I really wish we could bin him but because we're run by complete arseholes, the player has all the power over us. From back to back 5th placed finishes to being held ransom by Harry Winks in under five years. Incredible. You'll really never see another decline like it.

His hands are tied but he needs to start kicking and screaming to get them to untie them. If not he's just going to be the next victim.

Huddersfield deserved it - lucky to even take it to penalties. Every single thing at this club stinks. We're ****ed.

Shocking from us. Huddersfield deserve it.

The odds really are stacked against him. Squad full of poor players, poor attitudes yet players who have all the power and all the security because of Aiyawatt and Rudkin. Not impressed with him so far but really do think this is a bit of a poisoned chalice. He's got to be strong and demand action from those above.

Red flags all over the place. Awful.

Lucky we aren't already out of this. That's arguably a fourth penalty they should've had - absolute minimum it should be two.

Another massive chance for Daka squandered. Completely forgot he was on the pitch.

Whatever it is it's brutal. This sort of thing shouldn't be happening, let alone two games into a season. Extremely toxic at this club. Proper ticking time bomb.

Two games for us and two non-celebrations from our players how on earth did we get here?

Team of ****ing dunces.

Good finish - honestly think I'd have him in midfield at this point.

I'd normally be a bit more patient early into a season but that's because early into a season you usually have new signings who are bedding in. We already know this lot and they still look complete tripe.

Oh for **** sake it isn't either of those two going off.

Let that be the last time we ever play that midfield pairing. Skipp/Soumare is a midfield is a bottom half Championship midfield - no joke.

He's been very poor but refuse to write him off yet - don't think 45 minutes overshadows looking decent for Oxford.

Christ this season couldn't have started much worse for Nelson.

How does Nelson manage to get away with it

Do we 'ever' start well

Utterly distasteful comparison. No way were Fred and Rose West that bad.

Hate the midfield. Actually taints an otherwise bearable side for me.

Still pretty sure he'll go.

Great post. This is often forgotten. This is a knock on of the clubs uniquely bad communication. I seriously question those who aren't questioning things.

I think he's complete rubbish but that is literally his one route to any sort of respectability for me, if this is true.

It's the cycle of decline we're stuck in. Rudkin performs terribly with no risk to his job, we get worse, he occasionally does something 'OK' and the bar for what is seen is 'OK' has come so far down that people don't even realise it. I'd be interested in hearing a situation anything like the one we have with Rudkin. There is literally no level of performance he can put in that would get him out.
