    Oxford v Portsmouth

    Bit of a humdinger !
    Portsmouth leading late on before two long distance late strikes by Oxford stole the points ?

    I said “stole the points” but Oxford had 76% possession and 28 shots on goal compared to three shots by Portsmouth ? So a very one sided game with Portsmouth seemingly under immense pressure resulting in them collecting 7 yellows and 1 red card, that must be a fine coming up ??
    By the way Robertson only came on after 60 minutes, is he injured again or just pacing himself to get through games ?

    Ps our 7 point cushion to MK Dons is looking very formidable now

    Football Association to launch a investigation into the game.
    A total of 11 players booked, plus Portsmouth player Joe Morrell sent off, by referee Samuel Barrott.
    The second half delayed, due to a " medical incident " in the tunnel area, later claimed a member
    of Oxford United backroom staff, had to receive hospital treatment, after falling & banging his head.

    Portsmouth can expect to be fined £2,500 in recognition of having 7 players booked in their 3-2
    defeat, with 4 yellow cards for Oxford united.

    Wonder what happened in the tunnel, with someone requiring hospital treatment,
    don't think they tripped over sponge bucket.

    Shouldn't the 7 players of Portsmouth, who were booked, pay the £2,500 fine between them.

    Portsmouth appeal against Joe Morrell red card in the game, has been lost,
    so the player will serve a 3 match ban.

    Thames Valley police have launched a investigation into the ' Incident in the Tunnel '.
    After a Oxford United volunteer kit man, fell hurting his head, which required hospital treatment.

    I thought 3 became 4 if you appealed and lost or is that discretionary and only to be used against teams with a R O T H E R H A and M in their name
