We looked good without being incisive in the first half. In the second, though, Coventry have been good value for their lead. Not especially potent themselves but the momentum of the game has shifted dramatically since the break.

 

[Johnox37en]

There goes my prediction. FFS

 

[Osleroad]

Maybe Garbutt and Smith should have been on from the start..discuss

 

[ljs]

Shipperley's shelled it over the deadball line, never going to get it.

Then again, Mitchell gives the ref no choice.

So it was s penalty...

I thought we were poor in the first half, and worse this.

 

[manor96]

YES! Beaks.

 

[unification]

Good cross that and woeful from Coventry defending it.

They let Obika score there.

 

[radicalox]

Well at least last 5 mins will be interesting.

 

[Sarge]

was that the first oxford attempt ON target?

Sam Smith actually did sterling work on their keeper.

 

[bashamwonderland]

Damn. Enjoy your couch.

No I had the displeasure of actually watching the game from the stadium

 

[ljs]

Robinson 20 minutes too slow with the forward subs.

 

[cassox]

10 seconds left and they pass sideways....sums them up i think

 

[greatunclekip]

Really poor second half. Long old season ahead.

 

[andystroud]

FFS! If I was actually attendance, I'd probably leave now.

Why?

 

[Sith Lord]

Says it all seconds to go and we P**s around playing sideways!!

If we equalised that would be just papering over the cracks... I am worried about the season ahead already and I am normally pragmatic person.

 

[Londonroader1]

Second half performance was w**k !

Today’s made me angry. Its been nowhere near good enough. We’ve now conceded more goals than anyone else, we failed in the summer to address the shortcomings up front - something that everybody saw - and he signed Mackie... We might have started with lots of possession today but there was no real zip or penetration. Our first shot on target came midway through the second half ffs.

I didn’t know by the end whether seeing Robinson up on the bloody gantry annoyed me or I just felt sorry for him.. I’ve had enough of the excuses of injuries and training ground. Whether they’re fair excuses or not, it doesn’t excuse the lack of passion, organisation and preparation.

 

[radicalox]

Am i the only one who didn't think we were that bad? I mean we were very average and of course lost but were hardly dominated by Coventry.

 

[Shropshire U]

Awful. No sense of a cohesive team. Baptiste, Nelson and Henry did ok as individuals but the rest look League 2 at best. And Mackie looks Sunday league. At best.
