Happy Birthday to Mark Harris who is 25 today!

Hopefully sparky can celebrate his birthday tonight after scoring the winning goal... By getting pissed in bowlplex ( or whatever it's called today)


It's going to be a tough game tonight if we start like we did on Tuesday the game could be over by half time. I will be happy with a point be over the moon with all 3 tho
 
I have just awoken from a dream where CamBran and I played as a team in an intense game of football in my (now dead) Grandparents hallway and kitchen using a 2p piece as a football. Our opposition was another CamBran but playing on his own with no supporting player. My CamBran and I won 8-1 having gone a goal behind early on.

Can anyone explain this and interpret what it means for tonight’s match? Is it a portent of things to come?

After much consideration, my theory is that I need to eat less cheese.

With so many experts in the interpretation of body language on this forum, I feel confident that you won’t wait long for a psychologist with an interest in dream analysis or perhaps even one from the field of oneirology to ensure all aspects of the field are covered satisfactorily.

This is Oxford, after all.
 
Is it a "must win" yet? :)

Hard fought score draw will do, home win will cause "limbs" as the kids say.

I am almost certain that it reflects badly on Des
 
Doesn't feel like a matchday- yet!
That may be because I'm still on Christmas family visits today and tomorrow but after lunch today will get into game day mode😀
Visited the Derby supporting relatives on Wednesday as thought may not be welcome tomorrow after we beat them tonight🤣
 
Derby are going well now and have lots of strength in depth. We are stuttering along with a number of injured squad players and no goalscorer in the squad.

Would take a point, definitely.

1-1
 
Bit fearful of this one, they will be bang up for it after we beat them at their place, we seem a bit lacklustre at the moment. Really hope we don’t try the wingers hugging the touch lines tactic tonight as they will be out of sight by halftime if we do.

We can get something if we are sensible and pick a team/tactics that reflects the fact it’s a tough game, tonight is a chance for Buckingham to show he has the nous for the job.
 
A tough battle would love a draw ,fearing a 2-0 defeat. But second half against an inform Cambridge was excellent ,so one never knows .
 
I’ve been mostly consumed with getting 2 pairs of Bluetooth phones paired with my Mac so that the boy and I can listen quietly.
We’re at the in-laws, ko is 3:45 am. My wife and I have been sleeping in a tent on the verandah, so she’s being kicked out to sleep elsewhere so that we can watch the game quietly at stupid o’clock.
It better not be a damp squib or a drubbing.
Come on Harris, make this the game where you convert a couple.

How I imagine you and your son when reading your anecdotes...

No Murphy again by the sound of it, which would confirm my acceptance of a draw:

Oxford United 1 - Derby County 1.
 
Obviously want a win, but can only see us drawing at best due to injuries etc. But actually feel we’ll lose.
