I noticed the stats for the play-off final suggested something similar to this. Pretty sure it was like 75% Oxford possession. It might work well for them in this division in terms of staying up, mind. Link to post Share on other sites

I bet teams like Peterborough are fuming at the Wycombe promotion. Link to post Share on other sites

They also have no reserve or academy teams either and their squad's average age is just a bit over 28 years old. Yet they have been promoted. Link to post Share on other sites

You were very pessimistic on weekend predicting we were definitely down. Hope tonights results give you some room for optimism. Link to post Share on other sites

Hope tonights results give you some room for optimism. I'm very pleased with today as had expected Reading to outplay us. Think we still need one more point to guarantee safety. Barnsley are pretty much down as they have Leeds, Forest and Brentford left to play. Hull will effectively be down if Luton beat them on Saturday as their final game is against Cardiff who will be trying to get a playoff spot. Would have been happier if Luton had lost tonight as they have two very winnable games against Hull who are very poor and Blackburn who seem to be on holiday already. Think it's between us, Brum, Luton, Charlton, Huddersfield and Stoke for the other relegation spot and it may go to the last match. I am expecting our games against Cardiff and Weds to be very tough. Cardiff are way better than us (unless Warnock can beat or contain them on tactics) and Sheffield Wednesday and Monk hate us. Link to post Share on other sites
Brunners 7,952 Posted July 14, 2020 Share Posted July 14, 2020 Here is a nice handy image that shows remaining fixtures (before todays games) & with the 12 points deducted already. Barnsley, Charlton & Stoke with the hardest run ins IMO. The Luton vs Hull game is season defining for both clubs & potentially others around them too. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

Aye, there's a couple where they seem to be doubling up on following a man into the box when the ball is in Wigan's possession just outside the area. Completely asking for it.

RiseAgainst 3,781 Posted July 15, 2020 Share Posted July 15, 2020 That highlights reel would be much more enjoyable if it wasn't for the weird farty noise through the PA after every goal. Even so, the last goal is incredible 😍 Link to post Share on other sites
Brunners 7,952 Posted July 15, 2020 Share Posted July 15, 2020 I think Jamal Lowe basically doubled his seasons tally for goal contributions in that game with 1g 3a. Link to post Share on other sites
