Away Match Day Thread 13/01/2024 L1: Carlisle United v OUFC

[Carpy]

More confident of a win than I was a week ago, will be a critical month for us if we want to maintain a promotion push, let's start with 3 points against Carlisle!

The slow nature of our play means we make it difficult for ourselves to get any momentum

Not that I like Reading, but owners do P**s me off, especially when ultimately the fans suffer.

Dai has invested 200 million pounds but Reading are out of their depth.

Dreadful game - to poor teams at the moment. We do not look top six and haven’t since Manning left!

Don’t think we’ve won an individual battle yet. One of those days where the ball isn’t sticking to Harris again and we’re not nearly positive enough when we have the ball.

Watching on iFollow. We’re looking a little stale. Carlisle look very poor though. We go up a gear and we should win this.

An odd lack of goals so far this afternoon. Only one in the whole of L1!

 

[ZeroTheHero]

I don't understand what we are trying to do (which is a bit of a theme for me recently). We are SO slow going forward and so happy to go backwards that we aren't getting near their penalty area - it seems we are hoping for another 25-35 yard thunderbolt to score, and you really cannot rely on that. Carlisle (one of the worst teams in the division) are dealing with us fairly easily so far and we are helping them do it.

Could be us if the stadium doesn’t get the go ahead or shortly after it’s completed if they b****r off!

Yeah. Rivals or not, it’s totally s**t when owners f**k over the fans to the extent that they have there.

Thank fk they are as bad when in sight of goal as we are ... so far.

We should but will we - we look awful

 

[yellowbow]

I have to say I’m getting really concerned with the lack of any urgency or passion in our play, game after game, recently.

 

[uptheus]

wake up MM

He really pisses my off as it’s obvious he had the attributes, but f*****g dicks around so much. I think being at Barcelona probably taught him too much play acting/dicking around

 

[notThisWayButThat]

That's a lot of fans not turning up next match because of a match day ban

 

[greatunclekip]

We are totally boring. An absolute snorefest to watch.

 

[bazzer9461]

This red and black kit is s**t play in the Blue or Yellow of Oxford

 

[Jster]

Orient go 1 up at Portsmouth!

 

[uptheus]

Don’t blame them

 

[uptheus]

This red and black kit is s**t okay in the Blue or Yellow of Oxford

Just yellow

 

[Chippy]

Almost half an hour and not a single goal attempt against one of the poorest sides in the league. I thought Des was an attacking style manager, it’s like he’s too frightened to try and change the way we set up and play, and to put his own stamp on the playing methodology
