Oxford v Wombles - Sunday.

[WTTJ]

Congrats to the Real Dons. A victory for football today over franchise fc

Wow, that was fun. I couldn't go so I watched it in a local Irish bar with a few other Dons.

To my untrained eye, we got away with a lot more than we should have done - makes a change as far as Deadman is concerned.

Up to 10th - nosebleed time.

Forgot to mention previously, credit to the Wimbledon fans who joined in the minute's applause for Lewis Mangan.

The Northampton fans are just desperate for a rivalry Eric. They should try Wycombe, they always seem to be looking for one.

Agree on the tactics being wrong and then, imo, when he changed it MApp made a mistake in bringing on Crowley. Crowley looks like a boy who has won a contest to play in a men's game. He has to toughen up or not be picked. I'd have preferred Tyler Roberts on the bench as he offers pace and trys to get involved.

It's literally the first Oxford related comment I've made all season, nice to see it had the desired effect

Ahhh, Mr Deadman making his mark again.

I admit that I didn't mind the substitution when it was made. I don't feel like I have seen enough of Crowley to really know what we have, and he seems the type to get the ball down and run at people, which is what I wanted to see us try.

That said, it was a pretty disappointing performance. Passing without looking straight into a crowd of Wimbledon shirts. Not chasing things down. Letting the ball run out of play for a Wimbledon throw. Too much lost possession and a few cases where he needs to wise up to L1 players if he is going to be a success.

But Northampton have at least four fans, many with Internet connections, so you can understand how one comment from each every ten games gets a bit tedious.
