Boss feels for fans

Darren Patterson said he felt sorry for Oxford United's supporters, who had again turned out in good numbers on a Bank Holiday, but weren't rewarded with a victory as the U's were held to a goalless draw by Woking.
"This happens too many times here," claimed the U's boss. "At the end of the day, players have got to take responsibility when they go out there.
"We had an extra day's rest - Woking played Saturday. And a lot of times they were sharper than us, which is just not acceptable, I'm not having it.
"We are going to have to take a long hard look at it.
"We'll have to get a bit of honesty, and get people's views, but we'll have to take a long look at ourselves because that isn't good enough.
"For me, we were missing a few men today. Men to boss things about."
