Some rally random comments on here.

[QR]

passionate fans who put our atmosphere to shame.

Bullshit.

The atmosphere reflected the state of play on the pitch. Tabled turned they would have been on the back of their team.

Lee weighed in with some useful goals - admittedly poor in the playoffs but on a free wouldn't be too bad a shout

I dont think there is room for both henry and lee in the same team. Both are slow and weak in the tackle. Too easily doninated against decent teams.

"You're f*****g s**t"

We held an applause for one of their own in the home leg in the 9th minute.

Having a round of applause for a young lad tragically killed is absolutely the right thing to do and I was was happy to do it on Tuesday night, and proud of OUFC fans for how well everyone in attendance that evening respected it. However I really don't think that makes us exempt from a few standard football chants when we've been deservedly beaten over two games of football.

Dan Agyei simply has to play more next season. As good as Barker can be, Dan has contributed far more and rightly deserves his chance next season. I would also like to see KR’s plan B to involve Dan playing as a striker.

They responded much better to going 1-0 down than we did. And they were louder. It's a fact.

I’m sorry QR but my Nan made more noise than us on Tuesday night…

Shes been dead for 15 years.

Sorry, but I think we can do a lot better than Lee, even on a free, it's a squad place that could be better filled elsewhere in the squad

Calling for Robinson to go after two consecutive play off campaigns?
Absolute melts.
I’m looking forward to this summer and next season with Karl at the helm.

Certainly wouldn't want him ahead of Henry - Lee was certainly poor when it mattered - would be happy to have Shodipo back

Personally I thought it was really s**t of them. We've shown them respect. Show some back.

And why was their round of applause before the game, and ours was during the game? I have no problem with both, but ours did disrupt the flow of the game.

But isnt that the point... Blackpool prevented a real atmosphere kicking off at home because they silenced us.

Well f**k me there’s a surprise. Of course they did, they were already 3-0 up from the first leg!!

certainly not unhappy if we can get somebody better

They also weren't wearing masks and no distancing was being observed, no wonder the infection rate is high in the North West and why when we were in Tier's they were in the worst one.

Indeed but hardly embarrassing surely?

The harsh reality is that we weren't remotely in the tie for ~160 minutes.

Indeed.

Too much bed wetting on here tonight.

Completely agree with what Robinson just said on sky about needing more power and athleticism. We are neat and tidy and the likes of Sykes and Brannagan, although slight in stature, can get stuck in but there’s clearly more physical presence needed in midfield, out wide and up front.

I think respect for a 9 year old boy who was tragically killed is totally different to respect over a game of football.

I think Mcguane and Gorrin (when fit) will certainly go towards providing that..
