Yep. It was a bit of a bore. It looked like two bottom half scrappers attempting to play League One football (and not doing it very well).

My word we aren’t very good (the last five minutes aside). MK are frankly dreadful too. What has happened to both sides since last season? Referee lost the plot. Our 5-3-2 just isn’t working. Another loss. Pressure is massively on KR right now.

I actually expected us to be a bit more hopeless than we were. So that’s a plus! At times we looked better than we have in previous games. We don’t have the players to challenge. They’re either all injured or as a consequence of failing to properly recruit. We’re at least four players short...

I am staggered he's managed to find a new club to be honest. Sam Winnall used to be a very, very good striker. Injuries I gather have ravaged him and he subsequently hasn't been at the level required for some years now. I would be very concerned as a Burton supporter (if you weren't already)...

We are still plagued by injuries and simply didn't strengthen sufficiently in the window to cause sides too many problems. If we win, it'll be scrappy.

No, we probably won’t be. I don’t think any OUFC supporter is of that opinion either by virtue we are a weakened side from last season. Our transfer business was far from acceptable. Will we go down? Probably not. Will we secure promotion? I doubt it. I fully anticipate a season of mid-table...

We made Burton look competent which is quite a feat. Once we get some of our injured players back we should be fine. Marcus Browne looked a cut above when he played the final 30. But he’s as injury prone as they come and sadly these injuries will shorten his career eventually.

Boy oh boy, do Burton have a chance this afternoon. Mousinho starts. I love Mous, but he just can't play regular League One football and neither should he. Any time he plays 60 minutes he's basically incapable of playing for day/weeks after. He played 90 minutes on Tuesday night... Our left...

If you concede five this time, forget JFH’s role as Manager, I’d go so far as to say that Burton should be expelled from professional football indefinitely.

Apparently we are interested/about to sign Djavan Anderson from Lazio. Yep! Absolutely no idea.

I might be going against the majority here, however I genuinely don't get too concerned by refereeing performances all that much. Decisions go against my team, however I don't recall too many (if any decisions) which have cost us points. The end of the season I don't think many (if at all) would...

We face Cheltenham away. With 8 first teamers out, no wingers available (Jodi Jones aside who was publicly outed on the radio last night for not trying hard enough in training…) we have no way of playing and a very limited offensive threat right now. Our two holding midfielders are also out and...

Average is a compliment. Thanks very much!

Despite what the stats say, we largely never looked like winning despite something like 26 shots. Granted, Obika wouldn’t have even scored against us if you played us in every game for the rest of the season so your goal threat first half was largely non-existent! From our point of view we have...

We play Morecambe at home. On paper it should be three points however they should view this as a winnable fixture. Every winger we have is injured barring young Tyler Goodrham who before this season had played roughly 15 games at Conference South level and others being shoehorned out wide who...

He said in the press this week it's a good thing Matty Taylor hasn't scored this season as a Matty Taylor that has something to prove is more threatening.

For some perspective it was a typical performance from us. We conceded two shots culminating in two goals. The first was weak defending. Our full back Sam Long didn't get anywhere near to closing the cross down and our marking was worrying. Neither centre half were within five yards which is...

I don’t blame him if he doesn’t want to comment. We aren’t very impressive right now!

We are toothless.

Being a Football Manager is hard. It's a thankless task and I for one wouldn't want the impact of football management to impose on my family life. Being a business owner is impactful enough! This isn't intended as a knock; KR isn't a brilliant manager. He's not bad though. For balance he's done...
