Away Match Day Thread 08/05/2024: L1 Play-Off SF 2nd Leg - Peterborough vs OUFC

[Carpy]

Hope we win of course, but their outright arrogance about thinking they'll roll us over makes you want it even more

Thought I saw Gary Briggs with a diving header clearance tonight

Mmm. That was one thing the ref did get wrong tbf.

 

[Hackney Jack]

BRILLIANT.

Respect to Des, the team and the fans.

What a night !!!!

 

[Emilio]

Did rad ox actually call you, rather than the other way round?

For international ones you message them and they call you back.

 

[Steve Gilbert]

And what support, wow. We've been to more than a few away games but that was something else. What a noise! Non-stop, just everyone bouncing, rather upset the evening for Posh!

Oh yes, walking back over the bridge into town, quite a few very disgruntled Posh. Plod were keeping a very watchful brief and other than a sideways look and a snort of derision at Mrs L, no problem. (Mrs L would have taken his head off if he'd gone any further!)

Football fans going over a bridge…where have I heard that before?

• Booked my flight
• Mrs Emilio isn't happy because I'm missing her birthday.
• My bank account isn't happy because it's missing £274.
• I'm buzzing my tits off!

It's why we do it, days like the 18th.

Well done lads and lasses , expert defensive display and I could feel the tension through the telly .
Really looking forwars to the BOL-OX final . your manager said you will take 35-40k , is that realistic ?

We have taken 30,000 every time we have been to Wembley so can’t see any reason we won’t hit that again.

 

[Llangennech]

Hope to see you over here next season. Come on you Yellows! #OUFC

Yes. We have always taken plenty over 30k other times we've been.

Abso-f*cking-lutely

Darren Ferguson has that weekend free, see if he will cover.

Hes got an appointment at the opticians that day.

 

[Wandering Yellow]

Does anyone know roughly how much profit OUFC will make from a trip to Wembley?

I don't think it'll be too far wrong, we did take 33K when we got promoted back from non-league after all. We may not have the largest weekly support but being the only pro-team in the county we have a large latent support. And it's less than an hour away for most of us.

Loving the suggested final name.

 

[Norwayyellow]

Bloody hell this will cost me.

Heia Oxford Yes

 

[Leysboy]

Can't believe Real Madrid is the top story on the BBC sports site, who the hell are they!!

We will be playing them soon, when they fly in to Kidlington airport to play at the new stadium.

That will give Ian Middleton something to moan about “the sound of jet engines”

 

[BWFC1]

Very impressive, not sure we will sell that many.

If they make a percentage on pints purchased in our half of the ground, I'm sure it will be a fair few bob

Kotaro has already booked his flight from Japan. His wife doesn't know yet!

Just seen this on the Derby forum - hadn't realised it, but nice thought:

I'm rooting for Oxford in the playoffs to make it a Jim Smith 1,2,3

He’s clearly copying my post.

What was the blatant handball that Ferguson is complaining about? Don't remember it

Acting like his dad
