Can help thinking there is more than a grain of truth in the not being cuo-tied thing. Even if Nelson wasn't starting you would want him in the bench. Certainly could have done with him for the second 45 yesterday. Initially I thought it entirely implausible, scare-mongery whinging on the part of the one-eyed Eales-out brigade; as it pre-supposes 1. that had United the temerity to qualify for the 2nd Round, he would have been “rested” again, to more obvious outcry 2. that potential suitors for Nelson would still be in the Cup (4th Round) by the end of the transfer window, otherwise, what was the point? and 3. that it follows that Eales simply pockets the cash from sales anyway. As if it’s that simple. (If Eales wanted to cash in, he would have named his price to Santori and naffed off, and you won’t convince me otherwise). However; all that said...not having him at least on a bench of seven was most odd and the whole argument IS becoming slightly more convincing to me. Does anyone know if non-playing subs become cup-tied? Sartori knew how important his investment was to slippery, hence he held at one offer, which unfortunately eales declined

Well done Jack Stevens...clean sheet while on loan at oxford City in the fa cup against league opposition....congrats to City,and especially 'our'assets on loan there....Wonder if Clotet and Eales and OUFC first team squad were watching the way to WIN in the FA cup first round?
They all shouldve been watching!

Agree, I suppose he's the final player Darryl can make more money from before he sells up. Can help thinking there is more than a grain of truth in the not being cuo-tied thing. Even if Nelson wasn't starting you would want him in the bench. Certainly could have done with him for the second 45 yesterday. Wouldn't surprise me if Nelson ends up at Sheffield Utd or Leeds.

Quite right.. give Port Vale some credit ..they used the home advantage, animated the crowd and bossed us out of the game.

Pretty clear now that the summer signings were a collective disaster. The players who have carried the side are almost all the remnants of Appletons squad: Nelson, Eastwood, ruffels, ledson, Thomas, hall. This. The one silver lining for me from last night was that I only had an hour's drive home after. Fair play to the 340-odd drove up to Stoke to watch that shite - but the performance was shocking. As if it was a Sunday training friendly the morning after a heavy session the night before. Disgrace. And if Tiendalli wants to pack it in any time soon, that would be lovely. Haven't seen such a ponderous, confused performance from an Oxford full-back since Rufus Brevett.

I don't even think Tiendelli's been as bad as others think, but the fact he's starting over Carroll is just plain wrong. More desire, younger and potential to improve and sell in future, and probably better. Plus he's 'one of our own' which always helps.

'The roof, the roof, the roof is on fire.' Except he never was. Well there was one cracking pass from Rufus from the Rigg back position to the left midfield cant remember who but I turn one touch crossfield pass into the box for Bash to rise and head in a goal absolute blinding bit of football with the initial pass from Rufus...........but alas that was it for his time with us.

To be fair, Carroll's last performance was persistently awful at full back. Just one of those things with a young player, but at left back, no thanks. He needs to be put into a position to succeed.

No nor do I he was good defensively against Fleetwood until he tired and perhaps should have come off.
He certainly wasn't one of the worst on the field either, but obviously lacks match fitness.
Mous wasn't up to much Friday and Payne, Mowatt and Ledson were pretty inconspicuous.
Some look for a scapegoat after each loss and Tiendalli happens to fit that bill at the moment.
Lets judge him when he's fully match fit.
Carroll has a future but I don't think its at fullback personally .

That's the FA Cup though...league status and current form often go out of the window and its 11 v 11 with home team advantage...... that's when the Managers earn their corn..

If Rikki is Still not fit Next Saturday and Tiendalli is still not 100% then start Ruffs at left back he has played there in the past a lot, it might and would probably work.

But that's the point I'm making, I'd rather it be Carroll making mistakes whilst learning and improving Unfortunately, Carroll's mistakes were part of the causes for 2 goals the last time he played - at times he looked out his depth. No disrespect to the lad, but I don't want to shred his confidence by playing him in a position he's not familiar with to get him experience in a team not playing well.

He's not a full back. Carroll.
