Home Match Day Thread 8/12/2020 Papa John's Trophy OUFC v Forest Green Rovers

Going to miss tonight's game. Try to keep up to date with "mijn handi" as the Germans say.

The Dutch speaking Germans?

You could even have Sykes playing down the right, and Hall sitting in the middle behind Agyei. And/or they might mix it up during the game.

FGR seem to have made four changes from their team at the weekend. So they're closer to full strength than we are.

Still should win, and I hope we do. With this being the only cup competition left, it's good for this XI to get a proper run out and a couple more of those later in the season would do nicely......

Obita will be rested as he hasn't played so much for quite some time and won't be risked. While great to see GOD possibly come on I'd like to see the older youth given minutes as they are close, or should be , to pushing for the first team.

Will he?

I would take us finishing mid-table in the league, winning this comp at Wembley and the yellow army being allowed to support their team in large numbers because the vaccine had been proven to work.

So COYY!

Oxford fans clapping the players taking the knee. That might upset a certain someone on here...

 

[Sarge]

Decent fk that

Did we not sell all the available tickets?

No idea who the commentary team are but they thought we were OX city..

What was the quota? Doesn't look as "packed" as Saturday (North and East stands anyway). Could be wrong though. I think it was 1,008 at the weekend

 

[Sarge]

Close from Shopido that was

 

[Berliner]

Decent start!

 

[bert]

Unlucky Shodipo, good move
