Smith 6 - early mistake but did not let it affect him later Leadbitter 6 - subbed early Craig 8.5 - just what we need, hardly put a foot wrong Broadbent 9 MOM - running out of things to say about this fella Brown 7 - Steady return Lines 7 - more effective in the second half Sinclair 6.5 - usual 100 % Sercombe 6.5 - strangely subdued Bennett 7 - a bit light weight at times but very skilful Clarke 7.5 - dogged performance Harrison 7.5 - consistent and really troubled defenders in second half
Partington 7 - Did well and was very effective Other subs NOLE
Oxford 5 - Good first half but didn't like it up um Mr Manwaring Ref 4 - another tossed D.C. 9 - spot on Crowd 10 - away support fantastic
Good 3 points, we battered them 2nd half! Always enjoy my trip to Oxford. UTFG

Smith 5 - Not the best day in the office for him after the mistake but was a quiet day for him on the whole as wasn't really tested all that often.
Leadbitter - NOLE Pulled his hamstring early on. Very disappointing as he does provide us with something different. Craig 7.5 - Solid performance and his leadership came in handy in the last ten minutes when we were trying to secure the win. Broadbent 9 MOM - Another really really good performance from Broadbent. He's just getting better and better and it's really pleasing to see. Brown 7.5 - One of his better displays this season and has certainly made a case to DC for him to remain in the team, put some good crosses in too.
Lines 6 - Took the ball forward well but his final ball let us down at times. Did better in the second half and overall won the midfield battle. O. Clarke 7 - Didn't have the best first half but was much improved in the second and got a fantastic assist for our second goal. Sinclair 7 - Again someone who didn't have the best of first half but was better in the second. You can see why DC selects him as he eases the pressure on Harrison and is a thorn in the side of the opposition.
Bennett 8 - Good full debut for Bennett and is exciting to watch. Scored a decent goal which although took a nice deflection, was still well put away and there is still a lot to come from the ex Pompey man. Harrison 8.5 - Yet again another really dominant performance from Harrison who is evidently enjoying his football at the moment. Led the line well and scored a classy goal. Sercombe 7 - A fantastic player who is wasted out wide, he still had a decent game though and linked up well with Partington when he did get the service out wide.
Sub: Partington 8 - I was impressed with Parts today. Steady at the back and has a great cross on him which really must utilise. Caused the opposition fullback a lot of problems which is good to see and is fastly becoming one of my favourite players.
Crowd 9 - Lots of noise made from the traveling gas heads which is pretty standard at a place like Oxford. From the oppositions perspective 6k home fans is a disappointing turnout? Ref 4 - Inconsistent at times and slowed the game down a lot with a lot of stopping and starting. Not the best. Oxford 5 - Was expecting a bit more from Oxford if I'm honest and once their CM's tired (Mowatt and Ledson) Rovers completely dominated. I can't really name one Oxford player that I'd rather have in our team, maybe Ledson or Eastwood but not based on their performances today.
Great 3 points on the road UTG

Smith 6.0 Shocker for 1st goal but otherwise ok
Leadbitter NOLE Craig 7.0 Steady perfomance when it mattered Broadbent 9.0 Hitting a good run of form both commanding in air and calm when onnthe ball Brown 7.0 A steady return tonthe side
Lines 7.0 An improvement on form of late and now getting the odd tackle in Clarke 7.0 Slowly getting back to his better form of last season Sinclair 5.5 A dreadful 1st half but improved as game went on Sercombe 6.5 Needs to be played in the middle to get best out of him
Bennett 7.0 A bit in and out1st half but confidence improvedcafter scoring Harrison 8.0 Difficult time on his own up front but finished strongly with well taken goal
Subs Partington 8.0 Another good performance at both ends Moore & Gaffney NOLE

A good performance especially 2nd half after a shocking start.Hard to remember a club where we have won on our last 5 visits.

Smith - 6. Early mistake but did everything he had to (which wasn’t much) well after that.
Leadbitter - 5. Didn’t look fit from the start. Craig - 7.5. Didn’t have to do too much defending but won every header and was composed on the ball. Broadbent - 9. Quick, strong, dominant and superb with his feet. Brown - 7.5. Typical solid Brown performance with some good crosses thrown in too.
Lines - 8.5. Controlled the midfield. Oxford couldn’t get near him. O. Clarke - 8. Constantly harrying their midfielders, breaking up play and setting us off on the attack. Sinclair - 6. Pressed from the front all game but wasn’t too involved in the play.
Bennett - 7.5 - Things weren’t quite coming off for him before the goal, but after scoring he was excellent. Harrison - 8. Worked his socks off all game and scored a superb winner. Sercombe - 6.5 - Difficult for him out on the right but neat and tidy in possession as always.
Sub: Partington - 7. Sound defensively and got some dangerous balls into the box. Was a threat down the right.
Crowd - 9 Ref - 8 Oxford - 5

Smith 6 Not really troubled. Poor individual error which lead to their goal.
Leadbitter 5 looked a bit out of sorts before injury. Craig 8 strolled through the game never really troubled. Reads the game so well. Broadbent 9 MOTM absolute tank who won everything and can play football as well. Brown 8 a fantastic return for Browner. Always involved and looked sharp.
Lines 7 Played well and got us going forward. O. Clarke 8 One of his best games this season, broke up play with an evident hunger. Sinclair 7 lots of running which I'm sure is valued by his team mates.
Bennett 7 grew into the game, his goal gave him needed confidence. Thrived on a good surface. Harrison 8 ran his socks off harassing defenders got rewarded with a fantastic finish. Sercombe 7 fairly quiet game, did ok for the team.
Sub: Partington 7 did a great job nothing really got by him, showed good willingness to get forward second half.
Crowd 9 loud and right up for it, which showed on the pitch second half. Ref 8 Oxford 5 outplayed second half, seemed to be lacking of ideas.

Smith 6 Not much to do apart from pick the ball out of the net !
Leadbitter NOLE Craig 7 Strong and steady got caught a couple of times. Broadbent 9 MOM didn't put a foot wrong looks class coming out from the back. Brown 7 done all that was asked of him
Lines 7 done all that was asked of him. O. Clarke 7.5 got better the long the game went on, great ball for the second goal Sinclair 6.5 lots of running but not much end result
Bennett 7.5 flashes of class but needs to ensure that once he beats his man he don't have to go back and do it again Harrison 8 run his socks off took the goal well Sercombe 7 looks lost out wide
Sub: Partington 7.5 didn't put a foot wrong
