Re: Hoping history does not repeat itself
Bit worried about Saturday though. Beating Fleetwood at home when they're out of form and the manager's on the cusp of sacking is one thing (even if we're down to the bare bones); going to Rotherham will be different gravy entirely, and I fear they'll rip us a new one.

Re: Takeover / stadium
Any half-competent lawyer worth their salt can get round a covenant on a piece of land - especially if, as in this case, there wasn't a willing tenant anyway.recordmeister wrote: ↑Sat Nov 13, 2021 11:43 pm - what could happen to the stadium after we leave, after that date (is there a covenant that ‘professional football’ must be played there)?

Takeover / stadium
What do we make of this news then?
New balance of ownership
New ambition (rise from Div 3 to Div 2 in two years)
New stadium?!?

Re: Where are they now?
I had a free Saturday today whilst visiting my in-laws in Dorset so went to watch Wimborne Town v Farnborough in the Southern Prem. Both Sam Deering and Ricky Holmes started for the visitors and absolutely bossed the game. Farnborough won’t be at that level for long - they have great quality through...

Shitenham
First game of the season for me, yesterday, and what a disappointment it was. Such a good opportunity to settle ourselves and get an away win in front of a packed house, a vocal travelling support and against a very very average Cheltenham side. And for 45 mins, it looked on - we had them on toast i...
Re: Cambridge
There's no comparison between watching a match live in person and streaming/televising it. I would think that's the majority opinion for all football fans who actually go to matches. Quite so, my dear old thing. But of course it’s not the view of the suits at the Football League or the TV companies...
Re: Cambridge
Well it it was very frustrating for me NOT being able to watch a match for the first time in over a year. I was always very much in favour of the Saturday afternoon TV blackout before, but now that kick-offs are so spread out anyway, and plenty of people still don't think it's a very sensible idea ...

Re: “We need to act like a Championship club…”
I also think it's unrealistic to keep a player at the club who wants to move. Legally you'd be within your rights, but in reality it'd sour the mood in the dressing room and send the wrong message out to future signings about how we treat players. We've made a success in recent years out of buying p...

Re: Fishy Gills
Is it... on? I mean, I know teams around us have games in hand but we are hitting form at exactly the right time. And today’s result was the sort that makes you think it could be Your Year™. Imagine the flipping limbs (as I believe the youth call it) if there had been a crowd in today. And oh how I ...

Re: Season Over?
Taylor is a true number 9. For years we’ve wanted a regular goal scorer. The mythical 20 goal striker. Well he’s got 14 (?) in 3/4 of a season. Some will never be satisfied. The current Fence End pod episode makes the very good point that Taylor is a great player at this level, but we need to suppl...

Re: Season Over?
I agree with you. That’s our season done now. Mid-table mediocrity. I’m okay with that, I think - to make the playoffs two years running and not be able to go would have been a real killer. I just hope the ownership stuff all gets sorted swiftly so we go into next season with some certainty. Where I...

Anyone a size M?
I'm having a clearout, and have a navy blue OUFC zip top from the 2015/16 promotion season (with an Ox head on the breast and "Oxford United" across the back) and a generic navy blue OUFC polo shirt (with Ox head logo) going free to a good home. Both in decent condition and have a few more...

Rickety Buckets! Rabbity Biscuits! What fun we had with him. F*cking useless.
