Squad

Owen Dale: that is not what I was promised

“Things were said to me before I signed. I am not going to repeat them, but I remember all of them.” Oxford United have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Market

Squad

Player ratings

Successful dribbles: 13. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

In brief
