With Taylor not having much pace Hall and Maguire are going to have to get much closer and further forward than they have been, else its going to be a long afternoon.
0-0 with Hemmings on for Taylor after 60, and Roberts on for McDonald after 70.

Can't see us getting anything from this game. We have zero goal threat and no plan B other than to pass it to Maguire and hope he does something with it. Hope to be proved wrong. Having just seen the team my earlier post seems more relevant. I'd be happy to score a goal today.

Why oh why. This was a real opportunity for Skarz to play allowing Johnston to move up to his natural place. Taylor offers nothing as a lone striker. What is Appleton thinkin?

#oufc at Gillingham: Eastwood, Edwards, Dunkley, Nelson, Johnson, MacDonald, Lundstram, Ledson, Hall, Maguire, Taylor. Live 95.2FM/digital Not gonna make much difference imo, Taylor will be as isolated as hemmings has been. Should be both together. Unless Maguire is going to run onto Taylor's headers.

I've not seen maguire run onto anything lately, unless the ball is at his feet

Thought Taylor did well second half Saturday, had an authority and was composed on the ball, Good ball control and hold up play generally good also.

Rad Ox have been semi critical of the lack of goals - not at Hemmings but in general not good enough to score goals. One player in the box means you can't just fling the ball in and hope. I suppose player Taylor gives a threat in the air, but feels harsh on Hemmings. We desperately need some players in.

But can you be confident that he will score? One up front (whoever that 'one' is) is bloody difficult and we don't have a player who can do it IMO.

A really good turnout from the Oxford fans here at the priestfield stadium it's pretty packed in the section of stand open. And a random fox on the pitch.

Excellent weather at the stadium and what looks like a decent pitch. No clouds and clear blue sky.

Upper scaffolding is open. Good turn out for us today Last time I went there, ONLY the top part of the scaffolding stand was open, leaving a sea of empty seats between us and the pitch.

We are just looking a bit weak in poaching the ball into the net. More actual chances than the last two matches but no quality or complete commitment to get to the ball first in the area so far.
