Re: Finally

From a Wombles-supporting mate on Meades: &quotOutstanding. My vote for player of the year. Superb in so many positions. RB, LB, defensive mid, attacking mid, right wing. Am gutted to hear we missed out on him if I'm honest... He was with Ardley at Cardiff's academy and flourished. Then went to ...

Surprised they don't hold it at a neutral venue. Mad that they could be in the Conference next year. On recent history, expect them to sign Batt, Duberry, Craddock etc during the close season...

Brackley Town

Through to the BSP North play-off final, fair play. Nice to see the official retirement home for knackered OUFC ex-pros going so well. Anyone planning to go to the playoff final? Where/when is it?

Re: Retained list

&quothe does a lot of work off the ball&quot ....... Typically, I find that a polite way of saying: &quotRuns around a lot and contributes sod all&quot Quite. Like others, I'm surprised about Batt and Davis, but even moreso by Smalley! I'm guessing at least some of the above were of...

Re: Have we ever.....

...in an ideal world the Conference Play-Off final should be held at the Millennium rather than Wembley this Sunday as at least the posh seats won't look so embarrassingly empty on the TV. Not sure about that. It'd still be a 3-4 hour trip for Wrecsam fans to play in a stadium far too big for the g...

Re: Press Conference...

I think that following these comments it was a little disappointing that we didn't start Marsh on Saturday and bring on O'Dowda. Again it was cautious (sure we are no Crewe but even so the game was not important and why not give more of the youngstres more time on the pitch?) Quite. I'd never bemoa...

Re: Press Conference...

Is it just me, or did Wilder's speech at the Press Conference sound suspiciously like it was written by the same person who wrote ILs speech? I got the distinct impression that many of Wilder's comments were made whilst he had his arm well and truly behind his back. On p2 of this thread, I posted t...

Re: Press Conference...

Having read the statement properly, it is a well-articulated and well-reasoned defence of a difficult decision. As I said on p1, personally I would have said 'thanks and goodbye' to Wilder - but it's a marginal decision either way, and I can respect those making the argument for keeping him. A few s...

Re: Press Conference...

The club has now put a statement on the website : I am here to today to review the past season, on which more shortly, and to announce that the Board of Oxford United has decided to re-appoint Chris Wilder as Manager of Oxford United. I am fully aware that many supporters, perhaps even a majority of...

Oh god, bloody Dougie is on Radio Oxford. Time for some expert analysis... :roll:

Can't see Wilder being sacked if he's at the conference.

Re: Press Conference...

In all seriousness, my guess is the same as Mooro's - IL will publicly back his man, renew his contract, make clear his expectation and say how he will be backing Wilder (ie, which players will be released and what resources are available to replace them). If so, it's not what I would have done - bu...

What's the sound I can hear in the distance? is it the faint hum of helicopter blades as Les Ferdinand prepares to land somewhere is east Oxfordshire...?
