Gloucester Saint

Wasn’t aware that I did tbh. Like most on here, @Farmer Saint included, I agree with some posts and not with others, but I try to rationalise why I do/don't. Sometimes people will agree with my response, sometimes they won’t. And sometimes I find I agree with people on football but less on non-football and vice versa. First league win since February - enjoy it!

Yeah, shows how bad Martin’s judgement was that he preferred Smallbone to be DMC, although he’s been making much better signings for Rangers. Shea is different league to Smallbone, no offence to Will. Smallbone is moving on I suspect.

I think he was aiming that at Nic…

Now playing an ambulance noise when an Oxford player is bleeding from a clash of heads.

87, was in the Archers that night. As @Lighthouse said, Lambert’s double at Millwall was first to mind. Bolton in the cup but that involved extra time.

@Farmer Saint looks older than I thought he’d be

Yes, and as I promised, if Gavin plays well, makes point winning saves and gets that consistency in the basics, he will get praise. One swallow doesn’t make a summer but a good game to build upon.

Key for Gavin is to keep it going - match winning save today, not lots of work to do but solid with what he did have. It was a decent penalty but something to improve with the positioning.

That was the Ryan Manning who I thought we were signing and who I’d seen playing for Swansea with goals and lots of assists.

Commentator in the Oxford v Filth game says ‘you can hear that bell in the away end’. So the skates sat around him both get deafened and nausea from the pungent stink in these temperatures of BO and stale Carling. Almost feel sorry for them..almost. Oxford winger we are interested in hasn’t featured much so far but quality is dreadful overall from both sides.

Bazunu save crucial. Can’t agree with you there Jack but well done on the late winner. Ryan Manning Swansea edition that we actually signed and Leeds wanted showed up. Fraser definitely a good squad fixture this season. Need 2 or 3 good wide quality starters and a #10. Edwards rotten, Sugawara not much better, Quarshie mixed bag as you’d expect. Wellington good overall. Stewart looked more refined than Downs but the latter did unsettle Coady finally. Robinson some promising moments and nice feet, needs to pack a punch with his shots and used to getting fouls in the u23s that he won’t get in the men’s staff. Lallana struggled early in his career with that and ideal to help Jay. Charles excellent, Downes rusty but got minutes under belt. AA terrible game, might have played himself out of the XI until October there.

Downs needs to make it far harder for Ward there.

McClean is an arsehole.

- Ryan Manning scores a cracking free kick!

Tbf we are so top heavy there isn’t one. The forwards have almost got in one another’s way.

Very good Bazunu. Least of our problems today.

Bet the cunt doesn’t add the time on as well. Not that we’d score anyway. Another slow delivery for Ward to catch.

I’ve played in Tyro League matches with more quality. So scrappy.

Our crossing is worse than Richard Dawkins.

Lack of quality too. Relying on ricochets and deflections to get a clear sight of goal.

Fuck off ref. Bent.

Risky shirt pull, we’ve had those given against us. Ref has missed two. Charles is giving the ref a load.

Stephens did his best with that but another delivery without any pace to work with to get it up and down, Wrexham put a peach in but nobody attacks it thankfully.
