Will be in the Kemble Brewery, Fairview St. GL52 2JF from around 5.30pm onwards. Brilliant, friendly real ale pub, just 3-5min walk from Whaddon Rd ground. Can be a little difficult to find...hence postcode!

Lost my voice near end, but great result should have had at least one more, Warren Carter looked much better and is improving With every game, some good stops, everything was going so well until we got return train home, the connection at Worcester shrubb hill had already departed before we got in, so the train service got us a taxi all the way from Worcester to Oxford, we filled the taxi up about half hour late in oxford but worth it!

Good to get a result but we looked lightweight in midfield and created few chances. What's happened to Pondy?

Appalling bit of gamesmanship / diving / cheating by your substitute.

Appalling bit of gamesmanship / diving / cheating by your substitute. Nearly as shocking as the support all round...surprised to not see a single Gloucester fan in the Kemble Brewery - 4 min walk from ground...they didn't know there was even a game save for the three of us in there! Certainly not conclusive at all, regarding video clip..looks like he lost his footing with the Gloucester player in a heap infront of him! Hardly defined the game did it??? Sour grapes maybe?

People who put "sour grapes" on internet football forums should have their fingers removed with pliers.
And their nose.
Then they won't be able to type it again.
Tom Daley has competition from your man. That is just cheating. Your man and the referee ought to be ashamed at their part in that.

I wasn't there but it looks like minimal contact at best....though the current 'official' way of telling if a player dives is if his hands/arms go above the shoulders. His never did therefore the video is inconclusive.

Great ref, wish he could do all our games! Please complain to F A even send the video!

Thought the ref was spot on a two footed slidng lunge no contact with ball minimal contact player, have seen straight reds given for that on many occasions!

He does appear to go down after the contact, whether its a dive or a slip i'm not so sure, but the trip by Coupe on Shariff when in on goal was meriting of a straight red on it's own anyway in my opinion as Nab was in if the guy doesn't trip him and moments before he was also pulled down inside the box(unsure if it was Coupe that time) and nothing was given, they couldn't cope with his pace.

There is no contact whatsoever. The player has dived, pure and simple.
Cheat.

To be honest, i don't think you can tell from that video, and i wasn't there so can't judge. But surely it doesn't matter now anyway? In any case it is up to the ref. His decision. Not ours.

Pathetic sour grapes bleating...just like the 'we hate Oxford' bleating from the small group of Gloucester fans.
As said...hardly turning point of a ninety minute game in any case!
In respect to 'small group', must say our support was shockingly low for such a fixture...thought the usual suspects (bar Padz) would have made the effort!

We did sing "going home in a taxi" and you did ;D As for the game we should have taken our chances time to move on!
