Re: M40
Being realistic, I can't help feeling we've dodged a very expensive bullet. Wycombe will be straight down, and the poorer for it. We might have been the same.

Much banter between myself and younger brother (sadly a chairboy, as we moved to Bucks before he could learn the one true way)
Let's be thankful it's not a Tuesday!

Re: Freefall
If we do win the next two games, there's a slim chance we'll be in an automatic promotion slot. At which point we'll get some sort of collective nosebleed, faint, and wake up in April

Re: Portman Pleasures
I may be over-reading it, but I think that result could be a season-defining one, like Bradford last year . Coming off the back of our thumping of Wimbledon in midweek and with three very winnable games coming up, could this be the moment where we take this league by the scruff of the neck? Certain...

Re: Bapxit Day
I have no problem with us developing and selling young players. The only thing worse than having players people want to sign is having players that no-one wants to sign, as was the case from about 1997 until 2009. Reminds me of what I said when my own kids started to leave the nest: "The only ...

Re: Newcastle Utd
We missed our goalscorers - Mackie seems to be more battering ram than footballer these days and he was never prolific at the best of times. I can understand the desire to play Mackie as a starter, but he seems to be so much more effective when he comes off the bench to get in the face of tired def...
Re: Bolton
Suspend them would mean they go bust though surely, which means no club and lots of people out of a job - all for "competitive balance". I think it's better to give them every chance to turn it round, which is surely what we'd expect if it was us. IIRC when it WAS us, what we expected was...

Re: OUFC Women
Presumably you would prefer to see amateur teams playing fully professional teams under a mis-guided interpretation of pyramid structure. Yes! If those professional teams are good enough to beat the semi-pro teams (there are no 'amateur' teams in the WSL) then they can earn promotion. This is not a...

Re: OUFC Women
All WSL clubs were given the opportunity to join the new structure before any outside clubs were even able to apply to join, and all clubs that met the requirements of professional standards for the new structure, were guaranteed their place. So no franchising at the expense of anyone. The issue fo...

Re: Who do you want next?
Fascinating to see the difference today between Derby County fans, who are generally optimistic about the prospect of getting Lampard as a manager, and the slightly sniffier thoughts of a lot of Oxford fans above.
