We have met Oxford United 33 times in League and Cup action. Our first was back in 1933 in the FA Cup 1st round which we won 5-1 at the old Manor Ground.
Actually Oxford (or Headington as we were then) didn't enter the FA Cup in 1933.

Oxford v Gills

In answer to Boris who said, Actually Oxford (or Headington as we were then) didn't enter the FA Cup in 1933.

Found this link that records Oxford v Gill in the F.A. Cup 1933

You should never trust a website with the word 'mad' in the title.

It was Oxford City who Gillingham beat in '33.

Also confirmation at the bottom of our appalling record versus Gillingham
