I know it's only a friendly, and mostly a fitness exercise, and only half a team etc etc - but it doesn't sound very inspiring!

Annoyed that Bristol City let one in. Very poor.

Add Hereford 2-0 Swindon to the list.

It’s funny to me that a couple of people on here were suggesting that this defence will struggle next season and we’re going to let in 2-3 goals a game etc. Going from what we saw under Manning when he took over and now this game, the defence will be absolutely fine, it’s more that we’re not going to score many goals! Plenty of 0-0s to come maybe…

Looks like Brown has come off injured. Need a left back even more now!

They scored another 9 in the second half!

That's got to be really useful for everyone involved...

It always dangerous to judge players/team performance on a few pre friendlies.

We are still at the stage of just getting players fit and getting players playing together and on the same wave length.

Finished 0-0 , a striker needed badly.

 

[Lincoln.yellow1]

0-0 finished

I listened on Radio Oxford, and would say I think Liam Manning will certainly have something to think about with regards to this evening. I'm glad it was a tight game - better than spanking teams and not learning anything, although I say that with zero authority as a football professional, just a fan.

Early days, but still lots to do, the transfer business seems to have been positive, but still not yet addressed last seasons issue of LB, CDM and Striker(s)

 

[tonto]

Relieved that Tyler and Cam are still here

 

[Bicester Yellow]

Early days but that squad of players needs beefing up. We need 4 at least. Starting with a LB, CDM, Winger & Striker. Without that we will be 12th at best.

 

[Steve Gilbert]

People saying about CDM, we have McGuane, McEachran, Smyth and Brannagan who can all play there plus Gorrin if he proves himself.

Off one preseason game with only half the squad involved?

Yes. It isn’t just pre season is it. It’s the same faults and issues as we had last season and we know how that ended up.
