I never understood why we signed Oxley in the first place. Surely there were experienced pros of a similar quality available who could've come in, helped Ted to develop while filling the number 1 shirt for a season or two and letting Ted get some game time too, then moved on/retired. At 25, Oxley doesn't really have the experience to help Ted and he's not very good either. Based on performances so far this season, I'd stick with Ted, on another day yesterday's goal gets disallowed and he's kept a clean sheet against top of the league and everyone would be saying he's the new Dan Bentley if not better.
My thoughts exactly, Oxley does not bring anything to the table - there were better options during the summer, such as Brian Murphy, (now 3rd choice keeper at Cardiff), or even Richard Wright (now recently retired) both would have been more competent than Oxley and both could have filled the 'mentor / temp. No.1' position, which we need - anyway too late now...
I'd stick with Ted, it'll be a harsh learning curve (next 2 games will be a stern test especially), but the experience will prove positive in the long run.
