Looks a promising signing but not a striker.

Preston possibly looking in pole position for Jayden Stockley - Peter Crouch anyone?
Stockley has gone to Preston for £750K

Re: Robinson Out

Well I'd rather we had him than give him away to our relegation rivals for crying out loud what are we thinking?!? We're thinking this guy has some personal issues that we do our best to help resolve. Before the Plymouth game KR said McM had been affected by a death in the family and so wanted to b...

Can anyone smell Gas?

Well the run is well and truly over now. Another appalling performance in front of a big crowd. The casuals will take a long time to return following this and the Boxing Day debacle. Smith has gone back to Reading, McMahon is on his way out, we have a midfielder who KR has stated is regarded as the ...

Re: Singing the Big-Crowd Blues

Disappointing performance, disappointing result, disappointing crowd. Boxing Day has traditionally been a big match day in Oxford for as long as I can remember. Where was everyone? I wonder if the arrival of Jordan Graham, is indeed the (seemingly obvious) indicator of the loss of Marcus Browne and ...

Re: You’re not singing any more

I’m less convinced by the “KR is a tactical genius” trope. Most of us were saying last Easter that Mousinho wasn’t a centre-back and should be played at centre mid. THe fact that it took Gobbo until October to try it confirms my suspicion that he’s a paid-up member of the Slow Learners Club. I’m al...

Re: You’re not singing any more

I was going to post a message along these lines a few days ago. It has been a remarkable turnaround in form, coinciding with the return of Eastwood in goal, moving of Mousinho to defensive midfield, and Mackie reaching fitness just as Obika got injured. Also a huge mention for Henry, who was being c...

Re: January Transfer Window

When complaining about the loan system, remember that we use it as well for developing talent. 5 U23s have gone out on loan today and we have 13 of our development squads out on loan in total now. I tend to agree with Abingdon, the entire football structure is now set up to maximise benefits for Pre...

Re: January Transfer Window

Striker please. That is by far the biggest priority.

I'm happy with the midfield.
I'm happy with the goalkeeping.

Both full back positions could do with upgrading as well.

Re: You're winding me up!

***Conspiracy alert*** haven't seen this anywhere else but ... could Tiger now be in cahoots with YKW and will wind up the club and thus negate the need for the stadium in exchange for a cut of the subsequent development deal?

Re: You're winding me up!

The winding up petition has now been published in the Gazette. Shit just got real. That's really not very clever, allowing the club to get this close to insolvency. Hearing is set for 19 December. The unpaid tax is not, and never has been, the club's money, so there is no valid excuse. I've long be...

Re: Just how desperate for a striker are we???

IF...... and it's a big IF, we can ignore his past and offer him a future, the most important thing is his role in the team. He has a goal scoring record of 26 in 160 games, including substitute appearances, (albeit with a lot of games at a higher level) how does this help solve our eyewateringly o...
