Away Match Day Thread +++ 18/01/20 Gillingham v OUFC L1 +++

Just a point, but Gillingham have been strong at home.

Disappointing

 

[chuckbert]

Meh

No need to panic though. Looking at the league table we’re still right in the mix for the play offs at least. I think we would’ve all taken that at the start of the season. Apart from a poor first half against Rotherham we’re playing ok and we’re not on a losing run. Stay positive everyone!

 

[oufc1991]

Rubbish not good enough if you want promotion you
Beat crap like that I’m afraid

Level on points with Sunderland and Portsmouth now. There's a lot more teams in the mix than I realised.

 

[NorthWestOx]

b****r 94th minute winner for whycombe

 

[Dubai Yellow]

An away point is always considered good, but 2 from a possible 12 is not a good return at all. No need to panic. Hopefully we get some luck with injuries and start to turn it around.

Now I'm in ifollow/radox limbo.

Agyei did more in 30 minutes than Mackie has done all season. Thought we were bang average today. Created very little as per norm.

 

[cassox]

What a load of sh1te,embarrasingly timewasting and give away a pathetic penalty,we have gone from a team who pass and move to a team of hoofers.....promotion??? not with that lot...... hurry up and return Henry,Taylor and Brannigan.......else not a chance.

 

[Johnox37en]

Shame it wasn't to be but, given the opposition, a point is better than nothing.

 

[unification]

An unsurprising result.

We move on.

 

[Oxymoron]

Only team in the top 7 not to win today.........

Watched the game on ifollow. The standard of some of the players, and refs in this league are shocking. I'm not sure what has gone on with us, we would of finished them in the first half last year. But we tried a Wycombe and time wasted to try and hold on and ultimately we have got punished by a pen. Gillingham offered nothing except the pen they scored. On that showing play offs at best.

The debate of Agyei versus Mackie has just gone up a notch. Intelligent runs, great hold up play, gave no fouls away, good pace that forced the gills defense to sit ten yards deeper.

from what I saw today I’d definitely have him above Mackie in the pecking order

 

[Made-in-Jericho]

Disappointing run of form at the moment, have to take the positives where we can find them: we held on for a point, previous seasons would have lost, we’re still in the mix and the transfer window is still open. Desperately need to strengthen upfront.

 

[Thomas/Brock/Jones]

Games in hand on us could see us drop out of play offs ....needed to go on and win that after such a great start. Long way to go but starting to get worried as we cannot score enough !

 

[Gary Baldi]

Wow, the moaners are a go on Rad Ox... Perhaps some perspective is needed there

It’s becoming more and more apparent each week that Mackie offers very little to the cause. I see Kayden Jackson scored for Ipswich today, a very good striker. Against us they had Keane and Norwood. These are the types of squads we’re competing with in the promotion race.
