Re Josh Key - Yes, he missed some absolute sitters today, but the lad played in every position going. He ran his socks off, and can never be accused of not giving his all. I truly hope he stays with us.
agreed, he made a couple of excellent runs as well - i think he's the best in the side for passing players with the ball at his feet. i thought the chance in the second half he did everything right but oxford defended admirably. he's not renowned as a finisher but if he could add that to his game he'd be a superb player

Fantastic result today. Whilst I didn't get a chance to listen or watch so no idea on performance but a great result for the side and Caldwell.

Let's hope we follow this up with another win against Forest Green in a couple of weeks.

Nombe being in the side at the moment is a huge difference maker in our frontline play
I think he has listened to your wise words and come to the conclusion he was out of his depth but has now seen the light :)

Terrible design of the car parks. Took us an age to get out of the overflow.

Not having it I don’t think he beat a single player today and he should of buried those chances. It looked like he had two left feet all game and he was abysmal. By far one of the worst performances I’ve ever seen from him, Perhaps 🤔 I’m just being critical because I know how good he is.

He isn't the first and won't be the last 😂

At least we know he reads exeweb for tips and hints

always amazes me how differently people see a game - that's the beauty of it i suppose! i didn't think it was his best game by any means (he lost the ball in dangerous positions a few times) but certainly not his worst. I think the fact he was in position to have 3 great chances and fashion that chance for himself at the end where he hit the post suggests he had an influential game

Maybe but it’s not as if he doesn’t know what he’s doing up top. He was a fully fledged Winger as a kid.

More likely to be Dawlish Warren?!

Assume they will be off on a winter training break in Dubai in the next few days the boys.
Or Qatar ?

Indeed. Quite of few empty stadia available for the odd training session.
