Poor match. Should be 2-2 by now. Both sides guilty of poor mistakes but no quality from us or Shrews to punish the errors.

Is it just me or is there something very wrong about giving the players the day off after that farce? They said the need to get to the bottom of it quickly and move on. How about getting all of them in and sorting it?! They could still get them in the afternoon. There needs to be consequences to...

It’s one of those performances when I’d seriously consider not renewing my season ticket if the board persist with Buckingham into next season. The players clearly aren’t getting motivated and buying into what he’s doing. There’s just been too many times now and no excuses left

Players are going hiding now. Painful to watch us throw away the season but it was probably rubber stamped when we lost to Orient

I really want us to clear the decks this summer starting with Mcguane. He means well but all he does is get us on the back foot

Utterly useless. Players not running for him tonight. Really worrying

Apart from bemoaning some individual errors I can also see what Buckingham was trying to do with that performance. Moore set the tone for the forward passing and the team togetherness in pressing, blocking and backing each other up was there. We edged an away game against top of the league...

I really couldn’t care less if Mcguane is moved on in the summer. Always starts the season well and then offers nothing for the remainder. Every time the ball is coming in his direction and he challenges he completely misjudges the bounce and we lose possession and it seems like he needs a wide...

The damning thing for Des is the form table. Last 6 we are 16th in form table (when Des has got an acceptable squad to choose from) and 18th in the last 10. This takes in a few games where we had limited options but still shows you he’s taken us from automatic promotion form to low end of the...

I reckon there should be some positives to balance the negative (including my own comments btw!) Positives are 1) this season is a massive improvement on last season. 2) There have been improvements with attacking play in particular over this season. Did we really believe we were going to get...

Yeah it was damning as he seemed genuinely confused about how to answer and basically said it’s up to the players to pick the best option. No wonder the players are confused about the game plan

It’s a common observation about being too passive on the touchline. I think that the team performances reflect Des on the touchline as there are long spells in every game where we are passive. The problem again and again though for me is how many 50/50’s we lose. So so many compared to under...

I like seeing Leigh forward but strange midfield. Hopefully he’s seen something in training to suggest it’ll work

As many have said, the first half was just terrible. They psychologically beat us as we went from passing out the back to kicking long as they pushed up very high. I did think we capitulated there as we panicked on the ball and when we persisted with it we developed chances . Second half totally...

I have it that we need to win at least 7 of the remaining 15 games and draw 3/4 to make the playoffs. As most of those wins will likely come at home, the next two Tuesdays if we don’t win in one of those games, we’ll fall short. Getting to crunch time with the encouragement of players returning...

For me, it’s important we keep Rodrigues in there as he’s a good source of goals/assists when he’s on it but maybe for Wycombe away that’s the play

Must have been said but Matete 100% in for Mcguane Tuesday.

The thing that I’m most concerned about with Buckingham is that he doesn’t seem to have a signature/style of playing in his teams. He’s had nearly 20 games now and we should be able to identify what a Des Buckingham team looks like. Robinsons teams were constant pressing (sometimes foolishly)...

We’ll see who the true fans are tomorrow night. I’m annoyed and disappointed with how the club is being run but not supporting in person is never an option unless you can’t go due to money issues or prior commitments of course then it’s understandable. To not go cos you think it’s boring...

As much as I’m frustrated with the decision from day one to appoint Buckingham, I can’t understand people choosing not to go to the match if they possibly can. Supporting Oxford has always been taking the rough with the smooth and it’s always been more of the former. Therefore, I’ll be going and...
