New Boot

Post by Hog »

As winner of the final Boot of last season I think it's down to me to set the Burton Boot so:

1. Name the OUFC starting back four (1pt for each)
2. How many players aged under 23 will feature on the pitch for OUFC, inc playing subs? (2pts for correct number)
3. Name up to 3 OUFC subs who come on filling any gaps with None if you think less than 3. (1pt for each correct name or None)
4. Name first scorer for OUFC or say None or Opponent OG (2pts)
5. Will the reported crowd be (a) Under 4500 (b) 4500-5000 inclusive (c) over 5000 (2 pts)
6. Total number of yellow cards (both teams) (2 pts)
7. Oxford to (a) win (b) lose or (c) draw (2pts)
8. In the inevitable post match league table will OUFC be (a) Top 8 (b) Middle 8 or (c) Bottom 8?

TB. Total attendance

Given the nature of the questions, I presume that any entries post 1.30 will be null and void?
