the cup first round v oxford city

[ONIGP]

Loved the Haringey fans singing "Sing if you're Haringey, sing if you're happy that way" to the Tom Robinson tune. Absolute class!

 

[Sparky]

Yes, you can pay cash on the gate.

Thanks RLC

they are bringing a fair few . should be a good game going for a hard 2-0 or 2-1

 

[aldoes mustache]

they also played realy well to esp second half . the wombles where rubish can see why they are struggling

 

[Ian]

Think we’ll jog to 3-0 victory here.

I thought ex-Dover winger Mitch Pinnock was good for Wimbledon. Ex-Maidstone striker Joe Piggott less so.

 

[Higgy]

4-1 today. 2 or 3 second half goals.

Probably bring a couple of hundred

Harris in for McCullough, otherwise unchanged.

 

[Boz]

A little surprised at the near unchanged line-up. Tollitt gets a speck on the bench. Trying the Kop for a change, though the upper part is closed. With half an hour to ko looks like a fairly sparse crowd.

 

[Ian]

Bit of a poor half that one. Rovers not really getting out of first gear. Need to ramp up the pressure second half and put this to bed.

 

[Rockford's Love Child]

I don't think the 451 works in games like this. Too congested in midfield and Norwood is isolated. I would bring Smith on and go 442.

 

[Boz]

Started brightly, but had a let-off when Oxford had a goal chalked off for off-side. Looked like we’d weathered the storm when Connor put us in front, only for what looked like a Harris error letting their lad in for the leveller.

There are a lot of complacent or below par performances from Rovers this far. Hope Micky gives them a rollicking at h/t. Unsure what changes I’d make, like Smith but will he get stuck in enough?

 

[Boz]

Not sure I’d have gone Tollitt for Mullin though...

 

[Ian]

Getting what we deserved here. 2-1 to visitors.

 

[Rockford's Love Child]

We were utter garbage and by rights should be out the f the FA Cup. Well played Oxford.

 

[Boz]

Sadly what Ian & RLC say above. Too complacent from Rovers lucky we’re still in the Cup.

 

[drwhoman]

Disappointing. Missed McCullough?

 

[Sparky]

Dear me. First home game I’ve missed this season and a result I never expected. Will Wait any sports but sounds like it was just complacency?

 

[bring back the cowshed!]

Sounds like a lucky escape. Hope that's a wake up call for the replay and also the rest of the season. You've got to keep up the pressure.
