looking forward to this evening!
Hopefully we will get a convincing win, but like any championship game, it’s going to be tough.
Upper Swans!

Tell you what, I've had a lovely afternoon in Oxford. Went to the Radiohead exhibition in the Ashmolean, bought some books, and currently eating a lovely Korean dinner. Cannot wait for us to get tonked this evening

We desperately need a win, otherwise it's squeaky bum time

Great exhibition. I particularly liked the 'This is all you get' sign by the exit.

My mindset. Let's secure championship football and assess where we are at with Ronald and Franco. Personally if we could replace with better then I would be happy the issue we have really is, if we flog Ronald and let's say we brought in a Benson, we would of ended up with a worse player. Ronald shows glimpses but we need better. Franco to some extent as well.

I had a hot girlfriend once that used to show me regular glimpses - it took me way too long to realize that i was never scoring. I dumped her and moved on

Just looked at the stats on the beeb and we havent got a hope in hell of winning,

Oxford haven't had a pen for 70 games - NAILED ON

We are currently 11th in the form table, despite the loss to Coventry. If we continue in that form for the rest of this season, we would end up one point behind where we finished last time and in the same league position - 11th. Personally I think our form will actually improve here on in.

Gutted I couldn't get tickets for tonight - second time in a row they have sold out before I got it together to buy mine. It's a fixture I normally enjoy (despite the memory of that awful cup game with Fat Franck and a petulant Shelvey).

We havent beaten the same team in the same month since '73 they haven't lost to the same team twice in a month since '66

Loved line up until I saw Fulton. Widdel for Fulton is strongest side

 

[J_B]

Fulton starts.

 

[bakajack]

Widell, Inoussa and Fulton in
Ronald, Cullen and Franco out

Not quite the team everyone wanted (Fulton is playing instead of Yalcouye) but otherwise pretty close to it

Widell is also playing
I assume you meant Yalcouye
