Leeds just battered Cardiff 7-0 notching almost half of what we’ve scored at home all season in one game.

Well aware that we put 5 past Cardiff too, 10 in 13 at home away from that, Oxford needs to be a statement win because we’re losing ground here rapidly.

Don’t worry as todays proved we are going to waste all the lower teams.

Good win but we will improve and if promotion is the aim runner up will do.

You do know it's February?? When exactly is the improvement coming?

Tbf, even we scored five against Cardiff!

Edit: Shows what a good result for us it was against Leeds (both games!)

we've lost 2 points to them.

A thing to remember is that Leeds have a better team than us. It does make a difference.

And Leeds are so much better than us since they got one point from us and no goals in two games.

We’ve also drawn 0-0 with Portsmouth, Leeds, Sunderland, Middlesbrough, Stoke, Derby, West Brom, QPR, Preston and Oxford. That’s actually insane 2/3 of the way into the season.

Another thing to remember is Leeds are set up to score goals.

We are set up not to lose.

I would agree with that. And perhaps with the squad we have, although difficult to watch at times, being 5 points off them at this point in the season is about right. I think there are times when we have to be braver, but where we are isn't by any means a disaster. In fact it might not be on here if we put 3 past Oxford. Just like it was all positive after putting 5 past plymouth. But we need to string a few wins together, even if the odd defeat is in there. We're guaranteed the playoffs more or less, it's getting to the "nothing to lose" point soon.

After Hull scored today
We are now the lowest home team scorers in the whole of the league
Another great record for Scotty to hang his hat on

Maybe not a disaster yet but with our loans to repay it could be if we miss out on promotion due to playing not to lose.

Ah, we're not talking about those kind of records. You need to be keeping quiet.

I like Parker but let's be honest, for a team with our budget that's completely unacceptable.
