Was speaking to an electrician at my work the other day, doesn’t really follow OUFC but said to me “you’ve got High Wycombe next weekend?” And began a story of getting a hospitality ticket through a client.

Loved he kept calling them High Wycombe, I had to laugh

He was referring to their inflated position in the pyramid, which they deserve credit for. Massive overachievement for such a tiny non-league club. When the bubble bursts and they return to their rightful position in the Southern Premier League, they shall once again be known as just "Wycombe"

If we don’t see Goodwin doing a handstand while Tyler Goodrham swings from the crossbar in front of our fans on Saturday, I’ll be disappointed.

I hope he doesn't bloody do a handstand, I don't want any more injuries

Cumming
Long Moore Brown Leigh
Matete Brannagan
Goodrham Ruben Murphy
Harris​

Subs:
Eastwood, Bennett, Thorniley, McGuane, Bruery, Dale, Goodwin

I think we will have too much for Wycombe and come out on top, 3-1 to the yellows.
Perfect game for players like Matete, Brannagan and Ruben who love a battle.

How the hell is Goodrham going to reach the crossbar? He'll need a lift from someone.

Really? Ruben vanishes when there is a battle.

 

[Foley]

We're gonna get thrashed unless we tighten up in midfield. Really sick of being second best to that lot.

Mmm. Thrashed?
We have played Blackpool away Pompey at home and held our own. Peterborough are the only team to thrash us.
Are Wycombe suddenly a top top team?

 

[Lost Marbles]

Pretty embarrassing this hasn't sold out when we usually have a pop at Wycombe for not giving us more tickets.. Online sales obviously haven't helped, but we have had home games in between.

I feel more like it shows that we couldn't care less about Wycombe as a rival. This thread was only started after our game on Tuesday, Reading and Sw**don would have been (and were) discussed weeks ahead.

our allocation will sell out ... the question is will they sell out their car park?

Wigan were walking through at will on Tuesday. Wycombe will know how to play us and will be looking forward to it, I'm sure. Hopefully they will have their own vulnerabilities, as Wigan did.

Nothing to do with rivalry its a local game 6th in the league and we haven't sold out yet. Reading games were dull and boring with terrible atmospheres would put that in the same bracket as Wycombe tbh.

I do hope so, it makes for such an exciting atmosphere!!

@ECYellow you need to have words, your role as Attendance Enforcement Officer is being challenged

Does anyone know how easy it is to get from the train station to the ground?

It's about 3 miles if you are walking it.

There better be fireworks !

Sorry, meant does anyone know what transport looks are like. Debating whether to drive like I would normally or get train from Bicester.

 

[swolley]

On Saturday matchdays, shuttles will depart from the rail station at 12.40pm, 1.30pm and 2.20pm, each stopping at the bus station five minutes later. It will then drop supporters off at Hillbottom Road at 12.57pm, 1.47pm and 2.37pm.

Return journeys will leave Adams Park at 5.25pm, 6.05pm and 6.45pm, giving fans the chance to socialise at the ground before returning to town.

There's the WW1 football special bus from the station to the ground. Leaves the railway station at 12.40, 1.30 and 2.20pm. Also goes back after the game.

AI has a solution ready to go…



Not sure who that new sponsor is exactly but nice to see a bit of yellow on the seats for a change.
