Wow…..best performance I’ve seen in a long time. I thought the writing was on the wall for Des after Bolton but he’s found a winning formula so fair play to him.
I thought before the game a draw would have been acceptable with our two best players out. I’ve been really critical about McEachran...
Do you think the making of Murphy is him becoming a Dad and realising there’s more to life than worrying about football?
I’ve heard that when Manning was in charge he was in his office most days such was his fragile mental state.
I’m going for another frustrating draw. Lincoln, Peterborough & Stevenage at home means it’s in our hands. If we don’t get positive results against those three then we don’t deserve to be in the play offs.
He was interviewed on talksport on Wednesday at Cheltenham races and said he was “loving it” at Oxford. I know he wouldn’t really say any different but as you say he can’t be happy being a bit part player for us.
Vale terrible particularly in the first half but you can only beat what’s in front of you.
I’ve been impressed with Dale recently, works hard takes his man on and looks like he really cares.
One signing I’ve been really disappointed with though is McEachran, his sloppy pass nearly gave them...
If we don’t make the play offs he has to go. We’ve all heard the rumours about the players not having him and others within the club saying he’s out of his depth. With this group of players we should be pushing top two not hanging on to the last play off spot.
I think the biggest frustration for us all is that automatic promotion it’s there for the taking let alone the play offs. No one is really running away with it so this will be our best chance to go up. The sooner we get another couple of attackers in and I agree about a DM and empty our...
all I’m saying is that while you can’t deny the effort he’s putting in (out of form was poor choice of words by me), it might have helped him focus more on the chances he gets because otherwise he will be replaced. You can’t deny he’s missed some sitters.
Agree you can’t fault his effort (out of form was poor choice of words by me) what I mean is that his focus for taking chances may have been sharpened.
I wonder if Harris has come into form because of the transfer window opening? Previously he’s known he’s going to play most weeks because of the lack of competition.
7 points off the top with a game in hand and that’s after the upheaval of a change of manager and loads of injuries. That’s encouraging because no one is running away with it and if you can get any sort of run going (like Derby) it’s there for the taking. COYY!!!
I’m yet to be convinced by Des but we are 2 points off second. I’m pretty sure we all would have taken that at the start of the season.
Things can turn quickly, we just need to stay within touching distance into January. Then we can sign a striker or two and get the injured players back.
