    Going to be a long half I’ve never seen a Barnsley side make as many basic defending mistakes as what we’ve seen this season

    Shep tried a suicidal diving header to his keeper but completely fluffed it. Great save got us off the hook again

    Jack's only young and it's a big step up for him. Fair play to him that he's giving his all, not letting his mistakes get him down!

    This is a half for keeping it simple clear our lines take no chances just do the basics

    I appreciate that but that was schoolboy defending we got lucky there.

    The problem is doing “THE BASICS”

    This is going to be a long half. I'm happy for them to try and play it around, as they're more likely to give possession away then given the conditions. We just need to deal with it any way we can at the back. Even the basics are 10 times harder in this weather.

    Not only a poor header but he threw himself to the floor, Row z was the option there. All a learning curve for him.

    Never mind this season, I've never seen a Barnsley side make as many basic defending mistakes as we made in the first 15 minutes last Tuesday

    Id still love to know how 2 players can hold both of Cosgroves arms virtually hugging him and he gets a foul against him.

    I agree. He look like he’s our long throw-in option, when Cotter is not on the field.

    He almost is a schoolboy though, he was kitchen fitting in the summer, he's not had the luxury of playing in the u21s first!

    How are the Oxford commentary team objecting to the foul on Cosgrove?

    He’s learning quickly. It takes time to sink in; you can’t faucet.

    Why is Cosgrove 2 foot shorter when he jumps?

    They are marginally biased. Keep saying "and Barnsley pump it forward again"....as if Oxford are playing like Citeh.
