The only thing that unites us, is Dr Marten's boots...

And this is an 18 laceholes, steel toecap, special...

So...

Score
Oxford's first goalscorer
Oxford's first yellow card
Oxford's first player substituted
Oxford's first substitute
Tiebreaker: Away attendance

Take it away, chaps

At last the chance to pick up boris on the use of an apostrophe after almost a decade of waiting!

Dr Martens boots are named after Dr. Klaus Martens and the name does not have an apostrophe in the same way that Gucci shoes or Paul Smith shirts don't have one. Even if it did have an apostrophe it would be at the end.

You could pick me up on that, or I could blame the website from which I copied and pasted the lyrics. I prefer the latter approach.

I note that most people (except Mally)are carefully giving a score without a result. So to continue that trend...
