Re: Nuke it

But most of the collars are either too small or too floppy to be of practical benefit.

I prefer a v-neck collarless football shirt.

Nuke it

No, I'm not talking about Trump, but the strip for next year.

Looks very similar to the 18/19 kit, bar the loss of collar. Not sure it is different enough to justify 45 quid.

Re: LEAGUE ONE 2019-2020

Although it is unlikely to be a new ground for many (even I have been there), I hear that Coventry City are in 'advanced talks' with Birmingham City to ground-share for next season. This person suggested that Cov fans will be even less impressed with this idea second time around. If this happens, i...

Re: LEAGUE ONE 2019-2020

Bolton is the only ground I'm missing in that lot, so I'll be visiting them this season.

Hopefully, we'll get a couple of new grounds in the cups.

Re: Summer transfers 2019

Berkoe looks like one with potential for development. Not sure why just a 1 year deal though as that suggests less than full confidence in the signing.

Re: OUFC's weirdest ever tweet

Not sure how the club can speak about this on behalf of the players and staff, who almost certainly know nothing about it.

It is a bit bizarre.

Resumé

I went to Loo Town Town yesterday. I love the old school atmosphere of Kenilworth Road, but oh how I hate the squalid conditions forced upon us for top dollar. There'll be complaints in the Championship about the state of that ground, which really is 30+ years past the point it should have been cond...

Re: The Priory.

A potential fine of £2,500 is never going to persuade Kassam to spend tens of thousands of pounds. I really wish I knew more about planning issues and how to resolve them. The part of me that knows about contract law clearly shows that Kassam is in breach of contract with respect to his lease on the...

Re: You're winding me up!

I am genuinely excited by this but not getting carried away until the man himself makes a formal statement........ Perhaps those dark days of trips to Droylesden, St. Albans, Grays, Hayes & Yeading etc. might just have been worth it after all. Where was I when we were sh*t, see the aforemention...

Re: You're winding me up!

This translated from an interview with our new Director on Kompas.com

"The owners and directors of Oxford United agreed and were determined to pass the football club to the Leaque Championship or Division One Premier League, within the next two years."

Re: Chris Wilder

Given the situation we were in, why was he (IIRC) offered a one year rolling contract? I'm pretty sure you don't recall correctly. If I rcc, Wilder had been on a rolling contract, but Lenagan gave him a 1-year fixed contract at the beginning of his last season with Us instead. I pointed out at the ...

Re: You're winding me up!

Also for Tiger to make a quick buck if it is Thohir taking over, means Thohir would have to pay a significant amount of money just for the club, as there would be the cost of what Tiger bought the club for, plus what has had to be spent running the club since then (if of course that wasn't coming f...

Re: Robbed versus Rovers

How many players have left our youth system and made us regret that decision - Sam Ricketts is the only one I can think of going back years! That begs the question whether we hang on to some of these young players for too long. I think KR has certainly filled the remit in making use of development ...
