Matches Oxford v West Brom extended highlights

[SteMerritt]

Decent clip on YouTube to while away half an hour, extended highlights of Oxford v WBA, Manor Ground under lights. Great atmosphere and Oxford boxing WBA in at the LRT end

Brilliant watch.
A young Mike Dean refereeing. He had those weird reactions even back then. Have a look at what he does after our third goal.
We had some bloody good players in that team.

Went to that and took my Baggies supporting mate with me, he didn't enjoy the result!

The famous "no-look yellow card" at the end as well. Old habits die hard I guess.

We absolutely hammered them and Denis that night.

The interview with Smith at the end was hilarious, "We wouldn't have conceded the first or third goal out there if I was playing"

(although he was a bloody decent player in his day to be fair...)

Damn I miss those evenings at the manor. We were always up for the games under the flood lights. Love seeing Martin “the crab” Gray on the pitch.

Hasn’t he got the record for the most broken bones of a footballer?

Yeah, heard something like that... Probably from him though, like the "Next England Manager" thing.

 

[Cass63]

No I think I read it in a football records thing .

 

[Cass63]

Who needs Shakespeare when you’ve got a football records book.

 

[Malc]

I never saw that team play. Bloody brilliant.

 

[tonto]

Cracking team. How different football was then lots of strong tackles and challenges but no rolling around or surrounding the ref. Mazy run and shot by MM,always thought Smith was underrated and had forgotten all about Phil Whelan!

10:34 oooh teletubby

also interesting to hear Simon Marsh was playing England u21 at the time. Now days all such talent gets vacuumed up by epl teams and Thats inconceivable

He also takes credit for the Oxford win strangely

Some of our football that night was brilliant. If it wasn't for the Albion keeper would have easily 6/7. That was my first game under lights as a young lad.

 

[Oufc28]

Just read online that the Albion keeper who played so well that night Alan Miller passed away yesterday. RIP.

Paul Powell from that team played for England u21s as well iirc.

Both Marsh and Powell were involved in the Toulon tournament the previous season (I think)
