Away Match Day Thread 17-10-2020 L1 Peterborough United v OUFC

I would happily take a clean sheet leading to a 1-0 win from a horrific deflection in the 91st minute.

a clean sheet would be brilliant... I think we'll get the win today, but reckon, whichever defensive combination KR puts out, will ship one, due to a clanger of an error , sadly

 

[Scotchegg]

I have sleepless nights over that defence!!

It's only one player different from the one that ended last season in pretty decent form!

 

[BigCrompy]

Never usually a happy hunting ground for us. Would accept a draw but see a 3-0 defeat

2 wins, 2 draws and just the one defeat there in the last 5.

Agree we’re up against it today though.

Yeah but what a "only one player" he was for us last season.
I'm not saying the current first choiceunit won't achieve that in time, but they haven't yet...partly due to injuries. And that just underlines how thin we are at the back imho.

Hard to see past a shellacking here, hope I'm wrong.

 

[pidge]

Hopefully if Gorrin returns to the XI the rest of the midfield will be able to have a bit more freedom in how they get forward

Yes and the missing player was arguably one of the best in L1 and held our defence together

 

[Malc]

Is the game cancelled yet?

 

[pidge]

What happened to this being the best changing facility we got this season?

[oufc1991]

Whoever posted this I think it’s a really good idea forget to put the heating on ? as someone on that Twitter page says maybe we should start using ollys den for away teams to use as a changing facility

 

[behindthegoal]

Hopefully keep it under 3 goals we let in

 

[holdsteady]

Not exactly full of hope ahead of today’s game, their attack versus our defence which hasn’t played together much. Fingers crossed it’s one of those where you are surprised and come away with something.

That's an absolute disgrace!

It's just a blatant attempt to unsettle the opposition, which is unprofessional, and quite frankly pathetic, something you expect from that fat t**t at Gillignham, but I'm surprised at Peterborough for stooping this low.

While we will undoubtedly be more accommodating, decent and professional when they visit Grenoble Road, I hope we make them get changed in Olly's den, under a f*****g gazebo!

Smash em today boys!!

No Atkinson or Brannagan. Not good.

 

[greatunclekip]

Imagine being able to have Eisa on the bench. No Brannagan or Atkinson. This is not going to be pretty!

 

[Mad Dog]

Not one single defender on the bench, Atkinson's injury is obviously worse than Robbo has let on? why no defensive reinforcements were brought in is beyond me

 

[ZeroTheHero]

Atkinson obviously worse than we were told - makes the signing strategy even odder. And presumably Brannagan is injured as well.
Oh dear.
