Home Match Day Thread +++ 18/02/20 OUFC v AFC Wimbledon +++

[Berliner]

Need to get our mojo back across the field. Unfortunately AFC Dongs are just the wrong team to be playing in our current state.
1-0 to us from a set piece with at least one of our lot kicked to sh*t and doubtful for the weekend.

 

[dabigfella]

A real struggle to win. But we will manage it.

Just.

 

[Mellowyellow]

A loss would be criminal but not unsurprising. Might we see the return of Mackie...

Surely not on a night when we need to score goals. They will play him like a fiddle. A red card waiting to happen.

 

[Oxford Aesthete]

Lets hope we kick their sorry arses, 3-0 to us with Agyei winning a penalty

 

[Dolly]

I think they next 3 home games are must win! I think we'll start that run tonight, with a convincing win. 3-0 Yellows. It would do us good if Henry got on the scoresheet tonight.

 

[Yellow River]

Hopefully a comfortable home win with no new injuries or suspensions.

2-0 Browne, Holland.

 

[IsleofWightYellow]

Let’s ditch the three at the back, play an attacking team and say to the lads just go out there, express yourselves and enjoy it:

Eastwood
Long Dickie Moore Ruffels
Thorne
Henry Brannigan
Agyei Taylor Browne
​

Tell Thorne and Henry to play through balls down the channels to release Agyei and Browne. Brannigan to buzz around doing what he does best.

 

[PottersRightBoot]

Why are you dropping Forde? I’d also play Browne up the middle, and slot Holland in on flanks.

 

[Beast]

Our game in hand and it’s a must win game if we want to get back in the mix for the playoffs!

Eastwood
Long Dickie Moore Ruffles
Sykes Brannagan
Browne
Henry Taylor Agyei

Subs: Stevens Mousinho Hanson Thorne Forde Mackie Holland.

I prefer Browne playing in that more central role, as he’s alot more effective than when he plays in the wide areas.

COYY.

 

[gingerox]

Eastwood
Long Dickie Moore Ruffels
Henry Thorne Brannagan
Sykes Browne Agyei

1-0, Browne

 

[Ox4Eva]

Missing tonight as I can't get away from work on time, will take any type of win!

 

[Scotchegg]

Think it'll still be 3 at the back, depending on the mystery injury.

Eastwood
Dickie Mous Moore
Forde Thorne Brannagan Ruffels
Sykes Mackie Browne
​

Expect Brannagan, Sykes and Browne (if selected) to play with real freedom and pull the Wombles apart.

 

[unification]

Must win game if we want to be serious contenders for the playoffs.

 

[IsleofWightYellow]

Whatever formation we play and whoever is selected I just hope that we pass the ball quickly and don’t always look to simply go back to the central defenders. When players have the bravery to trust in their ability, take a touch and go past a man in midfield, they can get their head up and suddenly an attack is on...

 

[Oxfordpete]

I can’t make this evening, some idiot booked us a hotel for a few nights in Bournemouth, oh that was me, but In my defence it was before the game was rearranged to this evening. I don’t care which team is picked, I don’t care how we play. I just Want 3 points......
COYY

 

[Gary Baldi]

Could be a chilly tonight as well, especially if the wind is blowing as it has been. If that happens, I'm blaming the board for not changing the weather...

 

[greatunclekip]

Its a must win. 1-1 draw.

 

[bazzer9461]

May have missed it but have the club announced which player is injured

 

[WhyteMustard]

May have missed it but have the club announced which player is injured

Suspect it will be Taylor or Henry but they won't want to give Wimbledon any clues until the team is announced at 7pm

 

[Bigfella72]

Its a must win. 1-1 draw.

Not like you to predict we actually get some points ?
