Re: Wembley? Wem-bleurgh, more like

Shame to lose the unbeaten Wembley record, but not too many complaints really (only that I thought Hylton looked to have been fouled at the start of the move that led to Hammill's excellent winning goal). Barnsley came out very strongly at the start of the second half, pressed us hard and stopped us...

Re: Bloody awful

Worst performance of the season without question, and we save it for possibly the most important game of the season. Absolutely no reflection on JJK but with Baldock gone we have no outlet. Neither Roofe (or Maguire when he plays on the left) or Macca are out-and-out wingers and so the crosses have ...

Re: Dip?

Very lethargic for the first 25 minutes - I can't make up my mind whether it was due to not having played for over a week or the intensity of so many cup games taking it out on them. Whatever it was I think Mansfield were full value for their lead. However from the point at which we equalised until ...

James Roberts to Oxford City, and Jonny Giles to Southport, both on month-long loan deals.

Re: Transfer news

Absolutely gutted George is leaving. The best right back we've had since Dave Langan, no question. Enormous thanks for the fun GB, and best of luck at MKD - and whichever Championship team picks you up when they get relegated. :roll: Here's hoping JJK settles in to the style and pattern of play quic...

Re: Notts to be sniffed at

I have to say I'm not a frequent attender of away games (that was my first this season), but that was the most enjoyable awayday I've had with the U's since Crewe in 1996. Some of the football we played was absolutely magnificent, was like watching a team playing in easy mode in FIFA! Plus the fact ...

Re: Traditional post-Christmas slump

A draw was indeed a fair result, although either side could have nicked it. We had too many players who were off their game yesterday: Sercombe, Lundstram, O'Dowda and Roofe were all some way short of their best form. That said, Carlisle made it very difficult for us, very competitive (it felt like ...

Re: OXFORD v Plymouth Argyle

My better half and I were reflecting on the way home when it was last this enjoyable being an Oxford fan and we settled on our last promotion season back in the mid nineties. That's nearly 20 years of the doldrums (with the obvious oasis of our 2010 Wembley win). Yesterday's first half performance w...

Re: What a night.

I thought the Moonrakers were looking quite dangerous while they had 11 men, despite our having our fair share of chances. However after one of the dumbest ways of getting sent off I've ever seen (why do that right in front of a) the ref and lino, and b) thousands of noisy, pumped up Oxford fans? Cr...

Re: Managerial Merry-go-round

And I'm sure the whole of football is in mourning as Rotherham part company with Steve Evans and Paul Raynor.

Re: Best since Wembley

I'm really sad I can't get back to the KasStad until October now (being one of those people who frequently works on Saturdays). That was the best performance I've seen in ages and actually what was most encouraging is there remains room for further improvement; I agree with GY that Slocombe's unwill...

Wembley... and you f****d it up

What do Reading, Wycombe and Slumdon have in common (apart from being our local rivals)?

They say no-one remembers Wembley losers.

This year, I most definitely will.

A load of Cobblers

Well that was my last game of the season and quite frankly I'm not sad about that. What a complete load of tosh, particularly in the first half where we made Wilder's lot look like Barcelona. Half time possession report showed Northampton with 66% and I wasn't surprised at all. We had absolutely no ...
