Oxfords first match of the campaign to get back into the F L has now kicked off.
44 years since they have been in the conference, hopefully short lived.

I'm sure that Oxford United will have no problem beating the Fox and Hound and The Peckham Bowling Club this season. :D

By the way, I thought that Dantilley was the only Oxford Utd supporter on this forum. :o

Well it was Halfax today, 2-0 new signing Duffy with a first half pen and Burgess with a second half screamer.

Although I believe it will get tougher particularly against Pecham with a midfield of Trotter, Trotter and Granddad Trotter, the boy Trotter up front and Raquel in Goal.

Dagenham on Tuesday.

Good Luck to all

You also forgot to mention the twin strikeforce of Trigger and Boyce. But I heard that Boyce had a ruck with Marleen, so he might not be playing. In addition to that, you might be in luck as I hear that Denzil and Mickey Pearce are currently in the nick. :D

Good to see there's another U's supporter on this forum!

We managed to score one against Man United in a friendly the other week, and gave Ronaldo a suitable amount of pre-season abuse apparently. But you know you're in worrying times when an old mate's brother from up the road who we used to kick a ball around with in the park set up the goal! Included a mean tackle on Ronaldo just before-hand to gain posession also...

I did a quick report on the Man Utd game on here as well as the 0-0 draw with Pompey.

It would appear we are in a minority of two but who cares, it will be tough this year but hopefully it will be OK, there appears to be a lot of optimism about with Jim Smith and Nick Merry but watch this space....

Good Luck

Oxford kick of their second match of the season, away to Dagenham, who got to the play-offs last season so is sure to be a hard game.

With Oxfords 2-0 win on Saturday leaves them presently third in the table, lets see where they will be tonight.

Yeah, 2 wins out of 2 - title favourites according to the BBC site and that I will agree with.

Bring on Burton Albion on Friday night!

Me too......used to live in ..Benson,Cowley, then Long Hanborough, Bampton, then Witney before I moved out here.

I used to see Jim Smith drinking with Brian Horton in Woodstock on many occassions. Jim always kept his house in Woodstock wherever he was manager.

Then I was having Sunday Lunch once in Church Handborough when all the current Oxford team turned up for a big meeting, Mark Lawrenson was the Boss then and apparantly the meeting was all about Dean Saunders impending move to Liverpool where Lawrenson said that if he went then so would he..well he did and he did..Big news at the time.

I used to wath the U's when I lived in Handboro, as I could not afford to travel to Reading that much, and I wanted my Son's to see live football , and 20 years ago Oxford were an excellent team.


It will now be many years before our next darby game (Unless its a cup match).. I really used to enjoy them, but it was only 8 years ago that Shottton was gloating after we got beat 3-0 at the Manor. All our supporters sat down in front of the team coach calling for Terry Bullivant's(Reading's manager's) head..they got it..but we went down anyway. Why on earth did Oxford ever part company with MS? He was a darn good manager if you ask me

AnywayWho knows what the next 8 years will bring.

I wish Oxford GOOD LUCK as any Man United Supporter would wish a City supporter.

Reading are a Premiership side now and Oxford United are in the Conference League. It must hurt bad, still you could be in the same division as SWINDON next year, although I doubt it,as I think they will go up) but the yellows and their Tricornered Stadium will be back where they belong in Division 4.

but Oxford enjoyed two seasons in the top flight, we have never had one..so its our turn, in 8 years we might be in the Conference Pears and United will be in the Premiership, and Tony Blair will have grown wings and be able to fly with all his piggy pinky freinds

My oh My
