Re:

Not many people read the OxVox forum these days, so sorry to inform you about that. Even my cat has lost interest. However, it’s good to hear that you have so many hits on your website, but the couple of own goals in such a short space of time that we scored at your place may account for some of yo...

Re:

[quote=&quotSnake&quot]“ As to why we have a forum and do we need one Snake, why not? One of the criticisms of OxVox is cliqueyness (that ain’t a proper word btw), and one way to address that a bit is to host a forum which anyone can join, if a member of the supporters' trust or not, and say...

Well, we've managed to get the OxVox website back up (I can sense the expressions of relief in RO-land as I type), and our various email forwarding facilities are back in action too. The forum might be recoverable, or we may be looking at a rebuild from the most recent backup we can find. Indeed we ...

Again, these are observations not criticisms. I'm quite intrigued that anyone managed to enter the stadium without finding the juniors with the buckets inside their usual entrance. The strategy of putting the collectors inside the turnstiles rather than having them wandering the areas outside the st...

There's obviously two ways of looking at today's collection. But there are reasons why this is not the same as a general bucket rattling exercise for club funds, though it looks like one if you are unaware of the background. From the trust's point of view YD is the one area of the club where a) we c...

Re:

1. It would have been better if Trev had said nothing rather than what he did, which was to criticise fellow OUFC activists. And the interview with ITV was awful, with an obviously stage managed walk up to the microphone. 2. When we were at that tip point and a very real public crisis WAS happening...

You mean fleece them even more? Brilliant! That's cheered me up no end.

I think we agree on most of this but a couple of points:

Re:

That's not right though Trevor. It wouldn't be a double hit of reducing numbers and reducing prices, because the numbers are going to fall anyway.Its about how to prevent an even bigger decline, coupled with the need to get people come back in much larger numbers and re-establish the club as people...

Re:

What's the message limit on this board? Here's the rest of my effort. ----- Of course GY is free to put his view to the club himself, but one of the points of a trust is to act collectively and provide a view reflecting the balance of its members. GY's premise that the general price level is too hig...

I'm pretty much in agreement with Hog, though I'm still undecided about next season, and won't decide until prices and ticket packages are announced for next season.

Re:

That's the point. It has huge potential. No more cobblers about how 'great' the Manor is please. It was a hideous embarrassment in the last 5 years of its life. I much prefer going to the current stadium for my matchday experience. So do my family. I reckon that if we had had the same on pitch slid...

Re: Nick Freeman aka " Mr Loophole "

Has today patented the name Mr Loophole as that is what people know him as, rather than Mr Nick Freeman. He has previously defended the likes of Sir Alex Ferguson and David Beckham (amongst others). Apparently he charges £10,000 per day to represent you. Report from BBC FIVE LIVE. Seeing as I now w...

We have invited him to pop his head round the door.
Hello Snake, as my rising friend says, an invitation has been extended.
