It was like watching two sharks with rubber teeth trying to nudge each other to death. Lots of swift movement and threatening intent with absolutely no bite up front. Sure, Oxford are pretty to watch and had the majority of the posession, but so what? There's no posession column on the league table. Neither side deserved to win and neither side did. We've got a decent side and if we can just get reinforcements up front we'll have a decent shout at getting promoted. MOTM Tom Bonner, resolute as always.
Spot on as always Spike

No thing to add apart from I do wonder what goes through Walls mind sometimes that was a clear foul on their player he stood on his ankle. People shouting to the ref you don’t know what you are doing was wrong Wall was 100% to be booked.
He then has to play the next 60 minutes without getting booked.
Their number 3 knew this and then played on it for the rest of the game!
I couldn’t believe people were shouting that to the ref either.
On one hand, it’s natural to be defiant of decisions which go against your team, however it is a bit awkward when the decision is patently between yellow and red, rather than yellow or no card.
The ref didn’t have a good game yesterday, but that was clearly a booking.

The problem with Wall is he’s a safe bet, long before kick off, for a yellow. BUT, I have noticed a decrease in his silliness. That bit where he’s forever standing on defenders’ toes. Wonder if someone has had a word? He was once described him in here as a ‘runaway sideboard,’ which is a bit unfair. I’m sure a runaway sideboard would jump occasionally.

Hey SD, you leave my Alex alone!

Of course someone has had a word with Alex SD, Dennis Kurtreib. As for being an potential manager surely putting two strikers on the pitch would have shown Oxford City that we were interested.
I have no doubt that Dowse has been there and got the T shirt, so I will leave it up to him. Lets hope we have it in the tank to now finish 2nd now that we have opened up a gap of sorts. But at the moment that is debatable.
