Thought Cooper might feature tonight. Good to see that no one is tempting fate by predicting game called off.

3-1 win for the U21s - 2 for Cooper, 1 for Osei

Starting XI: Plumley, Lofthouse, Hanson (Gardner), Jones, Elechi, Cooper, Chambers-Parillon, Sole, Stevens, Osei (Smith), Asongyani

Hanson was at centre-back prior to going off injured on 28mins.

He missed out on training yesterday due to having to be tested so decision was made for him to not be included.

Should I or should I not waste £10 on us huffing and puffing all night but failing to blow the door down?

Great support there!

Comfortable win. Feel free to bookmark.

Comfortable win. Feel free to bookmark.

It could well be. It could also be a disappointing 2-0 loss with some awful defending...literally anything possible!

Eastwood
Long Moore Atkinson Ruffels
Sykes Gorrin Forde
Henry Taylor Agyei

2-1, Taylor + Sykes. COYY

 

[Scotchegg]

Karl Robinson to become Mike Bassett, England Manager by reciting poems on Rad Ox before declaring that we'll play Four Three f*****g Three!!!

Everything will fall into place with a surprisingly easy 3 nil win with goals from Taylor, Henry and a 40 yard screamer from Long.

The nation will rise as one to declare the rebirth of Oxford United and Sarge will celebrate by buying one of those new fangled mobile walkie talkie telephones and sending naked WhatsApp videos to Karl ahead of the Swindon game!!!

Bloody hell! How many times is Hanson going to get injured. ?

No Winnall? Cooper played 90 and now on bench?

update: Winnall got hamstring issue (hopefully just tight) so Cooper comes onto the bench in his place

Be interesting to see McGuane on the left. There is definitely a player in there but he needs a big game. I wouldn't read too much into Agyei being left out, maybe saved for Saturday with so many games coming up.

No Long in the starting line up just hope Clare has cover when he goes forward so it’s 3 5 3 tonight

I hope he comes good, when he was signed a few built him up so was looking forward to seeing him on action nitro date nothing to write home about. So I hope he does it tonight

That’s what Gorrin does well he covers those areas when they get forward .

MK Dons have the highest possession average in Europe. Hit them on the break tonight don’t panic.

 

[Essexyellows]

Can`t they just kick off at 6.30 or something? Get bored waiting.....................

You would hope that would suit us.

Prediction from a friend. Have a feeling he may be bang on!

"2-1. We concede first. Eastwood error. Forum goes into meltdown. Not good enough. Then Taylor and Hall both score."
