Re:

Brahma Bull said the minutes were &quotpassed and signed off&quot by Kelvin Thomas. Perhaps I'm reading too much into that but I get the feeling that OxVox committee members are far too cautious about their relationship with the club and KT in particular. If the minutes have to be signed of...

Re: Horrible

A performance of such dimwittedness, such lack of passion and such lack of craft in the second half that I cannot rouse myself to comment any further. Henceforth I renouce the title Ascension Ox and become Sackcloth Ox. Enjoy your evening :cry: I reckon you should change your handle to &quotCan...

You're an RBS banker right? Stop wasting time on non league football fora, you're working for me and the shareholders want a dividend pdq.. :wink: Not as much as I want my bonus back up to it's proper level.

Re: Clutching at straws...

Why are we 'clutching at straws'? Chances of going up have receded,yes,but they haven't disappeared! Anyone with the slightest knowledge of trend analysis can see that we are sinking and fast, there is no lifeboat coming to save us therefore what else do we have to cling to? the promise of the team...

Disagree.

Maybe the 12th Man Fund people could arrange for a case of Southern Comfort to be deliverered to Les Wells' house?

Yes, yes, Snake is barking mad. :shock:

Agreed. You're a supporter, why don't you do it?

Re: Clutching at straws...

Clutching at straws, because, let's face it, that's all we can do now... Luton and Stevenage get involved in a fearsome race for the title, which goes right down to the last day with both capable of going up... One team snatches a dramatic late goal/concedes a late equaliser/misses a late chance th...

Re:

Our back line was very poor again, with Rhys Day the main culprit this time and Jake Wright not far behind. I'm going to have to bite again I'm afraid. Either you're being facetious or we're watching different matches. I agree about Day who was woeful but Jake Wright was probably MOTM. He won almos...

Re:

We were very very lucky to escape with the win. Our back line was very poor again, with Rhys Day the main culprit this time and Jake Wright not far behind. Some in the crowd were berating Chalmers, but I thought he was by no means our worst player and actually tried to take on the Gateshead players...

Oxford 3 (Constable/M Green/Chapman) Gateshead 0

5,562 (39 from the frozen steppes)

UE: PA plays Deutsche Amerikane Freundschaft/Kraftwerk medley at half time. And something by Jimmy Nail. Wilder punches a supporter after the game. Kas Stad Kate asks an intelligible post match question.
