Right. I've had a bit of a mixed reaction on here this week with a couple of my threads.
My prediction for the Sunderland game is Oxford United 1 (That new bloke) Sunderland 1 (its obvious) Att: 10001 with 1802 Sunderland fans.
This is going to be a rather boring game. But the events not related to the match are interesting me. The game will start 30 minutes late, because Nissan, who supply the coach, will change their mind about lending it to Sunderland, due to Brexit. The team will all have to thumb a lift to get here. There will be a change of ref before the match starts, because he went on telly the night before and debunked the moon landing of 1969. It was decided he is a t**t and was too embarrased to turn up. Sykes and Whyte will get into a fight, arguing about who is a true Celt. Erick Thohir will warn them he has a Viking background, so watch it.
Oxford will win the toss, and 200 of their (Sunderland) fans will leave the ground in disgust.
Oxford will be shooting towards the car park end and most of their shots will land in the car park....................near the club shop.
Maguire will score the luckiest goal ever seen at the Curse-Him Stadium. We will score the shittiest goal ever seen in a football match, but who cares?
One of the goal posts will break. A pigeon will drop dead, mid-flight and land on Eastwood's finger - breaking it. It gets worse.
Nelson will injure his coccyx after jumping the wall at the East end. No-one will know why he did it.
Their centre-half will fracture his clavicle, whist raising Maguire up, after scoring.
The score-board will explode, as will the director's box. Robinson will be strangely quiet during the game.
The ref will book 5 players from us and 6 from them. Turns out, he has an attention-seeking disorder.
Charlie Farley will be seen wearing a scarf with 'Sunderford' printed on it. He hasn't chosen us or them, yet.
A dog will run onto the pitch. The fans will sing my name when it does.
One of the hot-dog stands will run out of cooking gas, so will have to shut early.
An ambulance will drive onto the pitch, after a hoax phone call.
That just about does it for me. COYY
