Brad-thud of big boots

Post by Mr T »

How did Wimbledon NOT get 4 or more cards on Sunday?!
However, ...
This Saturday we entertain 2nd placed Bradford City, one of only 3 unbeaten sides in the top 5 divisions (you'd be surprised by one of the other 2; well I was!), who have conceded just 7 goals in the league, so far. So, an 'easy' game...

1. Will Oxford win, lose, or draw? (1 point)
2. How many changes from our starting XI on Sunday? (1 pt)
3. How many goals will Oxford score? (1 pt)
4. How many goals will Bradford score? (1 pt)
5. Will Oxford be awarded a penalty? (1 pt)
6. How many Bradford fans? (2 pts if within* 100, 1 pt within 200)

TB: Total attendance (no repeats, and earliest wins, if still level)

* For clarity, 'within 100' does include being exactly 100 out!

As we headed into injury time I was winning with 4 pts, and Mooro was on 0, but thankfully Mr Maguire changed all that...

Out of a maximum of 7pts, we all did naff, but special mention must go to Radley Rambler who was only 5 out on the (not needed) tie breaker for the total attendance, and we all seriously underestimated the Bantams' away following!

So:
1 point = Hoglette, Geoff, Mooro
2 = Radley Rambler, Mr T, Ancient Colin, Hog, Boogie
which leaves
3 = Old Abingdonian!

We all send you to Coventry...!
