Re: Oxford Cty

Sleep walking to disaster I'd say. What in tarnation are the good people at City up to? This man is the most obvious asset stripper since Maxwell.

It would never happen on Oxvox's watch!

Re: Possible league reform

Come on chaps. It won't go ahead though will it? It's a stalking horse for a watered down compromise i.e. parent and feeder clubs. i.e. we formally link up with gulp ...say Reading and they let us have their loanees for a season. This route is also totally unacceptable to me. I agree with Mooro and ...

Re: Incoming!

Classic gossip this. During the Easter holiday, my son did a football course, proudly (ish) wearing his Oxford shirt every day. One of the coaches told me his landlord was about to resign for Oxford. His landlord was a member of our Conference play-off team, I'll leave it there and let you guess. W...

Re: Andrew Melville....

Cone Man should be shown the door. (Have no idea re his contract terms though.)
Kuhl left Wycombe under a cloud didn't he? Maybe it's time for a bully boy approach to the players though?

Re: Any ol' iron

As an exile, my thoughts for next season are that I shall go and watch a couple of home matches at the start whilst the pitch is in good shape (I presume) and see what the new squad is like under the new manager. After that, when rugby and rain kicks in, I am not prepared to give up a Saturday to w...

Re: York

The pitch wasn't that bad. It was the same for both teams as well. This was a game for Whing, we got out-physicalled in midfield. Thought York were very decent and I'd see them as promotion candidates on that showing. Our performance was no disaster, there is a lot of promise being shown by the youn...

Re: Luton

Luton is a proper football club - they've done their stir and I'm pleased they have got back. It's not their fault that some nasty right wingers live in Luton.

I look forward to another FL game at Kenilworth Road - hopefully not next season though.

Re: Military Day

What a freaking idiot. Comparing our country to North Korea. Amen to Smiley Man by the way. I think it's perfectly possible to agree with SmileyMan's defence of and respect for our brave boys while also sharing Jimski's (and others') unease about the glorification of military activity in general, e...

Re: Military Day

What a freaking idiot. Comparing our country to North Korea. Amen to Smiley Man by the way. Ah yes, the "ad hominem" approach to argument. Always a winner... I simply do not agree that an annual Military Day 'event' is in any way a 'glorification' of our armed forces. It's an opportunity ...

Re: Military Day

So glad I can't make the Fleetwood game now I know it's "Military Day". I'd rather leave glorification of the military to the likes of North Korea, thank you. Amen to that. Worryingly, the club seem to be pushing this agenda consistently every year, so I'm guessing someone at Grenoble Roa...

Re: The 12th Man initiative

Once upon a time (well, lots of times actually) at all the entrances of The Manor Ground you could buy a copy of Yellow Fever or Rage On for just a quid and pick up a free copy of FOULMouth as well as picking up information on fledgling internet forums and it was all in harmony with fans working to...

Re: The 12th Man initiative

Agree 100% with GY. Trevor and Sally have resigned their Oxvox life membership? How very sad.
Think all right minded members who care should get along to Oxvox AGM on Saturday and ask a few questions.
