Ref Watch +++ 13/07/20 L1 Play Off FINAL - OUFC v Wycombe+++

Next year.. lol good luck with the teams coming down we will be lucky to stay in League.. That was a joke.... What a way to lose a playoff final.. Worst thing is it was written in the stars with that coming from 8th to third malarkey.. We will never get a chance like that again for another 10 years.. They don't deserve it either.. did nothing.. Will see them back down next season.
 
I’m quite shocked how poor we were. Apparently some players think they deserve to play at a higher level!!?? Well the truth is, u r where u r & if u can’t compete against against players that u think r below u, then jog on!!!! I’m so frustrated, Browne was strutting around like it meant nothing to him, if he would of chased that ball rather than appealing for a throwing then the penalty would not of happened. To many big egos who think they r mustard but when it counts they don’t perform, hence why they play at the level they do. I’m so,so angry & feel let down!! Sorry people.
 
Simon Eastwood can go. Both goals his fault and he’s been poor this season. He shouted for Moore to duck out of that and then tried to blame him after - he was on his bike far too quickly for a notoriously flat footed and ‘stay at home’ keeper, and Moore hasn’t ducked out of a header all season. As soon as it bounced you knew he was clattering him and that was that.

And as for Marcus Browne - watch that moment before the penalty again when the dust settles. Their right back scuffs the ball back to the keeper and if Browne is paying attention he runs clean through. Instead he gives up, turns and starts berating somebody, and it’s the subsequent long ball clearance that goes over Moore. You know what happens next.

Thrown away needlessly and pointlessly.

How do you know Eastwood called for the ball?

in my eyes Moore decided to leave it thinking it would run through to Eastwood. The blame lies with Moore for 2nd goal, just needed to head it.

Also, Henry needs to put his foot through the ball when it was 1-1. If we’d got the 2nd at that point there was only one winner.

just concerned what will happen now, can see a lot of people moving on.
 
Sadly I agree that Easty let himself and us down. Not in agreement that it was a pen but, he has not been the same all season.
As always, teams do their research and stop us.
hasn't been the same since he got injured unfortunately
 
My thoughts exactly. The manner of the loss - two awful goals to concede. Tommorow is another day however and I will look ahead with promise and hope.
 
People saying with Wycombe's style "they can keep it" but in what way were we the more entertaining side over the last three games? We created less than they did. In this game, Wycombe weren't just firing mortar strikes into our box they were playing calculated and well executed long balls with fast runners. Strong set pieces that fans could actually get excited about. When was the last time we could genuinely get excited by corners?

Will they get spanked in the Championship? Yes. But I won't be looking at Wycombe and thinking they play ugly football anymore because to be frank, they don't.

I'm still relatively happy in League 1 and hope we can remain competitive next season. And I Ionder how many of those who started tonight will be Oxford players next season.
 
A performance with a heart, but without a brain.
Was there heart though? The whole evening just felt completely flat to me. My mrs, who doesnt watch much football, commented that we looked like the supporting cast tonight from the start.
 
I would honestly say we were shite for 3 games if those players can’t raise there game at Wembley where apparently some of them think they should be playing to get to the championship where they all believe they should be then they bottled it they were s**t

We were by far the better team tonight and deserved to win, but made costly mistakes.

He deffo got a call to leave it. Eastwood was already coming out left hand side of the goal to collect it.
