Wilder: "We don't like getting beat and obviously it's not a very good run at the moment. Again we're hurting because we've missed chances"

FT: #oufc 1 #ftfc 2 A stirring finish from United but no way through. Fleetwood take the points.

9:33pm
GOAL! #oufc 1 (Davis 89) #ftfc 2 Game on? Davis thumps one on the corner from 25 yards
— @OxfordMailOUFC 12 February 2013
9:24pm
#oufc 0 #ftfc 2 Parker slips in Rigg, whose shot is saved by Davies. Raynes heads the rebound over.

9:19pm
#oufc 0 #ftfc 2 Neat move rips United's defence apart, but Fontaine lets them off by shooting wide. 15 mins left.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 12 February 2013
9:09pm
#oufc 0 #ftfc 2 Constable hits the post from 20 yards, Rigg skies the rebound.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 12 February 2013
9:00pm
GOAL! #oufc 0 #ftfc 2 (Brown 55) Deep cross is headed back across goal and Brown reacts quickest to bundle in a second goal.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 12 February 2013
8:56pm
#oufc 0 #ftfc 1 Atkinson booked for holding back Smalley. Joins Goodall and McGuire on the naughty list.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 12 February 2013
8:54pm
#oufc 0 #ftfc 1 Decent start to the half from United. Potter has a go from 20 yds, straight at Davies.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 12 February 2013
8:50pm
#oufc 0 #ftfc 1 We're under way again. Crowther comes off for Charnock at the break.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 12 February 2013
8:34pm
HT: #oufc 0 #ftfc 1 Boos from the home fans as United trail to Crowther's effort. Work to do.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 12 February 2013
8:26pm
#oufc 0 #ftfc 1 Montrose and McGuire both booked after a tangle. The Fleetwood player did shove Montrose but the ref deemed them both guilty
— @OxfordMailOUFC 12 February 2013
8:19pm
#oufc 0 #ftfc 1 United's front two combine really well, but Smalley's sweetly struck shot goes just wide.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 12 February 2013
8:19pm
#oufc 0 #ftfc 1 Great chance as Rigg frees Potter, but his lack of confidence is visible as he opts to pass instead of shoot. Cue howls.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 12 February 2013
8:14pm
GOAL! #oufc 0 #ftfc 1 (Crowther 28) United's defence caught out by a simple move across the box, finished by Ryan Crowther.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 12 February 2013
8:12pm
#oufc 0 #ftfc 0 First good chance for either side as Montrose shoots left footed and brings a very good save from Davies.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 12 February 2013
8:05pm
#oufc 0 #ftfc 0 Smalley scores from a yard at a corner, but the ref spotted a foul on the keeper.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 12 February 2013
8:04pm
#oufc 0 #ftfc 0 Constable bursts forward and produces United's first effort, burying a shot into the side netting.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 12 February 2013
8:03pm
#oufc 0 #ftfc 0 United haven't used the ball well so far, little cohesion. Raynes slices a cross straight at McCormick. Lucky.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 12 February 2013
7:58pm
#oufc 0 #ftfc 0 Crowther cuts in off the left and blazes well over. That's as good as it's got so far.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 12 February 2013
7:53pm
#oufc 0 #ftfc 0 Not much to report in the opening five mins. Long balls from both sides not coming to anything.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 12 February 2013
7:46pm
#oufc 0 #ftfc 0 Off we go.

7:44pm
@OxfordMailOUFC lets hope for at least a 1-0 win!
— @JamesAPittaway 12 February 2013
7:33pm
@OxfordMailOUFC the only 2 teams that have been consistent this season is the current top 2, a win tonight and play -offs are back on for me
— @KieranT_ 12 February 2013
7:32pm
There were nearly 2,000 away fans at #oufc on Saturday. Not quite so many in tonight. http://t.co/lUdipccO
— @OxfordMailOUFC 12 February 2013
7:31pm
@OxfordMailOUFC I'll take any form of win tonight, don't care how it comes!!! 2-1 Oxford, Beano & Riggy COYY
— @darrenviney 12 February 2013
7:29pm
@OxfordMailOUFC had a decent start to the season, we was seeing glimpses of his chesterfield form!
— @AshleyHall07 12 February 2013
7:29pm
@OxfordMailOUFC i think it will be very close but im going 1-0 to the yellows with beano to score! #YellowAndBlueArmy #oufc
— @WillH13 12 February 2013
7:26pm
@OxfordMailOUFC if we score it will be beano,to win it will have to be 1-0
— @yellowscooby 12 February 2013
7:26pm
Could be a big night for Smalley - it's his first start since October 6, when he injured himself against Gillingham. #oufc
— @OxfordMailOUFC 12 February 2013
7:24pm
Perhaps slightly surprisingly, #oufc have also scored more goals than Fleetwood in League Two this season (41 compared to 40).
— @OxfordMailOUFC 12 February 2013
7:24pm
Where can we find the positives for #oufc? Well, win tonight and they could be back in the top half by bedtime.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 12 February 2013
7:20pm
Fleetwood change their front two from Saturday's 1-0 win at Torquay. Ball & Fontaine in for Parkin (injured) & Matt (benched). #oufc
— @OxfordMailOUFC 12 February 2013
7:19pm
@OxfordMailOUFC 2-1 Oxford and I'm that daft I took the 8/1 #mugpunting
— @steffensmark 12 February 2013
7:19pm
@OxfordMailOUFC I can't see us scoring... I hate to be pessimistic but i can't see us picking up a point tonight...

The evacuation alarm is sounding at #oufc. I'm assuming we're ignoring that, right?
— @OxfordMailOUFC 12 February 2013
7:15pm
#oufc have scored once in their last 4 games and tonight will be tough - only Gillingham have a better defensive record in L2 than Fleetwood
— @OxfordMailOUFC 12 February 2013
7:15pm
@OxfordMailOUFC 1-0 Oxford, Parker off the bench. #oufc
— @AshleyHall07 12 February 2013
7:15pm
@OxfordMailOUFC Why does the pitch look like someone has driven a quad bike just in from the touchline? #oufc
— @captainox 12 February 2013
7:15pm
@OxfordMailOUFC 2-1 Batt and Smalley
— @Yellowtillidie 12 February 2013
7:10pm
RT @MincheryFarmWeb: @OxfordMailOUFC has someone been ploughing it. That looks horrendous.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 12 February 2013
7:09pm
@OxfordMailOUFC 2-2
— @Purple_monk 12 February 2013
7:09pm
These two only met 17 days ago, when Fleetwood romped to a 3-0 win against an out of sorts #oufc. Any score predictions tonight?
— @OxfordMailOUFC 12 February 2013
7:09pm
This game was originally scheduled for December 22, but was scrapped due to a waterlogged pitch. That explains the ivy on the programme...
— @OxfordMailOUFC 12 February 2013
7:05pm
@OxfordMailOUFC Wow.... and people said the pitch wouldn't be affected? That looks bobbly and just poor condition
— @Purple_monk 12 February 2013
7:02pm
Amazing how this #oufc pitch manages to look different with every game. Today we have long streaks on it... http://t.co/Uggwl7pj
— @OxfordMailOUFC 12 February 2013
7:01pm
Unsure about Craddock, it's not a major groin problem but it's obviously taking longer to heal than expected. Smalley gets a chance instead.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 12 February 2013
7:01pm
@OxfordMailOUFC when's Craddock back??
— @Chris_hogg 12 February 2013
6:59pm
Where are my manners? Good evening and welcome to the Kassam for #oufc v Fleetwood. How are we feeling tonight?
— @OxfordMailOUFC 12 February 2013
6:59pm
We make that two changes to the #oufc XI from Saturday. Smalley and Potter in for Richards and Capaldi, looks like a switch back to 4-4-2.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 12 February 2013
6:57pm
#oufc subs: Crocombe, Worley, O'Brien, Parker, Capaldi, Whing, Heslop

#oufc XI v Fleetwood: McCormick, Batt, Raynes, Wright, Davis, Potter, Chapman, Montrose, Rigg, Constable, Smalley
— @OxfordMailOUFC 12 February 2013
6:57pm
Good evening everyone and welcome to the Kassam Stadium, where Oxford United are hosting Fleetwood Town for the first time.
The U's are in need of a result after picking up just one point from the last 12, but the Cod Army will provide them with a stern test.
