CHRIS Wilder was delighted to see Oxford United storm past Rochdale on Saturday, but admitted he did not know if it was his last game in charge at the Kassam Stadium.

The U’s shrugged off a poor first half to win their penultimate game of the season 3-0 thanks to high-quality goals from Andy Whing, James Constable and Alfie Potter.

The victory came too late to salvage the club’s play-off hopes, however.

They were finally ended by Bradford City’s 1-0 win against Burton Albion.

Wilder joined the squad for the traditional lap of honour at the end of the final home game of the season.

But the United boss was unable to clarify his future, which will be decided by chairman Ian Lenagan.

Wilder said: “We are disappointed we’re not in and around the top seven, where we should be.

“But whatever happens I will walk away with my head held high if the decision is against me – and if it’s for me, I’ll work extremely hard.

“I don’t think we’re a million miles away and if we can address certain issues then we’ll go again.”

United never looked back after Whing opened the scoring with a bicycle kick – his first goal at the Kassam Stadium.

They went on to pull off their biggest home win for six months thanks to a thunderous effort from Constable and a superb counter-attack finished off by Potter.

“All three goals were great,” said Wilder, who took the sponsors’ man-of-the-match award off Max Crocombe and gave it to Whing.

“It was good we gave the supporters something to cheer about going home.

“I thought the ovation they gave us at the end was not as deserved as it should have been.

“They gave an ovation to a team that possibly would have been in the play-offs.

“All we want to do is compete, score some goals and try to win games.”

The one frustration was United had not been able to recreate the ruthlessness in front of goal more often this season.

Before Saturday’s game, they had managed to score just seven goals in the last 11 home games.

Wilder said: “It was a tight League Two game against a team in form, but that’s what decides games – a little bit of quality.

“There were three quality balls and three quality finishes.

“Maybe if we had had a bit more of that through the season then we would have finished a lot higher.”
