TV Highlights Oxford 0 - 2 Southend

Forums New posts
keep your eye on Thommo at about 1:32 he spots the danger and reacts to save a certain goal.

People have said poor defending by Oxford but we did have plenty of bodies in the box for the first goal. For the second, Theo's little nudge and sharp well timed movement looks like good forward play rather than poor defending.

agreed, I would even ponder the question, has Ranger not being available for selection actually helped us? i.e Fortune has been given more opportunity than he would have ?

Yes. And a good candidate for Player of the Year.

Coventry let him go didn't they? I will try to remember to go on a Coventry fan site before our game with them on 14th March and ask them for their views on the player.

It will be a real kick in the teeth (another one for them this season) is Fortune plays a blinder against Coventry.

Thommo does do well (someone mentioned this on the match report), however if you freeze it at 1.34 or before, what is going on with our marking- its as bad as theirs for Fortune's goal . I agree with you on Theo's goal - is that something from the training ground?

Something else I have moticed is that it seems that every match we manage to save one off the line . I don't know if it feels like it , or if I am factually correct but its a big plus as far as I am concerned (

Good point - when Eastwood got a ban, our results didn't falter - as we all expected they might.
 
Agree about the comments about Fortune and might have to amend my thoughts regarding player of the year - simply been outstanding since he has had a decent run in the team. Splinters in the arse time for Ranger me feels! (isn't nice to have a damn decent squad for a change)
