Away Match Day Thread 30/09/2023 L1: Stevenage v OUFC

[Yellows1]

We will win this today, momentum is huge in football and although they are doing well I’ve got a positive feeling

 

[Salaghaf]

I’m going for 1-3, think we might concede 1 goal today.

I’m going for 1-3, think we might concede 1 goal today.

Or, we’ll be frustrated and lose a scrappy game 1-0. Hopefully you’re right but there is a danger that I am.

Going to be incredibly tough today. They will stifle, hassle, be creative with timewasting.

I think we've just about got enough

Stevenage for me is a s**t hole, unfortunately, I have been there several times playing at the Gordon Craig Theatre. On to the game, tough one today, Fatty Steve Evans and his negative football. I would take a draw, but I hope we'll get a 1 - 0 win. COYY'S

I can see there being a lot of added time today that’s for sure!

Wonder what's so interesting inside the drain the kid is looking at? (picture 3).

IT?!!!

I just feel we’ve moved on from the days of worrying about Evan’s type of football.
It had its place in the conference and League Two, but if we stick to our own game I can only see one result this afternoon.

 

[derek]

Quietly optimistic about this one.

I'm parked up, got my ticket. Think Beadle and the defence have too much for their diagonal crosses - nervy 1 nil win.

COYY!

 

[Orkney Islands Yellow]

Is there a need to change formation?

[Osleroad]

343 then - interesting to see how it works out

 

[Andy1505]

Hmm....not sure about this.....Leigh could have taken Edwards' place, and we'll need the full backs (who are actually centre backs) to deal with the long balls Mr Evans will target towards us.....hope this isn't a gamble .

 

[OxfordBoy]

Surprised at the formation but I do like the look of the team tbf

Funny there’s been a debate about Negru vs Thorniley so Manning plays an extra defender and picks neither

 

[Norwich exile]

Very attacking minded lineup. Going for it!

[BristolOx]

it’s either 3-4-3 or Stevens as a winger. But seeing as Brown has come in for Thorniley i’d imagine we are going with 3 at the back.

Interesting to see that we’re not expecting to need another man in the middle.

 

[greatunclekip]

Oof not sure about that line up at all.....

 

[Berliner]

As a rule of thumb you change either tactics or personnel. Seldom both unless in an emergency. I wouldn't have lined up like that, but hey ho, let's see.

 

[Davox]

Bit surprising to see Mills dropped. Have to be a little careful messing with a winning formation but also very excited to see if 3 at the back blunt the opposition.
