Well, that was a thoroughly pleasant day - for me, anyway. Met some friends in Cardiff city centre, then a lovely walk through Bute Park for a coffee before stopping at a few of Pontcanna's better pubs and the Chapter Arts Centre for beers en-route to the Cardiff City Stadium. We were then bathed in...

My concern is taking all of this and looking at next season. I cannot imagine any of the three teams coming down from the Prem doing a Luton, whilst Birmingham and Wrexham will surely be spending big. We shall have to invest and improve, if we are not only to survive again, but finish anywhere near...

Well that was pretty dispiriting last night. I suppose in the big picture, if I'd told you a week ago that we'd get three points out of back-to-back home games against Sheff Utd and QPR, we'd have taken it - but to beat the former and then look so insipid against the latter is a punch to the guts. M...

Yes, I've reached the same conclusion too. A shame, as I never bothered with The Other Place and can't really be arsed now - but as Colin's said, things change. I probably have too, watching far fewer Oxford games than I did when I first posted on here and instead watching sides closer to my South W...

Yes, quite right. At the time Wright was playing for us, Saunders was with Forest and with Sheffield United, both of whom would have visited the Manor so maybe the young lad just wanted a pic with one of his national heroes!

Anyone else remember Anthony / Tony Wright, who we had as a youngster for a few seasons in the late 90s? I recall him being a creative, exciting central midfielder who didn't really fit with our blood-and-thunder, hit-the-channels / get-it-straight-to-the-big-man style so he got released and faded a...

Well I've thoroughly enjoyed reading everyone's reports and listening to all the various podcasts since Saturday, and feeling the sense of sheer joy (and surprise) at the victory. It felt... too easy, almost? But as others have said, part of the reason Bolton didn't play well is that we didn't let t...

Didn't expect us to overcome Peterborough, delighted we did. I shall be at Wembley - but like you, the cost and logistics of it all are galling. Personally, I can't stand Wembley games. It's everything I dislike about modern football: vast, impersonal, lots of being herded around and subject to rule...

Not living in Oxford anymore, I’m not as close to the county’s politics as I once was. Can someone who knows this stuff please explain the implication of this week’s council election results in Cherwell for United’s chances of getting permission for the new stadium? Lib Dems now the largest party on...

I will be in Cardiff on Saturday night, can you suggest a pub that will have the game on? City centre, god knows, maybe The Rummer Tavern opposite the castle? But if you're anywhere around Cathays then The Crwys or The Blackweir have been obliging for me in the past when I've asked them to put Oxfo...

Very happy to have been proved wrong.

I’m not clear from the bits I’ve read on the socials: is the game definitely definitely on S*y Sp*rts? If so, I’ll need to find a pub in Dorset showing it as I’ll be at my in-laws’ for the weekend…

It's not the despair, Laura. I can take the despair. It's the hope I can't stand. Indeed. And after today’s results, I think that’s it. If I was in a charitable mood (and I am, as I’ve been on the cider to celebrate the first properly sunny Saturday of the year), I’d say that we were in the playoff...

I have a VPN, and I know this option is available, but it's against the law. I'm not moralising about what anyone else chooses to do, but I'm not willing to do it myself.

Tuesday was gutting, wasn't it. Lincoln didn't look that great, but they did a job on us. Tomorrow night is massive now if we're to regain the momentum that we want to have going into the playoffs. P*sses me off that I can't get an audio pass to listen to the commentaries for these games. I can't ju...
