Should be fun next Saturday, on the P**s all afternoon, might not remember the game

 

[Marked Ox]

Arg. I've messed up. I've got membership but I never got one for my daughter. I assumed wrongly that as a member you could buy a plus one to matches like the play offs. And I cant buy her membership now.

I cant just go myself and not bring her along. Bah. Any ideas? I presume it might sell out ahead of genera release.

Know a season ticket holder?

 

[Manorlounger]

What a day! Poor Mrs L was really unwell this morning and despite all efforts couldn't make the game. Sent me on my lonesome, she is a star. She sent text messages throughout but admitted she shed tears at not being there to see for herself. She is feeling a little better now and doesn't want to miss out on a celebratory glass of fizz.
We'll still be in Topsham tomorrow morning so we'll book our tickets before heading back. I wonder if Peterborough will give us that whole end again for the reverse fixture? Would be good. (and if they can get the tickets to work properly!)
The dream is, of course, another Wembley trip but this time, to win!

 

[Yellowoptimist]

Try to be a bit more positive if we do make it!

Already booked hotel at Wembley

 

[IsleofWightYellow]

JM played an impeccable cameo when he came on. Hopefully see a bit more of him in the coming weeks.

Yeah McEachran seems bang in form. I’d like to see more of him over the next 2/3 games…

Good to know where your priorities lie!

Mark Harris' performance today was right up with the very best 'leave nothing out there' performances I've seen in 40 years following Oxford. Different eras and styles but Beano and Briggs would have been proud of that. Thanks Sparky

I’ve done exactly the same….

Harris is player of the season for me. I know he’s been a bit streaky in front of goal but he always contributes. We’d have been screwed without him.

Sorry to put a downer on things but we only finished 38 places above the A420 gene puddle. Des out!

 

[Mad Dog]

IF we get to the final, only promised and bought my boy tickets to go to the Abingdon airshow ages ago!
He's already saying he still wants to go there if we get through. I'm thinking adoption might be a way out....

Seems like the perfect time to teach him about priorities...

 

[dickwalton1964]

What a day!!!! Drained after that! Players were brilliant and so was Des - fair play to the bloke. You finish exactly where you deserve to finish after 46 games and 5th is a tremendous achievement. It’s been a bumpy road but we’ve made it. For obvious reasons, after the 5-0, Posh I think gives us the best chance of Wembley and for that to happen courtesy of a 98th minute Northampton goal - it just seemed everything was aligning for us on the day. I hope the players are enjoying a beer or two on the bus tonight before getting back to business on Monday. Staying in Devon tonight and will definitely be having a few!

Loved seeing Tiger there - made me think what a long way we have come since that first awful interview he gave - hats off to him!!

Strange season. The Manning departure was very disruptive, and clearly affected some players negatively.

The way it’s panning out, I just wonder if someone like Goodwin or McGuane will be an unlikely hero in the next couple of weeks.

 

[Eric Blair]

I’ve done exactly the same….

Just spoke to the ticket office. They are reopening memberships for people to buy

Don’t rule out Sonny Perkins

Enjoy and well said

 

[oufc1991]

First half was amazing we had control of the game second half we were professional done what we needed and got the result. Well done Des and the boys after 46 games you finish where you deserve to be.

Moving on to Peterborough that’s going to be a very difficult game they are a very good team and will probably want some revenge for that 5~0 .

Buzzing tonight was shitting myself watching the game and looking out for the scores of the other games
