Away Match Day Thread +++ 07/03/20 Shrewsbury Town v OUFC +++

Any direct praise for Agyei today in the post match interview? In the States so haven’t caught it - saw the game on ifollow and had to go out before interviews.

Rotherham are struggling right now - only one win in five despite only playing one team in the top half in that time........they're there to be overtaken.

That being said, one bad result and you're probably dropping down to 8th.

Gonna be a hell of an exciting end to the season!

Am I the only one that is growing slightly tired of the post-match s**t stirring from RadOx? They are always trying to make something of nothing and why do they insist on having the same caller on every single week, talking absolute rubbish? Do one, Paul.

My sentiments exactly as posted earlier.

biggest goal yet for Ruffels to take us from 8th to 3rd.
thought we had lost that today but never gave up.
could well be in the autos by the end of the month ?

Shades of Charlton away a few seasons ago. Just mayhem and a game that leaves you not knowing what to think.

The way we finish games is surely down to our fitness. Shrewsbury were looking ragged (they had 10 men after all) and we just kept them moving. As good as Browne’s delivery was, I’m sure mental tiredness on our opponent’s part allowed Ruffels to dash in to finish it.

As for the performance - it was all over the place! Sluggish defending, misplaced passes, selfish play all combined with direct play, running the channels, forcing them into errors and some terrific finishing. It made for a bizarre mix with a brilliant outcome. I need a lie down after it.

I should add that we looked better with Sykes in the team over Holland. Whilst I’d never choose those circumstances and hope Nathan is ok, he looked like a kid out there and whilst Sykes isn’t much older does have a few more games and nous under his belt.

Just saw your post. Glad I'm not the only one that's noticed this. We should be backing the team, not creating gossip from nowhere because Paul is on the phone. Cringeworthy.

YEEEEEEEEEEES.Well done the lads. A good performance all round and third in the table has got to be good.

When they played at the Kaz Stad, they employed diving, kicking the ball away, feigning injuries etc. Just rewards.

He forgot to mention the blatant penalty the ref didnt give us.

Fantastic result today, and showed great character to come from 2-0 and win 3-2. Yes they had 10 men, but normally 10 men play better, and also harder to break down. You can only play against what’s in front of ya, and we got the job done.

Extremely proud yellow tonight, and starting to think we could achieve something very special.

I did say on another thread we will go on another epic run. 5 wins on the bounce and every chance of making it 6 against MK Dons.

I love you OUFC

For me it's not so much the league position that makes today so good.

It is the fact that we gained 3 points on Rotherham and Portsmouth (and Wycombe although they didn't play), 2 points on Sunderland and Fleetwood and kept pace with Coventry and Peterborough. That is a MASSIVE day for us.

 

[OxfordUs20]

Great performance today. Poor before the sending off but impressed with the second half (especially Browne, Agyei, Ruffs and Brannagan). Great goal from Agyei and showed shrewdness after Ruffs goal to take the ball with him.

 

[Fat bloke]

So Holland's out with hamstring injury so Sykes could stay in team.?

 

[cassox]

well done lads.....shut those shrewsbury ifollow twats up good and proper......bet theyre crying in their beer now ha ha ha ha ? ? ? ? ?

His turn and finish was outrageous. He couldn’t have placed it better.

He was a bit bull in a china shop though. He Mackied his was about, running after the ball during moments when he shouldn’t have and subsequently ended up out of position. However his strength at the end keeping the ball in the corner showed why we signed up. He’s a work in progress but so were Ledson, O’Dowda and Baptiste once.

Bloody luvverly that.
