Also don’t get people knocking them for going mad when they won it? If you can’t celebrate an extra time winner then when can you?
St maximin ended up being the difference I think any team would have struggled to keep that goal out. The best aspect of the night for me was the fact we matched them man for man all over the pitch in technique and fitness. Surely league one should be a doddle(I wish)!
Amazed at some oc the comments on here about Kelly after he came on ( overweight and not a footballer??) To me he looked a good footballer and a cracking goal.
SemanticsAgyei didn't replace Mackie.
Agyei did NOT not miss a sitter, Ritchie was on the ground covering the ball.And yet on Radio Oxford after the match he praised other players and all he said about Agyei was that he “missed a sitter”. Cheers for that Karl. Let’s just overlook the lad’s positivity and the fact that it was his pace, power and directness that won Kelly’s free kick. He’ll love hearing that back, I’m sure. Also good to know that Ritchie throwing his body in the way of that ‘sitter’ couldn’t have meant much. Not often you hear a manager practically having a sulk over a player doing well. Weird.
Another enjoyable adventure comes to an end with the team able to hold their heads up high. Games galore in L1 coming up now - bring it on.
Fitness had a lot to do with how that game panned out. For the first 70 minutes Newcastle’s tactics were spot on, they pressed us, they double marked, they treated us with a lot of respect. They then lost their discipline and their our passing quality began to hurt them.
Once Taylor et al came on it was anyone’s game.
Our subs were again spot on, Robinson ?.
It’s the thing these days to use superlatives to describe modest success but OUFC performances against higher ranked cup sides this season have been little short of sensational.
Despite injuries, despite players being sold, we keep it going. Proud of the lads and let’s go on and finish the season with a win at Wembley. We are plenty good enough to go up.
Would probably come with gametime. Must be demoralising seeing Mackie start every week ahead of both him and Taylor
Why are you complaining about Sam Long? He was tremendous.woken up gutted we didn't get the result as we could have, we pretty much said go on have a shot for all 3 of there goals and got punished. Technically we have some great young players albeit not ours, last night showed our weaknesses rb and another strike option perhaps had we got them before the deadline window we could be into the 5th round anyway Hollands goal was something of beauty and looks a great asset for now. Dickie was different class last night

I’m surprised about the praise of Dickie, he’s usually immense but I thought he looked slow last night, his lack of pace was brutally exposed at times
Goodness me... I’m speechless.
Maybe watch Newcastle’s second goal again
