Dan, that is the first thing I've read relating to Oxford United that has genuinely made me laugh out loud (and not in a "you've got to laugh otherwise you'd cry" way) for years. Thank you.

I miss fanzines. :cry:

I should really get cracking on Yellow Fever issue 15. It feels like it's been ages. Have I missed anything since the last one? Mark Wright's still the manager I take it?

MotD 'Classic' FA Cup quarter finals programme yesterday featured highlights of Everton vs Ipswich from 1985. A pre-match montage included Adrian Heath skipping round a prostrate Steve Hardwick in front of the London Road for that infamous goal. Brocky's blushes were spared by the shortness of the clip however!

I have no idea of the validity of the figures quoted but thought I'd share details of Tom Craddock's current wages with you ...

The current market values are vaguely amusing too!

I cannot believe that someone in League 2 is earning over £300k per annum
Not sure where you got those figures from - I would doubt their validity
