Noooo no this is all wrong. Where's the bitterness and the usual "big physical team full of parachute payment cunts. They're not all that, Wednesday are better" etc etc

I feel unclean somehow. Take it back
 

On the atmosphere: it was very flat. It was also, I think, our lowest attendance of the season(?). But that’s hardly surprising when we have two home games in 4 days, and this was the less exciting one. Lots of people will have skipped last night to come on Friday instead.
Cold Tuesday night against Oxford to add but it was plunder the atmosphere.

The entire evening felt like an early round cup game.
 
I like this lot. Not of an ounce of bitterness between them.

Sometimes you have to just admit the better team won, and having humility in defeat is rare these days.

Being on the other side of the quality gap last season gives us fans the context of what that feels like. Oxford though aren’t completely out of their depth in this league, so there’s hope, where for us survival was never on the cards.
 
Atmosphere did seem a bit flat, however very controlled win. Credit to them they went till the end but we had an eye on Fridays game for sure which should be a cracker.
 
Not a single post on there I can disagree with.. must be a first
 
Cheers roy, probabally the best set of comments towards us ever, i like the rb is different gravy, which i think so as well
 


Cheers mate

Cheers Roygbiv, as always

“Absolutely shite atmosphere, even from the home fans!”

Couldn’t agree more. Possibly karma for me, because I ripped into Coventry’s atmosphere on Saturday. Turns out Cov was like a Mexican prison riot compared to us last night 🤦🏼‍♂️

I am not one to criticise atmosphere but last night was like a league cup first round game
 



Cheers Panchero!
 
I appreciated their chant of
“We’ve got the ball, we’ve got the ball”
which turned into
“We’ve lost the ball, we’ve lost the ball”
when Souza inevitably took it back off ‘em.

And did I hear a “There’s only one Georgie Baldock” chant from them early on?

Fair comments from them all there Roy & I hope they enjoy their season in the Championship. Sadly, I can’t see ‘em staying up.

Towards the end, when they managed to string four or five consecutive passes, their fans did the funny/sarcastic "Ole!" after each pass.

They actually seemed half decent, as a team, I am sure they won't be in the bottom three come the end of the season.

I have to confess I needed a lie down after reading them too.
I'm not used to people being, well...complementary about us
Feels wrong
 


Fair assessment, I thought they made a good fist of it myself, yes we were miles better, but they didn't give up and had a lot of spirit.
 
Cheers Roy.
Great comments from a very grounded fan base. It was freezing last night but they (and their team) kept going. I hope they stay up.
Oh, and Oxford is a lovely city, only blighted by it's up it's own arse university!!
 
Credit to Oxford who came to play football unlike those shithousing, diving, cheating twats we played before them.
 
Nice comments from them. They play the right way and I hope they stay up. Possibly a couple of loans from our academy in January would help?
 

Just maybe if we do pull it off this season, we should remember how the Oxford fans are dealing with the huge difference in quality after being promoted.
Rather than scapegoating all our players and giving them dog's abuse like many of us did last time..
If we get back up let's keep our dignity and support the team through thick or more likely thin.
