The result today is what the result is- not much to dissect on some ways.
Thought we'd almost lost the crowd around 50-60 minutes but then everyone started to realise the match was now about the players, the club and the future and started to sing again- created the best league atmosphere so far this season.
It is so difficult to single out players in that kind of game but we sat so deep and invited Oxford to come at us. Even as half time though I don't think they had more than two chances on goal and scored them both. Was hoping for a Rochdale revival.
What I will say, as an observation not a criticism, is some players seemed to take the warm ups today in a very light hearted way. That simply wouldn't have happened with a manager present to make sure the discipline was present.
Anyway, we lost 6-0. I can''t think I have seen us lose too many times like that at home (Barnet does spring to mind).
What do I see Appleton doing?
Would not be surprised IF we saw changes this Friday at the seaside
