No place to hide?

[Oldman159]

Been thinking about next Saturday and our opposition on the day.

I note their scoring and result record is not the best of late. Should be an interesting game. ?

Anyone care to predict the score?

 

[RATC]

Couple of things make me feel as this could be a banana skin. They had a similar run of form when they thumped us 3-0 and we haven't won 3 games on the trot at home for a very long time.

That being said if we play like we did yesterday but be less honest and more clinical we should win comfortably.

By less honest i mean go down when you have the chance to, we see plenty of teams do it to us and they get good opportunities from it.

Prediction is a 2-0 Win with Mowatt shining again. a bit early to predict because there could be news that is released that changes our team.

It's destined for us to lose on Saturday. It's written in the stars

 

[OxfordBoy]

If we don't win i'll be fuming, despise Bury and want them gone so bad

 

[West Oxon U’s]

Lucketti sacked apparently - he did not walk.

Ryan Lowe is incharge for the rest of the season. He was the player who made that horrendous tackle on Johnson last season.

 

[Paul Cannell]

12 and a half hours since they scored in the league

 

[Sarge]

12 and a half hours since they scored in the league

which, combined with sacking their manager, and our frailties defending set pieces and shots from distance, the potential is there for a high scoring encounter this Saturday

 

[Colin B]

Oh s**t.

Why couldn't they wait until after Saturday? With our track record in these situations, expect Bury to get their first win for ages on Saturday, as their players give everything and new manager bounce takes effect.

 

[HeyMcAleny]

This has just about every classic ingredient for a horrible, frustrating game and a "surprise" away win.

I'll take a draw now.

 

[yellowbow]

Nah we'll be fine, as long as we start on the front foot and get the first goal they will crumble.

Ah b****r, we're f#@£ed....

 

[The Deadman]

Has all the hallmarks of a classic OUFC snatching defeat from the jaws of victory written all over it. Maguire will come off the bench to inspire Bury to a "surprise" victory.

Jack gone....?

Well played sir!

The big question is who's going the start the match day thread?

Well my mini run of successful match day threads came to a disappointing end on Saturday.

Time for someone else to step up.

 

[MJB]

A different club entirely, but I see Southend have sacked the Tango Man.

 

[Oldman159]

Are you suggesting the Orange chap is coming to Oxford as our next manager......?

 

[OUFCwaffle]

Reckon we should start a league table. Standard point system and whoever is top of the league gets to start the next one!
EDIT: just realised how this doesn't even work since who goes first?

Well you could use the existing threads to date and build up the current table from there. I assume 3 points for a win, 1 for a draw? And 5 for a dog on the pitch.

Good. Phil Brown is a Grade A arsewhole.

Him and Alan Pardew are two of a kind, and both so up themselves.

Edit: I had to spell arsewhole like that to get past the swear filter!

I agree but he was doing a great job of making Southend rubbish.

Very true, but we would probably still find a way to lose to them if we played them tomorrow!
