TK Maxx or MK non-Dons?

Post by Mr T »

There's a dilemma for many Oxford fans this weekend; do they follow their team at the Stadium MK, or choose to go shopping with the family instead of lining the pockets of Mr Winkleman.
I have prepared a Boot below, but some may choose to boycott. a la Checkatrade?
Here goes...
1 How many changes, if any, to the starting XI from last Saturday? (1 point)
2 Will Ryan Taylor start?! (1 pt)
3 Total number of goals scored? (2 pts; 1 pt if 1 out)
4 Will there be a penalty awarded to either side? (1 pt)
5 Will Marvin 'Magic' Johnson score? (1 pt)
6 Will George Baldock receive a yellow/red card?! (1 pt)
7 Will we win, lose or draw? (1 pt)
8 What league position will we be in on Sat evening? (2 pts; 1 pt if 1 out)

TB: Attendance? (No repeats. Earliest entry wins if still a tie)

+ Will Karl Robinson greet MApp with a warm handshake?!

1) None, they probably wont have anything in I like, which is my size, in stock.
2) I don't think that they have a till operator with that name.
3) None but a few credits for going shopping with Mrs Boogie.
4) Yes credit card will take a battering.
5) Who knows what goes on in the changing rooms.
6) I think they have to give their staff a verbal warning first.
7) Lose in there.
8) 7th

TB: Not me.

+ Will Karl Robinson greet MApp with a warm handshake?! How is this going to be assessed? Who comprises the panel? I am confident that 99% of assessors could accurately and impartially identify whether a handshake took place, but the qualifier 'warm' is very subjective. This is, I suppose, Baldock (good collaboration) v Hall (you nicked out player). The MK press seems to blame Hall not OUFC, so yes, on balance.
