You bastard...now I'm going to have to miss the next two and a half minutes of the game.

That long?

[lambtiss]

Nice to see US time wasting for a change

[Chez]

terrible starting position from THB and Wright should score. Got away with that. Boy do they get a lot of crosses in. 

[Saint NL]

Nice to see him go off, although Simms isn't a bad replacement 

[Disco Stu]

Casper wasted that

[Saint NL]

Charles coming on

[SouSaint]

Jander bottled that. 

[Saint_clark]

Fuck sake Jander. Massive chance missed.

[obelisk]

Jander with a great chance. Looked lacking in energy.

[Hatch]

Jander bottled that,    pathetic,  as much conviction as a 4 year old

[Saint NL]

Jander should be on a hat trick now 

[scumbag]

Dogshit from Jander

[adrian lord]

Jander missed 2 now?

[Chez]

what an opportunity.

[whelk]

And Oxford now above Portsmouth

[Saint_clark]

Charles and...Archer? Hmm.

[Viking Saint]

Archer? Just why???

[Saint NL]

This is a great game btw, both teams pushing 

[Disco Stu]

Please don't bring on Archer. I'd rather play Azaz as a false 9

Charles was very poor last game and why do we persist with Archer?

Because Larin is gassed and we have no other striker options 🙁

[adrian lord]

Larin hammy.

[Saint NL]

Same as the home game, away team go down to ten men when leading (bringing Archer on is the same as a red card)

[obelisk]

Those subs make us weaker.

[CB Fry]

We're going to lose a lot with Larin off. The ball is just going to keep coming back.

[Saint_clark]

I guess if Larin needs to come off we aren't blessed with many options up front. 

Shocked Jander isn't coming off though.

[hypochondriac]

Hmm. Archer up top on his own? I'd have given the young lad a go.

[SNSUN]

Archer redemption arc loading....

[saint michael]

Archer 🫣

Oyekunle

[bugenhagen]

Archer... our offence is now gone. We will struggle. Down to 10 men

[Disco Stu]

This feels like poor game management

Jander been ok apart from the two chances 

[Lighthouse]

I guess Coventry are sort of rivals for Villa, it could work.

[macca155]

Archer should occupy them but wrong to take off Bragg. Bet Downes is over run now

It is 

[CB Fry]

Honestly this was the role I thought Aribo could have done this season, holding things up as a CF for 20 mins.

Archer definitely cannot do it.

Shea Charles is more than an able replacement in midfield.

[Turkish]

Loaning on Bree will never not be a really weird decision 

[chownie20]

Is Larin injured?

[SNSUN]

20 minutes to hold on plus IT. This could be attack vs defence.

Knackered

[CB Fry]

We can't play the next twenty minutes in our own penalty area.

[Saint_clark]

As predicted, ball goes forward to Archer and is just nicked off him straight away. He has no awareness of what's around him. 

[Saint NL]

If he is, then we're fucked. 

Archer and some youth player until Stewart and Larin get fit...

He's been excellent. You can't knock experience and hard work. 

 

Corner Saints. 

[Patches O Houlihan]

Bree on fire

We just got out of it, phew

[Saint_clark]

Lucky to get a corner there as Azaz was way offside.

[SNSUN]

I'd be looking to sub off Matsuki soon. Been good but he tends to fade out of games.
