Home Match Day Thread ++OUFC V Scunthorpe 30/3/18 Match Thread++

[Oldham]

The new beginning. Under King Robbo I predict a resounding 2-0 to the mighty Yellows.
Come on Oxford!!

 

[RATC]

Hoping we move through the thirds of the pitch quicker and we see more purpose and effort to get shots away. Robinson said he wants more balls in the box and to start taking more risks.

Hopefully we see this slowly kick in tomorrow. We have players back today from international duty so more options of the bench.

Eastwood
Kane Dickie Mousinho Ricardinho
Ledson
Brannagan Rothwell
Henry
Napa Obika

2-0 Oxford. We're due a clean sheet and Scunthorpe have had defensive issues aswell.
Napa,Rothwell.

 

[Basham Wonderland]

I was punished for my optimism last game and we got embarrassed.

So I'm going for Scunthorpe to break their recent duck in form and go 0-4 Scunny.

My first home game of the season.

 

[Berliner]

Do what we did in the middle third vs Pompey and we'll be OK tomorrow...2-1 to the mighty YELLOWS!

1-0, Henry pen, COYY

Scoring a penalty and Mehmeti starting, don't want much do you?

At least he doesn’t have Mowatt down to score the pen…

 

[TailsWeWin]

All much too optimistic! We won’t prevent Scunny scoring. I’ll take 1-1.

 

[West Oxon U’s]

 

[West Oxon U’s]

How good was this save ?

 

[RATC]

How good was this save ?

Good but not quite Eastwood. I'm expecting a high standard of goalkeeping on show tomorrow!

 

[stokeu]

sorry but 0-1 ..prove me wrong welcome

 

[dabigfella]

Let's see. Scunthorpe on a horrendous run. Game on telly. Definite 3-0


To Scunthorpe!!!!!!!




God do I wish I was wrong!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Reynolds97]

Working unfortunately, any ideas if be able to stream the game online somewhere?

2- 1 OX.

 

[Oldham]

I’m playing them on my own!

 

[sonofivan]

I am watching this on the telly with Shrewsbury / Man U supporting in laws. I just hope we give a good account of ourselves.

My prediction: a hard fought 1-1 draw. We will go ahead first half and they will equalise early second half to set up a cagey, sweaty palmed final 40 mins. Both goals will be scored after corners.

 

[holdsteady]

0-0 bore draw, a silly early bank holiday kick off live in sky is punished with the most boring game ever, no shots, no players missing penalties then getting themselves sent off, no bookings and no reds. Valuable point though.

 

[The Mighty Aldo]

0 0

We never win on Sky. A draw is the best we can hope for.
MK winning puts more pressure on us

 

[Leysboy]

I don’t know why, but I actually think we will win this 3-1 I think the home form will get better as the season comes to a close. Which will give us the points we needs to get past 50+

 

[Anthomic]

Working unfortunately, any ideas if be able to stream the game online somewhere?

2- 1 OX.

Now TV, will cost you about eight quid for a day pass.

 

[unification]

Defeat and Scunthorpe delighted to be back in form, I’m afraid.

A draw or better would be readily accepted.

 

[Morris Oxford]

A carnival atmosphere at the breeze block as the mighty yellows trounce the Iron 4-1.

Napa scores, claims an assist and ‘wins’ a penalty.

Half a dozen Oxford fans arrive just before 3pm to find the match has just finished.

 

[Johnf]

Looking forward to the game today my first match for a while due to knee op.
There were some good signs last week and with KR having more time with the players now I am optimistic about the result .
2-1 to the u’s
Napa and Dickie
COYY

 

[Concretebob]

1-0 to someone - not sure who though.

The R word gets mentioned a lot by Sky.

 

[Paul Cannell]

The omens are good.

I found an empty fanta bottle at 90 degrees to a coke bottle exactly half-way (I had a gamekeeper pace it out) between St Lawrence's and St Mary's. These gleaned I met Haggard Bridget on the isthmus at Jason's never-built verandah; after the necessary drink we arranged them in the requisite form, with a half-circle of hart's teeth, and made dedication to Mithra.

Pretty much a nailed on 3-1 to the yellows, then unless Tinybob and his Legion of Gullible Presumption find it and disturb the symbol. Should that happen all the Guinness in the Blackbird will suddenly find itself inside my agent, who will remain characteristically unperturbed.

Sounds like all the Guinness in the Blackbird is already inside you ?

 

[Paul Cannell]

Not yet

 

[Paul P]

Everything points in the opposite direction but hope and hangover tell me 3-1 with Napa, Henry and Rothwell scoring. Clearly I need to drink less.

 

[mooro]

We will score early...... then be hanging on for the rest of the game, before conceeding late on (twice?)
