Away Match Day Thread +++ 23/02/2019 Blackpool v OUFC Match Day Thread +++

[Gary Baldi]

My run of match thread 0-0 draws can continue here. COYY

 

[dabigfella]

Probably the best result we can hope for.

 

[AbbeyOx]

here we go again. got to be an away win. hasn't it. please.

 

[Sarge]

Quietly confident about this trip to blackpool.... this will be that elusive first away win of the season, 2-1 Henry and Ruffles .... close to a similar amount of away fans as home fans

 

[holdsteady]

Blackpool 3 Oxford 0, been predicting wins and draws all season so might as well try something different in the hope it works. Not an outlandish prediction really though, can’t say I am full of confidence, setting off for Las Blackpool in an hour looking forward to the P**s up than the match.

what happened to the clown that always said 'away defeat'?

ah that's the one. all entitled to our opinions but he was just too much

Let’s hope Robinson doesn’t break new ground with c**k-ups in selection. Where will he play Garbutt? Mous? Will he ignore Smith again? Will he play our best-performing player, Sykes? Will he draft in his unfit old mate Kashi (quoting “leadership qualities)? Will Sinclair be told to sit on the bench again thus diminishing his confidence even further? Will he change formation? Tactics? Ideas? I’m not holding my breath for anything vaguely sensible - Just prepared to be sitting in a Blackpool pub at 2:15 getting even more angry.

Hearing through the grapevine that Kyran Lofthouse is making the step up to first team squad for tomorrow

Football isn't a matter of life and death...……….. its much more important than that. Let us get to the end of the season fifth from bottom. Its not much to ask...…...is it?

He's a good prospect that lad

 

[Junior_1]

Hope so as he’s a very good right sided player. However as of yesterday he was in Oxford and aren’t the first team up north somewhere having stayed over for the Accy game?

may depend on whether the hotel is paid for up front?

Number 52 in the pic

 

[AbbeyOx]

is he midfielder or winger?

Kyran is a very promising young player from what I've seen

 

[Junior_1]

is he midfielder or winger?

He plays mostly right wing / back for the 18’s but I have seen him step into the middle occasionally. Good athlete with a very competitive streak (but controlled) who has a good tendency of chipping in with goals.
