Match Thread vs. Oxford City 27.01.21 [FAT QF]

Also just listening to radio commentary and saying no matter how good these players perform they Ardley will never pick them for a league unless forced too by injury. I hope that isn't the case or that really is a sorry state of affairs at our club!

Did anyone else hear this?

I too seem to have missed this. Anyone?

Not been listening for long today, but Ardley has said this in the past (well, words to that effect), so is believable

I could believe it if he said that the first team were keeping the others out due to their performances but I'd be very surpirsed if there was any other reason. Still, as I didn't hear it said it does surprise me.

As I am only listening to audio today can anyone watching comment on how we're doing and how the fringe players are performing?

We are playing our usual rubbish..

Looking messy! And not in the Lionel sense!
Passes going short or long etc...
Oxford done their homework eg...googled Notts and High Press and boom.
Loads of mistakes from Notts and Oxford deserve the lead so far.

Difficult to argue that Oxford aren't the better side. More organised, more purpose. We ain't looking so good at the minute.

I think Oxford City look like a good team. They look really fresh, energetic, well organised and are prepared to have a go. Roberts is the best player on the pitch in my opinion and it's not Cal Roberts for us as he's not playing.

In some ways I think we can consider ourselves lucky to only be 1-0 down as they have had much more quality in our final third and are more dangerous than what we have been at the other end.
