[Carpy]

 

[Berliner]

"Hmm, I love playing five at the back with three centre backs. So for a change I'll play four at the back with everyone in their wrong positions."

Talbot levels of randomness, this.

 

[ubermeistervonmeat]

I mean Rowett had his critics, and rightly so, but does someone want to explain the thinking behind hiring a version of him without a gameplan?

And then giving him carte blanche to bring in players he wanted

 

[bazzer9461]

Come on lads , get one back before halftime.

 

[Sarge]

Really lino?

 

[bazzer9461]

What have we got our on the pitch tonight?

 

[EastStandKieran]

Can I go home yet

 

[bazzer9461]

This is quite pathetic

 

[Northstandboy]

Can’t wait for the RadOx interview, if MB does one tonight.

 

[bazzer9461]

Can I go home yet

I got in the car and thought nah watching the warmth and boy am I glad……

 

[Pgyellow]

Where are our leaders?

 

[yellowbow]

Can we just get Harris off? I’d rather we play with 10

 

[Sarge]

We've been s**t. As has the ref

 

[bazzer9461]

Ok recruitment team wake up and talk nite on how to do a good transfer window

 

[MiddleBartonYellow]

I have work at 05:30 AM tomorrow and I'm seriously considering packing this in already.

That’s why I am watching at home, actually think that ski jumping would be a better watch.

 

[Malc]

Norwich are timewasting at every opportunity

 

[Barbadosyellow]

I had to count the number of our players on the pitch. It looks like 9 v 11.

 

[bazzer9461]

Ref you stupid Cnut

 

[Hackney Jack]

Is MB the man???....doesn't look like it...FED ON BULLSHIT WE ARE

I think MB coming in and most of our Janaury signings shows the board are planning for next season.

Start a football match with Mark Harris and Placenta and you just ent gunna win...

 

[Osleroad]

Why mess about trying to be to clever. And now in trouble chasing.
We look all at sea at the back, and as for Cumming.

We look like we only have half a team out there

 

[SamLongSlidingTackle]

Can see Cam Bran getting sent off

 

[OxfordBoy]

Norwich are timewasting at every opportunity

Very harsh on them imo, there still massively outplaying us

 

[Sarge]

Show some fight Oxford

 

[The Curragh Of Kildare]

Don't forget we are also playing a centre back at left back

Remarkable that we have six full backs on the books - Spencer, Long and Ter Avest for right back and Currie, Roosken and Leigh for left back - and none are starting in that position tonight.

 

[Osleroad]

It’s going to be a long night…….

I call it purgatory

 

[Londox]

What the actual f..k was Bloomfield thinking tonight with this back 4.

How can a club that wants to stay up keep picking a striker who doesn't score goals to start?

Clueless and embarrassing first half and if bloom doesn't change it at half time he's lost me.

 

[90syeIlow]

I’ve been relatively ok with Bloomfield’s lineups and tactics so far, but he got tonight so wrong that I wouldn’t be surprised if we lose 5-0.

What the f**k are Roosken and Davies doing on the bench?

 

[Sarge]

Forward not backwards

 

[Sir Winston]

Commentator just called us Oxford City . (Playing like them I suppose, no disrespect )

 

[bazzer9461]

We’re being torn apart

 

[bazzer9461]

Definitely League one next season lads and lasses
