Home Match Day Thread 18/5/2021 Play Off L1 OUFC v Blackpool

Cannot.flipping.wait!
Odd mixture of calm, yet nervous (if you know what I mean). Not getting huge amounts done today, that is for sure, but I am incredibly happy and grateful that we have a team to support, a team that have performed when the chips were down, who have clearly got a very strong bond between them and have given us hope and an opportunity to dare to dream.

COYYs!

Remember the golden rule. In the play offs, whether home or away, YOU DO NOT LOSE THE FIRST GAME

Lose and the problem is damned near insurmountable.
Win is absolutely great.
Draw and you are still in it.

Lets hope we win..

Disagree . Exeter turned over a 2-0 defecit at half time in our second leg with them. The tie is won in the second leg not the first.

Cor, is that a thing as well? So much to try when I eventually am able to get back to blighty.

I think there is another flavour around as a trial, cherry!

 

[Marston Road yellow]

I’m excited and confident. In no way am I suggesting that this will be easy, but this is our year, our time and whatever happens tonight, we are going up this year as play off champions.

COY

Important news like this should really have it's own thread. Apparently there were Pineapple Jaffa Cakes last year, which just sounds odd to me.

With tasting notes? Recommendations for accompanying such specialities? - A splendid idea sir, I recommend this to the house.

But how many chances did we miss in that first leg and the first half of the second ? . Funny thing was Exeter went to the final and lost anyways .

Think that was Steve Bashams last time as an Oxford player

Cherry ones sound a bit played out to be honest, plus we have them as a standard flavour in Germany (raspberry too).
Passion fruit and pineapple can get in my belly immediately mind.

I'm quite partial to the pineapple ones that our local Asda do.

 

[brassmonkey]

I will predict a 1-1 draw.

Duffy should have won it in extra time, missed a sitter when one on one with the keeper

Yes I do remember like it was yesterday. We also let York beat us the game before the play offs so we didn't have to face them in the play off semi. They went on to lose to morecambe in the semis.

What's he doing with his hand?

 

[Orkney Islands Yellow]

Pissing down again, wonder what state the pitch will be in? Could be a leveller that works in our favour?
