Drew 1-1with Leeds. Played pretty well overall and finally have found a decent looking defence and looking much better organised. Too late I fear. New signings have been largely a disappointment but Aasgaard and Makosso look like 2 players we could rebuild around. Indeed if I was Aasgaard I’d...

Hilarious own goal wins it for us. Only way I could see us scoring as Morris looks injured and Adebayo frankly hopeless. Gove Adebayo his due though, his first half shot that hit the post was the first clean strike of a football I’ve seen in probably over a year from him (am not joking) Hull...

As ever this season, we are back from a break and in worse shape than when we left off. Jones obviously getting a injury in International duty so possible re-shuffle in defence as we dont have a viable RWB alternative of any quality. Could be Doughty shifting across too RWB, Bell LWB and Burke...

Ridiculous how we haven’t won the game today. Boro could have had no complaints had it been 3-0 at half time. Second half we didn’t have as many chances but still had the McGuinness header First half we missed some ridiculous chances, Aasgaards looked the best but Adebayo 1v1 also. He just has...

Won an absolutely awful game 2-1. First half was conference standard I think, went a goal down before a wonder goal from Clark seemed to give us a bit of life Makes the bottom of the table look a bit tighter than it did especially with Derby getting back to back wins. Do think our fixtures are...

Cardiff away tonight. Been said a couple of times but this is really last chance saloon stuff for those who retain the hope we might stay up. Don’t see at all from this group to be honest. Doesn’t say a great deal for our January business that we are still rolling with Adebayo and Morris as a...

Yep that’s the one. He’s never going to reach all the add ons to make it the reputed 10m with where we are headed but it’s still in the 5/6 range He’s strange because he looks solid for the most part and then will suddenly just drop an absolute howler. He just can’t concentrate for a full game...

Speaking of sumo, hope someone at the club kept his number, probably do better than the current shite we have playing centre half - including our club record signing

Another chapter being written in our disaster of a season. Naismith, our only half decent looking defender and upon all hopes are pinned, sent off and now suspended for a potentially huge game midweek and a McGuinness og. We weren’t getting anything here regardless but my god we have to do it...

Burnley away today. Interesting for a couple of reasons, can we build on the albeit slightly stodgy win last weekend to get something from this game, even a scrappy 0-0 draw or something I think would be a pretty good achievement. We haven’t shown anything like the resilience required to do...

I think the bottom 3 is pretty set to be honest, no one in it, including ourselves look in anyway capable of putting together a run, so I’d say Oxford are pretty comfortable with another win and a couple of draws which should be easily gettable

Problem is I think it’s harming us. When your midfield 3 is Clark, Walsh, Aasgaard you don’t really want them spending most of the game looking up. Aasgaard in particular looks a quality player but we haven’t been able to get him into games at home bar one half against Sheffield United because...

Forgot what winning felt like. Felt like the players had too as they looked totally unsure how to see a game out but we did. Whether this is a moment where we finally regain some form in less sure though as we weren’t exactly in control. Awful game of football again, the pitch at Kenilworth...

Portsmouth at home today. Probably a last chance saloon type game for us as likely our last realistic chance to kick start a survival bid but I’ve personally long written that off Of course it wouldn’t be a Luton game without us going in with some injury issues, Nakamba out for the season...

As for “misses” of the season, Elijah Adebayo step right forward. He’s been atrocious this year but was curious enough to seek out exactly how bad. Most “big chances” missed all season by an absolute mile. Pretty incredible considering we don’t actually create all that much. Underperforming...
