Listen, I think we as you will all agree are in a better position than we thought we would be in after 10 rounds,it's a case of targeting the games we can win and then let's see where we are after 16/17 rounds, we are not going to win every game, let's just get behind the lads, coyb

Which player that collapsed to ground to waste time? The one with arm injury or one with broken cheekbone


Anyway all in all apart from those two injuries a good night. I hear Oxford is a nice city to visit you could make a weekend of it next year

I did attend and allways will follow the mighty blue m whites but it's a fact many fax fans hate that dump of a ground and won't go there,my dad included.

Anyway I'm a very happy fax fan this morning no matter what you think of our performance and your excuses -again for losing.

Another frustrating and disappointing game, but comparing what both teams did, Fax were comfortably better.

The main reasons for this are because they had 3/4 of the field position, number of reasons for that but the end result is you spend most of the game trying to get away from your own line, this leads to fatigue, which degrades performance, support play and decision making.

It's no shock of course as everyone including owners knows full well we simply don't have enough grunt available and if one thing kills us this season then it will be that.

Fatigue probably also plays a part in a secondary reason, that is persisting in pis.sing away possession through inexcusable mistakes and bad discipline. Not as bad as some games but still just not good enough, some of the basic errors really make you cringe, and sadly you pretty much know when we will cough it up, if not exactly how. Leon was especially guilty of a couple of great attacking positions being pis.sed away.

Another secondary reason is our embarrassing inability to deal with high kicks and kicks into space. Mercifully Fax hadn't done their homework on this and the bombs were limited but its like nobody wants any ball in the air, so all leave it to someone else.

I will add that despite the above, we could easily have won, if we hadn't managed to literally three times lose the ball in the act of scoring - two pretty much under the posts. That's different, you've done the hard work, and on another night you ground the ball and in. Would've been very hard on a workmanlike Fax team but if a couple of those had been 6 pointers then likely we would've pinched the win.
