Oxford V Mansfield Tuesday Night

[Lyndhurst Road End]

Oxford fans pretty unhappy with Mansfield for a lot of time wasting, while Mansfield fans although agreeing that they were time wasting, some found it embarrassing. The keeper in particular. They were using the 'dark art's' to wind down time. (Also against a team like us who play football and with pace).

Seen that before somewhere

Be warned for Saturday.

I heard they are a physical side so l am expecting us to be "roughed" up.

However, weren't Oxford winning for a large chunk of the second half? Right up until injury time? So wouldn't they of been wasting their own time?

Oxford fans just like moaning. We were time-wasting at the end to hold on to a valuable point at one of the best sides in the league, but any team would. It' also a bit rich coming from Oxford, who dive, foul and surround the ref at any opportunity.

It's interesting to see that our reputation for physicality hasn't gone. Last season it was certainly true, but the new manager has a new squad, full of dainty, little fellows.
