Why though? Overachieving with our budget surely.One more season for KR not promoted next season then that has to be it, the clock is ticking

Play like you give a s**t Ruffs jesus
He is definitely going
Exactly this. I don't think any of us had really appreciated how good Blackpool are, I certainly hadn't, but they finished third for a reason. We had our chances, we gifted them the crucial first goal, on another day maybe the rub of the green is with us. But no shame in losing to them.Snuck into the playoffs at the death, came up against a really good Blackpool team. We weren't as bad as the score reflected, we had chances, Henry and Sykes in particular, and didn't take them, but you have to give credit to Blackpool because they are a very good side and on the day they turned up and showed us why they finished where they did. I'm less upset losing 3-0 to Pool than I was losing to Wycombe because it's clear to see they are just better than we are. I'll tune in on Friday, cheer us on, and hopefully we can at least keep things interesting till the end of the 90.
Exactly, what is the point in supporting a club if you give up so easily.If we can get an early goal, its game on.
Always proud of the club, up the U's!
Hanson didnt do anything wrong. Ruffels on the other hand.
Think that'll be the last we see of sicknote at oufc.
Hanson was absent - we didnt have a right back for much of the game - abysmal all around. Player performances : No one more than a 4. We made them look like superstars. The scum would have hammered us today270 minutes + against Blackpool and we haven’t scored against them. As mentioned in this thread, they’re a resolute outfit. They managed that game superbly and were fabulously clinical. I’m very impressed by them.
That was a let down. It was obvious we were the junior partner of the two teams but I expected more from us. A bit more spark and more ideas. The belief looked drained from us from the 70th minute onwards. Sam Winnall going off was a final insult.
Still, it’s not totally over. 90 more minutes to go and at the very least give Blackpool a game. A 1-0 win would feel like a moral victory of sorts.
You do wonder whether the game would have been different had Sam Long been involved ...
Agree. Goes back to not having adequate defensive cover.He doesn’t do a lot right either. He’s just ordinary. Good enough for a game against Northampton. Not dynamic enough to tackle the top six sides.
Not a total dud like Pekalski but in terms of return on investment he’s been found wanting.
