REF WATCH

Melksham official Sam Allison,40, takes charge of his first Oxford Utd EFL match tonight at Fratton Park.
Allison, a firefighter based in Trowbridge was a former Chippenham Town midfielder and was promoted to the EFL list in the summer of 2020.

He did take charge of the U’s 1-4 EFL Trophy defeat at Cambridge last August in which he sent off Luke McNally.

This season he has officiated in 23 matches issuing 92 yellow cards and six reds.

Trowbridge, Melksham, Chippenham all Swindon since rovers went back to Bristol

Holland not done very much

Does he ever?

 

[Yellow There!]

Think Kane needs a game or two on the bench. McGuane to come in alongside Brannagan.

 

[bert]

Nowhere near in control. Sitting back to far and two many diving in to tackles

I agree. We've panicked at the back whether playing out under pressure or defending. We need to tighten up and get the basics right and then get up the other end to score at least once.

 

[Yellow There!]

Does he ever?

Let’s cast our minds back to when we last played Portsmouth

He certainly has moments. Enough to warrant a start?

 

[tim lane]

Worst ref I've seen for many seasons.

For Christ's sake stop complaining about the ref.

Probably not unfortunately! Whyte/Bodin back asap please!

 

[Malc]

COME ON YOU YELLOWS

 

[Sarge]

COME ON YOU U'S!

He scored a good goal, yes, but what else did he do?

 

[tonyw]

That was fine for 30 minutes, but then we lost all control of the middle of the park.

Basically allowed them to put balls into the middle at will until they finally played a decent one.

The second goal was just horrible from Kane.


Ref is awful, but he was not at fault for the scoreline. That was all self-inflicted.

Williams and Seddon have barely gotten forward first half. They are going to need to do more, and we're going to need to see more from Holland, if we're going to get back into this.

 

[Concretebob]

COYY, lets turn this around

 

[Sarge]

we're going to win this

 

[bazzer9461]

Poor cross from Seddon

 

[Northstandboy]

Cams passing has been awful

 

[bazzer9461]

OWFC 4-0 up at half time

Error 5-0 uo still playing the first half

 

[Sarge]

decent build up....poor finish
