A Facebook group called “Aplerton Out”. Is this a joke with the spelling? Don’t get it. ('cos I'm well out of touch) Slappy - as you're a member, is this a joke? (I mean the spelling as much as the group's apparent aim). I'm wondering if the "Wilder Out" FB crew will transfer en masse. So...

There's something extremely suspicious about all of this. I just can't put my finger on it. I just can't work out how. It's interesting that Eales apparently became really defensive when asked whether he was in it for a property deal - a reasonable question given our experience with Kassam. It's al...

Umpteen police at the game on Saturday. God knows how much it cost. OUFC fans behaved pretty well I thought. Decent atmosphere - result excepted I'm glad I made the effort. Loved the ground, thoroughly disliked he environs. No new building or renovation taking place at all. I feel sorry for the peop...

I actually thought the crowd was quite decent all things considered. Only Plymouth and Pompey had more in L2 last night and the Accy fans came in a taxi - as usual. Whatever some of the many nay sayers on the forum have to say about the current squad, (ooh, lets glory in how close Oxford City are to...

You can't say the wheels have come off after two away draws in succession really, can you? I wasn't at Exeter but saw some decent signs at Southend. It goes without saying that we have to start winning . I predict 4 points in next two games. We won't beat Stevenage. We never do. It's lack of will t...

I think the wheels need to be on first before they can come off...

It's not like it's two hammerings though. Is it?

I'm none the wiser on our prospects based on these contrary reports.

I doubt Morecambe are very good though.

Are we sure preference shares don't get round the salary cap? Isn't that based purely on turnover? Talking of money introduced for the benefit of the club by supporters, what exactly has happened to the 12th Man fund? I contributed to the fund - and raised money for it - in the expectation that it w...

Yes gates were low in the 90's but they never felt low at the Manor which was always an exciting day out What absolute hogwash Ty. You could roll up at the London Road entrance at ten to three on a match day in the 80's and 90's even, stand on a piss drenched terrace, asbestos roof above you, crap ...

I want to see a normal draw, where Oxford might get lucky and have three or four ties against relatively lowly opponents and get a cup run together (when was the last time we had one of those‽) Last season in the FA Cup. Five matches we played. And still no-one turned up and everyone whinged about ...

Believe there was a pre-draw for home and away. Pity, will be away that week, would have liked to have gone to Hawthorns, never been before .

We'll make a few quid. 10,000 crowd say? £60-£70K coming in and not budgeted for? That's Ashton's wages paid for a month ;]

Yes --- but as an alternative how exactly would we have all been feeling if Lenagan was still at the helm with just the two signings, Danny Hylton and some new no mark midfielder on the pitch? Let's give the new regime some time hey? Not that I was massively encouraged by Saturday. Neater football y...

But old GY, does admittedly seems to be of the 'cricket score ' persuasion ;]

I'm reminded of an adage from an old business colleague and mentor, regarding letting accountants run your business: "When it's time to bat, you send out a batsman. When it's time to bowl, you send out a bowler. The scorer stays in the pavillion and adds things up." Many accountants are v...
