    Is luka injured, poorly or is it the coach just doesn't like him. Because i honestly do not know how or why he keeps going back to Russell

    He was injured, came back sooner than expected and was subbed off at half time. I'm assuming it's the sane injury?

    He’s obviously not fit.

    My heart sinks, any time I see Jon Russell’s name in the line up. Another chance to prove me wrong, I guess.

    It's nonsense what he's put Gally I agree, but the sentiment is right. It's the 23rd now, the squad is as weak as piss the minute you get beyond the best 11 players, and it looks like yet again we will weaken before we do any strengthening. What the hell are they playing it?

    Seeing our threadbare squad, it's probably a good thing the Stevenage game was postponed.

    My concern is williams and shepherd are shocking so that's a weak defence. Russell protecting them is poor. Also note how many crosses we do and can't find a striker. We really need Cosgrove to now step upto the plate when given game time

    It's a weak squad. Let's hope out attacking quality can get us over the line. We have **** all on the bench, other than Lopata, so no one can blame Collins for not changing things, if we start badly. I would hope I'm wrong, but we look to be in for a difficult night.

    Just remember NC changed things round at half-time in the last game and changed the result.
    Maybe we should have a bit of faith.

    I do not rate Cosgrove at all. He has two left feet and can't head a ball. Good luck with that. Hope I'm proved wrong obviously. Watters is even worse. Not sure where Jalo is?

    We're two more injuries away from a massive problem if they don't get their fingers out of their collective arses ASAP.

    We might lose and we may play poorly - but let’s have a go first!

    To say we are supposed to have a bloated squad, looking at the team sheet tonight suggests otherwise

    I'd love to play against someone with an insane injury.
    Mad as a loony.

    It’s windy and rainy what could go wrong with Shepherd at the back let’s hope Oxford haven’t seen him finding it really difficult when a ball is played over his head (I rate him I just think he’s all come too soon for him). Russell runs like he’s wearing lead boots. Do well to take a point tonight.

    Admittedly the bench looks poor, but you never know if the 2 young lads might actually be worthy of their places on merit. Lets give them an opportunity to prove their worth before writing them off.

    Just got to get behind them & hope the lads coming in can do a job. There’s no point moaning about Russell when Styles & Benson are also unavailable. You’re literally going to the academy after that

    I hope we do, but tactical changes are very limited, unless we try & play two keepers...

    Me too, always hope and pray he will prove me wrong but rarely does.
