Obviously Oxford United has been a special team for me from day dot, but mannings influence seems to have made it a special employer too.

Josh in for cam Smyth suspended I think that's why he's signed a short term deal.

I doubt Gorrin would be signed on the basis of needing a player for one game.

Why not if short term.

Bit of an expensive sub-think we won't know who is off their sick bed till 2 but if players haven't bern seen presume it's to keep them from spreading said virus.

Because ‘short term’ means a few months, not a week.

Yes, just seeing if anybody was asleep.

Great reception for Gorrin as he was announced and when he was warming up.

Can't really see any reason to complain about ARG's signing.
It's not costing us anything more than three months' wages, we can only sign free agents anyway until January 1st, and we've got two incredibly busy periods of games either side of the November international window so some additional depth will be helpful. Sure he'll play in the Pizza Trophy at the very least to give Cam and MM a rest.

But I think today showed that another central midfielder with some attacking intent should be one of our targets in January. Cam is our only CM currently that offers any sort of goal threat and we missed him.

Who said anything about a week?

Are we the only club in England to have had two players called Rodrigues at the same time? Especially as they're not related, nor even the same nationality.

No we are not - Rodrigues and Rodriguez.

I'm going to claim I was Anglicising them!
