He's been solid for us this season and he made some important saves at home against the rangers, aberdeen and dundee united. Long may it continue!

Not at all ashamed to admit that I wasn't happy with him signing permanently. I thought last season and the beginning of this season that he was very poor, considering the standard of the league.

Since Ibrox he's been fantastic. I honestly think his improvement is a big a reason as any for our improved results this season.

He'd shown massive improvement after a very poor opening to the season. He still doesn't fill me with any confidence and his is one of the positions in the squad we could improve/strenghthen imo.

Agreed, articles like that about goalkeepers just shouldn't be written. Sense the whole club just got a bit over confident. Rangers dropping points has given us a reprieve. We can now switch on and win this league. Fans should turn out, the team deserve the backing.

In fairness, Hibs and Ox set themselves up perfectly for this. Did it all themselves. Agree, he had a great season and will probably play a blinder in the coming weeks because of today. Just lack of concentration as he had nothing else to do in the match.

Depends if the striker is on the front foot running in and defender walking back. Or if the striker is just quicker! But it is annoying. No idea what Oxley was doing it was one of those moments you just look on in disbelief.

Leave him alone - he's been solid this season and made some really crucial saves.

Don't forget some of the horror shows we have had over the years and the Ox has been consistent.

Fans need to get off his back as we need him for the 2nd half of the season.

The reserve keeper is poor - did you see him in the friendlies and development games ?

If he was any good he wouldn't have been released by sides previously above us.

Oxley is a good keeper for this team. Still young, can pass/kick the ball well and has been very consistent this season.

As others have noted - fans easily want to kick him when he's down and rarely praise when he is faultless.

He defo did last season and I didn't rate him either. But when he's kept us in it (which I gave examples) the folk who don't rate him disappear then straight into him first mistake!

So because we're in this league I take it that means Cummings, McGinn, Keatings etc.. Are all poor because it's in a poor league and the good performances isn't worth bragging about?

Exactly McGinn was frustrated with his performance and lunged into a needless tackle. McGinn let us down more than the Ox did.

I thought Stubbs got his tactics spot on in the second half and we looked likely to score every time we broke. Despite Falkirk having most of the possession Oxley had little to do and his blunder must have seemed like Christmas come early to his critics on here. No doubt there are many others like them just waiting for this unbeaten run to end so as they can let rip once again at Stubbs and the players.

Strikers saved the day for Ox and a point that could be huge come the end of the season. IMO the team spirit Stubbs has generated could be the thing that sees us pip the Huns to the title. Sevco have only recently been tested and the cracks are beginning to show.

He's been much better this season and it was the kind of mistake he doesn't tend to make.

I'm more annoyed at him for shooting his mouth off before the game. It does feel a bit like he invited the mistake with his comments.

A bit like Tavernier, Waghorn and Warburton I think he needs to STFU and get on with doing a bit more talking on the park and not in the papers.

Exactly, and I'm big enough to come back and praise him! Last season he had many mistakes any keeper would be disappointed with. I didn't rate him and didn't want him back.

This season he's been terrific and he rightly should be praised. Yes he ballsed it up but one mistake in god knows how many now doesn't mean he's back to being ***** does it.

Anyway it's great to see folk who just can't praise him come on to kick into him after this mistake.

I disagree on McGinn as the lad charged into the box through a clothes lining and a barreling which caused him to spin right before he made that tackle with the momentum of escaping a two player flailing melee from Falkirk. I will back McGinn 100% on this. Probably a red card but perhaps a side effect from being the type of attacking player he is and the challenges he ran through. Stubbs will tell him to keep making these runs into the box because he will rarely get a red card and 4 times out of ten it might be a goal or a penalty. His edge and aggression is exactly what we need and the occasional red card will be far outweighed by his goal and assist tally over the season.

Oxley was 100% at fault but that was the first mistake for quite a long time. What was his last mistake before this one?

Haven't seen it since yesterday but it looked a shocker at the time and his reaction suggested that too. He has to take the blame but I've always defended him and he has been excellent this season.

Falkirk's keeper totally fumbled a shot in the first half yesterday but it squirmed just past the post. That was how our day went, mostly.

Oxley is improving and I'm delighted he's our keeper. Wouldn't swap him for anyone else in this league.
