In our current predicament I don't want our manager coming out after games and talking to the media the way he's currently doing. He's calm and measured and there is a place for that in the game, however, not here not now. I want to see someone who is bursting with passion, someone who is busting a gut, someone who you just know is going to get the players fired up, motivated and running through brick walls for him. He doesn't project being able to do that for me.

The tactics needs reviewing for me - we don't have enough efforts on goal and the coaching staff need to quickly work out how this is corrected.

Dead right on both counts. I cut watching JB's post match video when he said he would have taken the draw before the game! Not only bottom of the league we are also bottom of the recent form league in spite of some slight improvement in the last few games. He is definitely not inspiring the required level of performance, and if he is dictating tactics he is also failing in that department too. We played today as though Kayode was playing up front, with constant forward high balls which achieved nothing. I don't blame the goalie for not rolling the ball out as our central midfielders are just not capable of any meaningful penetration, but it makes you wonder just what style of play we have practised all week. We were lucky today to come away with a point as Oxford made far more real chances to score than us, which our MOM award shows.
