Perhaps for fitness but I would think we would be better off actually have some competitive games to bring players up to championship standard…not league 2 or non league However, we play this level of opposition in every pre-season, we don't usually win this well. Something feels different about this group. PS - Cornick's first touch looks improved with the time spent here. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BCFCGav Posted July 22, 2023 Report Share Posted July 22, 2023 As soon as Leeson started earlier I was concerned about McCrorie and Tanner! Seems the former is playing no part today. Concerning.

Indeed. It was a calf strain last season as well. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davefevs Posted July 22, 2023 Report Share Posted July 22, 2023 1 hour ago, Mr Popodopolous said: Given I haven't seen any of the game, whether he has been tested may make this a moot point. How has Wiles-Richards done or has he been a virtual spectator? 2 good punches from opposition set-pieces, one which was right off of the head of their player with a free header. 1 easy save from SPH on the angle. Flawless distribution. 29 minutes ago, Port Said Red said: How did SPH get on? Did all he could with no service. Pressed our CBs and did okay considering. At h-t I said I thought Bondswell gave Leeson a hard-time. He’s on loan from Newcastle, probably explains it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They beat Swansea last night at the Kassam so have a largely second string side full of dross.

petehinton Posted July 22, 2023 Report Share Posted July 22, 2023 (edited) When are we expecting squad numbers to be confirmed then? No names on the back of shirts normally means a few changes are probably likely. Would mean a bit more ££ spent on kits with names too Edited July 22, 2023 by petehinton Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CodeRed Posted July 22, 2023 Report Share Posted July 22, 2023 Excellent cross from Roberts and even better finish from Conway for 1-0, Oxford go straight down the other end and equalise 1-1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's got 5 caps for Canada under 20's it'll be an interesting battle between him and Araoya. I think we're in a really good position with the Academy. Yeboah just signed a 3 year deal. JKL and Araoya in contention for the first team. Francois putting in good performances for Australia, Meerholz seems held in high regard. Morrison seems to have a fair bit of potential and this list isn't even including Benarous who is currently injured. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
