We have met Oxford United 33 times in League and Cup action. Our first was back in 1933 in the FA Cup 1st round which we won 5-1 at the old Manor Ground.
Actually Oxford (or Headington as we were then) didn't enter the FA Cup in 1933.

In answer to Boris who said, Actually Oxford (or Headington as we were then) didn't enter the FA Cup in 1933.

Found this link that records Oxford v Gill in the F.A. Cup 1933

You should never trust a website with the word 'mad' in the title.

It was Oxford City who Gillingham beat in '33.

A decent write up here:

Also confirmation at the bottom of our appalling record versus Gillingham
