    Home Match Day Thread 23/01/2024 L1: OUFC vs Barnsley

    I'd say we're in the top 6 due to our first 15-odd games, not the subsequent games under Des. Our current league position is misleading. We're no longer playing like a top 6 side and are on a downward trajectory, I think that's clear to see. Once we've got a couple more players in, and the...

    Home Match Day Thread 23/01/2024 L1: OUFC vs Barnsley

    I think Barnsley had a clear game plan to cut out the short goal kick in to Moore and force Cumming to play out to Brown, I think it's too easy to say Des is the cheap option. Are the owners doing things on the cheap when they're splashing out £400k on a new striker? I think they genuinely...

    Ex Player James Beadle

    No talk about our history. You are Chris Wilder and I claim my £5. Don't want to talk about Beadle, don't click on a Beadle thread.

    Ex Player Sonny Perkins

    Des is protecting our relationship with Leeds, and other higher league clubs, for future loans. They wouldn't take too kindly to one of their youngsters being publicly shamed, regardless of whether it was justified

    Ex Player James Beadle

    Beadle will be a massive loss if recalled early and Eastwood - great servant and one of the best keepers in my time following Oxford, after Whitehead and Gerrard (if you can count a loanee) - sadly isn't a L1 promotion chasing keeper anymore. If Brighton do recall Beadle it won't be because a...

    Ex-Staff Liam Manning

    If Manning keeps winning games, chairmen will bend over backwards to sign him. If he starts loosing games, he'll get sacked. None of which is different to any other manager. No chairman will treat him any different just because he walked out on us after a few months

    Current Player #17 James Henry

    Like many I wasn't initially impressed with Henry and that was amplified by the shushing of the home fans in the dark days under Pep - can't remember who we were playing but it was a poor team and we went on to lose! - but he really turned it round and went on to be a really classy and important...

    The club won't come out and publically rip in to him and damage relationships with Leeds and other potential loaning clubs

    Swindon at home in early 2000s at the Manor. Matt Murphy and a young Dean Whitehead sent off in a 2-0 defeat

    Thought the Mills red was harsh. He won the ball initially and then caught the player with the scissor. But it was clumsy rather than malicious or dangerous. Typical wingers challenge. It won't be overturned though as he did jump in and catch the man so wil be deemed as out of control and...

    Away Match Day Thread 5/8/23 L1: Cambridge United v OUFC

    I was hoping we would see an upgrade on McGuane but MM could have done everything McEachran did today and last 90 minutes. Really worrying if JM can't last 90 mins and we have to resort to playing MM for 30 mins every game as he's another who floaters to deceive

    Ex Player Alex Rodriguez Gorrin

    The problem is he will never get match fit if he's only playing 15 mins at the end of the odd game, and then you're at risk of further injuries as was the case last season. It's tough coming back from one ACL, let alone two, and he's had very little football in the last 2 years. I like Alex but...
