derby.

WBA equalise too.

..created for more then rovers and fully deserve to be ahead? What game are you watching?

They've created more but they haven't created any clear cut chances. 

[Lancaster Rover]

Can we bring Gueye back on as an impact sub……….

[Bethnal]

Oxford justifiably fighting for their lives but we don’t really look like we fancy it, today.

[neophox]

Why do we always lose against shit teams Plymouth hull Stoke and now Oxford

Yeah that’s an odd take, they’ve had 2/3 unbelievable chances. Game should be over 

[booth]

Too many injuries/not enough depth. It's now 18th January and so far nothing to address it apart from waste a place on Forshaw.

[RTM08]

Classic Rovers, never turn up when actually expected.

[Lancaster Rover]

Our superstar creator Cantwell has been invisible again

[davulsukur]

Poor stuff this. Woeful in attack.

[sharpysharps86]

Oh dear. Was always a big concern that we'd struggle in midfield with Tronstad going off.

Oxford will hold onto this lead for dear life.

[Exiled_Rover]

I do love Beck. After a shaky 5 minutes he's had their right winger (with the shit hair) on toast.

Has some guy not just had a clear shot from 14 yards that Pears had to save? Or did I imagine that? Also did Pears not that volley that he didn’t connect with wide?
You’re bias is legendary.

To be fair Oxford are on a great run since Gary Rowett came in as manager.

[ItsRoverZ]

Shows how badly our recruitment is, winnable games so far this month and we've bad 0 body's through the door to help improve the squad, it's a joke.

[LDRover]

There were some praising Forshaw after his 10 minute nothing appearance on Wednesday where he passes sideways or backwards while appearing to be towing a caravan.

I fear we're going to be seriously exposed with his enforced selection in the next few games.
