They’re all pretty much must-win now.

​

I imagine this will be one of the hardest ever minutes of silence to experience. I'm far away from Oxford, but I'll be there in spirit. If I was there in body, I'm not sure if I would be able to cope.

 

[Orkney Islands Yellow]

Must win really, as they pretty much all are now. There is hope, however!

Please bring something to leave at the Ox statue.

 

[TailsWeWin]

Absolutely vital to get 3 points. For the league table, but more importantly for morale.

 

[OUFCwaffle]

Another playoff final, us against the world mentality needed. Fans were terrific against West Brom, same again please!

 

[Bitter]

Help needed. Due to an eye operation I am unable to get to the next two home games. Can someone tell me what Sky channel I can watch the two matches on and how I go about accessing? We have ‘Sky Go’ on an iPad so I managed to see the PNE match, which was on Sky HD, however I see no mention of the Blackburn match under Sky Go. Apologies if this is in the wrong thread.

let's hope we put on the performance at home of the season ,Win is what we want but this championship is tough and Blackburn have alot of class players .I think Leicester will get of trouble so we need to drag Blackburn,Portsmouth and Charlton back into the equation. We know we have the spirit let's hope that can get us another fantastic result.

 

[holdsteady]

Other teams are only relevant if we get the required points total, so we need to concentrate on that first and foremost, then nearer the end we can overthink about others. Let’s get 3 points tonight and go from there.

 

[The Voice Of Reason]

Tonight is again go for the jugular
Would like to see a Woo cameo with at least 30 to go

 

[Mr Perfect]

Another absolute 'must win' game, we really can't afford anything else at this stage in the season against a team who are marginally above us in the table.

I expect it's on sky+ other than the main game all the others are streaming and not accessible from sky go.

The match will be on Sky Sports+ so download the Sky Sports App, it’s a different one to Sky Go.
The games will appear later under the football tab at the bottom.

After Leicester's win last night, what was already an important match, has now become a must win. However, if we do win tonight, that will drag Pompey right back into this. Personally, I think Leicester will be okay. Rowett will steady the ship and their squad has more than enough quality to stay up. Pompey on the other hand, are stinking the place out right now. They have an awful run in, injuries to key players and the fans are turning on the manager - again. This is a big opportunity to apply further pressure on them ahead of the weekend..

I think we will go for the same 11, but with Spencer coming in at RB.

Jin Woo to come off the bench and make it 2-0.

UTFO!

 

[Yellowecky]

Let’s keep the momentum going. We’ve got the ‘two results in a row’ monkey off our backs. Now we can concentrate on maintaining that performance level and earning three more points. I’m getting fussy now, I want a clean sheet:

Oxford United 2 - Blackburn Rovers 0.

 

[Isle of Wight Yellow]

I’m getting fussy now, I want a clean sheet

Personally I’d more than happily take a 6-5 win!

Does anyone know why the ticket office is closed on a Wednesday when its a match day?
I want to upgrade my son's ticket to an adult, but having to do it when I get to the ground is a proper faff. I can't believe there are many Championship clubs where the ticket office isn't open on a match day Wednesday.

 

[Swinny]

Barring another points deduction, Leicester always seemed the most likely to escape - but a win tonight and we remain level on points with them and bring a few other teams into the conversation as well.

Keep a clean sheet and I think we win it because we seem to have found a few goals from somewhere (finally!)...go big time!

Apparently, those decades of experience had some bearing on the decision for the TO to close on Wednesdays ( even on Matchdays I guess)

 

[Sarge]

Feeling optimistic for tonights game, the sun being out at the moment is a factor , albeit will be chilly this evening ( and even colder in the breeze block!) , a cagey encounter ending in a 3-1 home win, two late goals to clinch all 3points

 

[Ox4Eva]

It's all about momentum, not performance sometimes..

No matter what till then end of the season, let's keep backing our lads!

 

[Sarge]

I was there ... and at the following FA cup round V PNE

 

[Malc]

Me too. Gosh, we are getting old!

I know the Manor had obviously changed quite a bit by the time I was going in the mid/late 90s - but I just can't imagine over 21k packed in there!

There was scaffolding 'terracing' on the beech road ( which was where I watched the game from with my Dad)- H&S requirements were almost non existant , fire limits also, back in the 60s

 

[OUFC1978]

Reading the blackburn forum and they are very worried about there chances for tonight and the rest of the season! Think we need to have a good go at them tonight. Predicting another 3-1.

 

[The Mighty Aldo]

We need at least 4 points from the next two games, ideally 6
If we can win tonight it will put real pressure on those just above us and we will be almost at a point where it’s in our own hands rather than waiting for other teams to fail

 

[RgYellows]

I’m going to be noisy tonight lads make sure you join me
