Broadhead will kick start out season. 11:07 - Jan 23 with 3550 views | Marshalls_Mullet | If we can get him into the starting line up on a consistent basis, I'm confident that his dynamic place and quality of finishing will turn our form around. |  |

Broadhead will kick start out season. on 11:20 - Jan 23 with 3126 views | greyhound | Didn't see enough of him Saturday but that being said I saw little of how we really played and positioned ourselves due to the fog. For instance Harry Clarke came on but no idea what he did. As much as we must not use the fog as an excuse that game should have been called in the first half it was obvious it was only going to get worse |  | |  |

I was watching and I didnt even realised he had made his debut. |  |

Broadhead will kick start out season. on 11:34 - Jan 23 with 3001 views | ParisBlue | Has to start on Tuesday, along with Clarke and Edmundson (if fit). I wonder if we see Luongo or Humphreys ahead of Evans, who hasn't got back to his pre-injury standard. I think the midfield 2 is a part of the problem. The cup game on Saturday and no midweek game next week gives us a chance to make a few changes. |  |

Evans really struggles when teams come at us a bit like the last two games. He's much better when given time and space to pick passes. |  | |  |

It was comedy wasn't it? I heard the commentator saying peoples names, but you couldn't see a bloody thing and as you say, I didn't see Clarke at all during the game, lol. The cameraman was obviously in the same boat, just flashing it around hoping the ball was somewhere near where he was pointing, but often it wasn't of course. How that game was allowed to continue is beyond shameful, it really should be replayed and fans refunded. |  |

Evans was a class above in that game, played loads of top quality balls, the problem was the people receiving them did nothing with the possession they'd been gifted, which was often Harness and Burns, who were both awful. [Post edited 23 Jan 2023 12:21]

Harry Clarke was the only player us fans that were there could see |  |

On occasion, when I've not gone away I have had to turn Twitter notifications off so that they don't ruin the live match stream which is a minute or so behind. On Saturday, in the actual stadium, I was relying on them to tell me what had actually happened in front of me. Quite bizarre! |  | |  |

It strikes me that teams have wised up to this, and Evans won't from now on be given the time and space that he had at the start of the season, |  | |  |

It’s just mad, what was the ref thinking and what was McK thinking not taking them off the pitch, staying was a lottery and it didn’t go out way, even if the result had stood, a point would have been better than a possible 0. |  |

I would have understood it more of we were overall in control. But it didn't really feel like it to me. Really scrappy game. We did have opportunities but something about didn't fill you with confidence that the game was going to go our way. |  |

Imagine the uproar if McKenna said 'we are happy with a point, thanks'. Mind blowing this is even being attempted to be used against him! The sort of thing you'd expect Lambert to have done back when we went through our stage as a club of hating playing games of football. [Post edited 23 Jan 2023 15:22]

Draws get you nowhere fast in this league - if choice was 1 point or play on I'd have played on. |  |

Maybe this if with the benefit of hindsight, but we weren't playing particularly well and from half-time we should have been in the refs ear to abandon it and come back another day. We're a better team than Oxford but the conditions acted as a leveller. Oxford took their chance and played the conditions more sensibly. |  |

I thought in the second half there only looked like there was going to be one winner - they weren't getting in our territory much and we looked much more dangerous and creating better chances......but then they score! |  |

You’re right about the draws, but in those conditions it was anybody’s game and I’d have taken a point and been ok with it. However, the decision should have been put out of both managers hands and the game called off, was utterly mad to attempt to play in that fog. [Post edited 23 Jan 2023 22:33]

Reminds me of many moons ago being a young captain of an amateur hockey team. We were playing a game on a shale pitch and it bucketed down, really really crap conditions. 5 mins into the second half the ref called the Captains in to ask did we want to abandon the match... We were 4-1 up at the time and pushing to get promotion out of that league. Checked with the team and we decided to play on despite the conditions....... We lost the game 4-5.... You are dammed no matter what the decision is in such conditions. |  | |  |
Broadhead will kick start out season. on 07:24 - Jan 24 with 1235 views | GavTWTD | We seem to be really reliant on Burns so I'm hoping that the asymmetric formation we employ can be switched or developed with the addition of Broadhead and Clarke. Perhaps Broadhead can be the Burns on the left or we go more symmetric. If teams have sussed us then we need to be cuter with the talent we have. |  |

I don’t know how quickly KMcK can get the players delivering but your are right imo. Clarke offers more going forwards to make that right side more dynamic when teams look to block that side; Broadhead offer a more predatory attacking player either coming off the left or in around the box when interchanging with Chaplin/Harness. |  |
