Nelson

Thought he has one in the league and one in the cup? Could be wrong though. Not really fair to compare a centre half to a centre forward for goals scored, but Nelson is chipping in at roughly the same rate as our centre forwards for goals, I know who that comparison looks worse on.

I know it was offside but didn’t he (Mackie) actually clear his own scuffed two yard tap in attempt with his second go at it?
Two yards? More like two feet!!
 
Of course when he goes in the summer there is plenty of time to get a replacement even though we won’t get a fee. If he goes now we get a modest fee but can we replace him with someone as good. Probably not.
 
If he turns out to be the difference between us staying in this league or dropping down to the one below, then are we not better off allowing that "asset" to run down his contract? Staying in this league is surely worth more to the club than the transfer fee we would likely be able to squeeze for him with only a few months left on his contract.

Shipping him out now purely for the for the sake of making money off the departure of our "biggest asset" will leave our league standing in a more precarious position, forcing us to spend a large sum to bring in someone to replace him. Financially we may end up better off, but not by too much, and any profit will entirely lose its value if we end up relegated anyway.
 
With 6 months left on his contract, he's not our biggest asset.
 
GONE ...reading between the lines of what Nathan revealed on radox:(
 
Just heard his interview. Going, going, probably gone
 
Think Nelson was set up there by OUFC. The transfer question was always going to be asked.

Was a terrible and non productive interview. Mous / Ruffs etc should have been sent out by KR.
 
Sounded like a spoilt kid right from the off in the RO interview, obviously didn’t want to be put in that situation or for that matter at the club!

The writing is on the wall after that and was obviously given to the media for to confirm it to the fans.
 
Clearly he has no desire to continue playing for Oxford and will be gone in the next few weeks. His attitude in that interview was very poor.

No matter his abilities, the team will be better off with someone who wants to play for Oxford in central defence.
