How do you know that? Surely it's too early for such a pronouncement. Did KR say

KR said he was cramping up at half time. They didn't want to push him

Ignore the trolls. He was just rested at half time, was always going off for wildschut but came off a little earlier due to cramping….

 

[Fred]

Wildschut looks okay not great

Hopefully match fitness

Hope that's not true as Murphy was unplayable today. Everything he did was dangerous.

Not a hair out of place as well

Outstanding at times.
If he is fit in the second half of the season he will scare L1 defenders

 

[West Oxon U’s]

Robinson said Murphy was subbed at the break with a bit of cramp. Needs to be carefully managed as he is effectively playing ‘pre-season’ games
due to his lay-off.

He was electric for Oxford in that first half.

REF WATCH

Lancashire official Ben Toner is the man in the middle for tonight’s clash with the Valiants.
Toner was appointed to the National List in the summer of 2015 and his last U’s game was the 1-2 home loss to Sunderland
last April. His last Charlton fixture was their 2-1 loss at Bolton in February.

Toner has issued 70 yellow cards in 23 games this season and is yet to dismiss a player.

Very good referee though night.

Thought he was good for 30mins, but then started making errors which was probably due to him tiring.

Should have given a foul on CB, Payne (already on a yellow) should have had a second!

Also a cynical foul on Murphy(?) in the first half went uncarded.

I still reckon it was a clear pen when Murphy was shoved off the ball in the first half.

After abandoning your plans to travel down from Sheffield which I get - surely you could have forked out a tenner to watch it on I-follow

Best first half display I've seen this season, second half Charlton came back into it after their subs made more of an impact that their predecessors. Still overall a very good game with both teams trying to play the right way. Looking forward to Sunday now.

 

[Yellow River]

Only one team in it first half, totally dominated.
Murphy was excellent, pace and width, it’s what we’ve been crying out for all season.

Charlton’s three subs at half time changed things for them, and I felt they could easily sneak a goal to get back into the game. Which they did.

Long and Bate both had good games, as did Anderson in the first half.
Yanic looks a fair bit off match fitness. Hopefully there’s a lot more to come from him.

Great to see O’Donkor get on the score sheet, his performances deserves more than just the odd 10 or 15 minute cameos.

An encouraging win, and on that performance I’d be disappointed not to take all 3points on NYD against Exeter.

In January I’d like to see us target a quality central defensive midfielder with a physical presence, to give our back line more protection., as well as a bit of extra bite in midfield.

Wildschut looks a million miles off the pace right now, but understandable after such a long lay off. Murphy, Mcguane and Bate are different class for div 3

Mcguane ain’t got a clue when he goes forward 0 goals 0 assists in 60 appearances embarrassing

Buzzing at half time. Second half a bit more nervous till our 3rd goal. Overall great result!!
