I agree. up until 17 minutes in we looked very comfortable. Some nice passing forward interplay and movement around the edge of the box, albeit without getting a shot away.

Then Oxford bossed it till about 38 minutes, last 10 of the first half was mostly us too.

Second half it got a bit hectic and Oxford were simply better at passing and moving. We just lumped it for the most part.

Pidge allowing his man to get across him was criminal. He'll be punching walls when he sees it back.

I thought Kemp and Reid were off the pace today.

I thought Magennis looked decent again.

TVC, Lewis and Pidge havent gelled together yet. They are still 3 seperate defenders rather than a unit. That'll come.

Marschall's kicking was shite today.

Saxon was all action but no guile.

Houghton had a decent game, I'm not his biggest fan. But hes solid, zero creativity. Louis T was anonymous in terms of creating anything or carrying the ball into the final third.

We really lacked any clever play second half, no-one could see and execute the clever pass. If Kemp doesn't do it, no-one does.
