Oh Heck C-Beck

Fane was playing well today. Didn't look like two bookings on ifollow, thought he was unlucky.

And is not even a particularly dirty game

Defensively look shaky still but the new players look much better on the ball. We actually look like we are trying to play with a bit of purpose which is a bit of an improvement

It's not just down to the keeper but he's so routed to his line and seems reluctant to claim things even in the 6 yard box it invites so much pressure onto an already fragile team I hope one of the other 2 keepers is a bit more dominant

Can't see this being turned around with only 3 subs.

we look seriously off the pace and devoid of any attacking plan

This keeper claims zero corners and crosses. He looks lightweight. Definitely puts more pressure on our defenders. A good shot stopper nonetheless

Haha whipped is a bit generous

First half 8 out of 10 for me, second half had to refresh about 40 times. It kept freezing. Not a bad first attempt tho. I'd say sign up to the service. I'd hope the more popular it is the more money they have to improve it. Im thinking of watching the game slightly delayed next time to see if that helps with the buffering

Thought we were stupid to keep knocking it long in the second half the Oxford center backs were dominating. They also defended very well in the box whenever we whipped in a cross. Would have liked us to have changed tactics and try to be a bit more patient. Their number 10 looked very good and helped set up both goals. Was a pretty dull game from both teams in all honesty though.

My stream has been shocking second half after being perfect in the first half how is everyone else finding it?

Davies really should have put us 1 up just before that too

I'm playing he audio commentary in a different tab and it's in sync. Actually the commentary is just behind which is good

I'm using internet explorer so don't know if the browser affects it? Im also in Japan so lucky to have quite fast internet although it's a fair distance from the uk

My stream and audio are working really well at the moment hope it continues

How's everyones stream? Mine looks good but keeps cutting out.

Cheers guys found it:) Hope the stream holds up ok.

Thanks I'll keep trying...it keeps taking me to the subscription page even though I've already subscribed. I'll try a different browser or a refresh.

Sorry for the stupid question, I've just signed up to iFollow. Where do I actually go to watch the live matches? I know the games not started yet but i thought there might be an obvious web page to watch it from.

Anyone know if it is live on ifollow for overseas subscribers?

Has the club confiormed anywhere that they will definitely be showing all of the matches? It says it is upto the clubs discretion, and I don't fully trust them these days, I don't want to hand over 110 quid for just a few matches.

Fantastic news for us Latics abroad I hope all the of our games will be available.

Since moving to Japan I've got really into groundhopping as I didn't have a team to support. After many years of pain at Latics it was quite refreshing to go to matches where I didn't care about the result and it reignited my interest in watching football. Really wish I'd got into it sooner now when I was back in the UK. Fortebaby - would love to hear more about what it's like at West Didsbury and Chorlton. I spent 3 years living in chorlton around 2010 and my flat mate and his friends all played for the club before and during the time they went from amateur to semi pro. I just can't imagine a crowd of 500 down there, I went with him to take in a game once and there attendance was about 15. Do they actually have a small fan base or was it just because it was a derby match with Maine Road? Anyway I have some photos from my hops around Japan at https://www.instagram.com/japanfootball/ if anyone's interested. And i recommend following or joining The Chicken Balti Chronicles on Facebook if you like seeing photos from groundhoppers around the world.

You couldn't make this up. Only at Latics could this become such a drama. NNN it's the Internet just ignore the abuse and idiots and share the information with the fans otherwise what's the point in what you are all doing? If you close yourself off you are no longer doing it for the fans at all. And people will rightfully become suspicious of your dealings with Corney.

And people say we are too big to be admiring how rochdale are being run, yet their improvement in recent seasons seems similar to our golden period. A long term manager and polishing rough diamonds. Add to that an emphasis on youth (something we used to be good at) and there is a platform to build a successful club on. We are big enough to be doing the same. That's why I have a complete lack of faith in our current ownership, they are slowly suffocating this club to death.
