You can't leave out David Langan!!!

 

[Mad Dog]

You can't leave out David Langan!!!

Langan was great, but Robbo was immense!

 

[ToTheManorBorn]

Burton in goal - great ‘shot-stopper’ and the shorts!!! If you know you know.....

Langan, Shotten, Elliot, Baldock (playing out of position I know)

Houghton, Beauchamp, Lundstrum (someone’s gotta sit in front of the back four), Hebbard

Roofe, Aldridge

 

[Jonny G]

Judge
Langan Elliott Briggs Slatter
Beauchamp Hebberd Houghton Simpson
Aldridge Hamilton

Subs - Hardwick, Bardsley, Shotton, L Phillips, Saunders

 

[Mitcham Exile]

Craddock and Smalley, hands down!

 

[DSM]

That was a partnership made in heaven (or Manor from Heaven) Fantastic memories, and a truly lethal strike force, what great days and nights in London Rd just waiting for either of them to score “We’re go na score in a minute” and we generally did. ?

With Peter RB, or Brock or Chicken pinging the balls in from the wings

 

[Oufc28]

Sappleton and N'toya

 

[Whingit]

N'toya was class and I won't have anybody say otherwise.

 

[Jason N]

Elliott and Gilchrist were a decent partnership.

Elliott,. Man mountain, won everything in the air and great distribution.

Gilchrist, lightening fast and was able to cover for Elliott when forwards had got passed.

 

[oxfordfan1]

who ive personally witnessed,

Whitehead,
Baldock, Elliott, Nelson, Robinson,
Beauchamp, Maguire, Lundstum, Roofe,
Constable, Moody

 

[Sarge]

Those of a certain age might cite the Arthur Turner side(s) that took just 7 years/seasons to go from non league starting from Headington United- Oxford United, to going up to old Leauge division 2 (The Championship now) and into the 70s.... including beating the then mighty Blackburn Rovers in FA Cup , and losing to PNE ( to one if not 2 disputed goals) on the way

best team from that era would be (for me)..

Barron
Beavon
Quartermain
Roberts
Kyle
Atkinson ( R)
Knight
Jones
Atkinson (G)
Calder
Harrington

No Substitutes till the 66/67 season ... applying the 7 sub rule of today, the bench would consist of :- Houghton, Shuker, Clarke (C), Sloan, Skeen, Evanson , Fearnley (gk)

 

[Oufc28]

Best team since I've been alive.

Whitehead
Robinson

Honourable mentions
Hackett
Powell

Leven
Duberry
Turley

Whyte
Ledson

 

[headingtonoldboy]

Rob Duffy for his penalties.

 

[Peterdev]

Aldridge and Roofe would’ve been incredible with Dean Saunders and Billy Hamilton on the bench

 

[Oxfordpete]

Has to be the perfect partnership that actually played together in real life, Billy Hamilton and John Aldridge.

I was so lucky to be able to see this partnership in action.

Aldo actually said last year when interviewed that of all his striking partners Hamilton was his number one

 

[Oxfordpete]

You can't leave out David Langan!!!

And you can’t leave out Ray Houghton

 

[Oufcad30]

What about Moody and Rush?

 

[Yellow River]

What would the likes of Elliot, Joey, Houghton, Aldridge, Saunders be worth in today’s crazy transfer market?
