No problem. So as a big fan of football, what was your favourite era of the game and any favourite players?

And how many flights of steps do you go up to reach the SSU (taking each straight run as a flight)?

your first post to me you said you had been reading Nextdoor and Facebook and that the “pictures being painted” suggested there was strong opposition to the stadium relocation.
That wording is exactly why a few of us think you might be a bit of a ringer in this debate.
You didn’t reference the planning documents, the committee debate, the consultation responses, or the actual decision notice. Instead you referenced the narrative being pushed on social media. Anyone who has followed this issue closely knows that the loudest messaging on those platforms has largely come from a small number of very active campaign groups.
You also repeated a number of familiar talking points almost word for word. The idea that there is widespread opposition, the references to FoSB and Land Behind the Moors, and the suggestion the council is somehow at loggerheads with residents. Those are the same themes that have been pushed repeatedly by the organised opposition.
Then rather than challenge anything I had actually written, you finished by suggesting I “have issues” with those groups. That reads less like someone looking for a genuine discussion and more like someone trying to frame the person they’re replying to.
So when someone arrives repeating the exact same social media talking points and framing the conversation in that way, it is not unreasonable for people to question whether they are just another voice from the same campaign ecosystem.

Billy, you are reading to much into my post. The fact is I read the FB post on Kidlington Town Community which was started by a Mr Paul Batt. I starting to think you might be Bill Bedding. I suggest you read through the whole thread and see how easy it is to assume there are infighting.
You’re wondering if I am a supporter of FOSB or TLBTM, well you can take time to ponder this question. You and others ask what team do I support, who’s my favourite player, what is my most memorable game. Right?

Keep on wondering Billy, enjoy the experience.

COYY.
 
If FOSB raise the 50 grand to get a judicial review, what would happen exactly? Seems pretty likely they'll reach their goal unfortunately

Thank you. Oxford United certainly looks a family friendly club and as I said, we have family in the area and a few of them follow Oxford. I have never really been attached to any particular club, but that could change.

I massively recommend it. This is a club with history, heart and soul. The fans are amazing and welcoming as is the club. As a relative outsider it’s something I’m still not fully used to but appreciate hugely. People on here - and I would certainly put @Billyox at the top of the list - are friendly community minded people. You’ll love it. You can’t go too far wrong where you move to to be honest. It’s a great city and county. You should definitely take it a match as soon as possible and I recommend South StandLower as your first port of call.

Steve as I have said that I have family in the area. My favourite era the 80s, favourite players loved Aldridge, Hamilton and Cassidy. Recently the beast and James Constable (beano) My dad used to take me to a few games at the old Manor Ground and occasionally the Kassam when we first moved there. I then moved away and lost interest I’m afraid to say. Now me and my partner are back and I have been catching up with what’s been going.

I mean it is really just a load of s**t. They keep mentioning this ancient woodland that has already been proven not to exist. Not sure how this is allowed/legal tbh

If you wait long enough, every woodland eventually becomes ancient.

If FOSB can string this out for another 399 years, we could be in trouble.

It is allowed because anyone can ask for a JR on any planning decision, but asking for a JR is not the same as a judge granted one to proceed.

Oh I wasn’t talking about Oxford, I meant football in general as you said you were just a big football fan in general who didn’t follow any specific team.
Me personally, I loved the Italian football in the 90’s and was a big fan of Batistuta growing up. The Premiership in the 90’s was littered with great flair players and good old workman type players too.

I dont need to wonder i saw right through you the minute you walked in
I think everyone would agree on here im the biggest loudmouth who took the fight to fosb and kidlington council
Firstly you mentioned next-door a small fry social media platform where most of the battles took place there has been next to nothing on next-door since August
You then said I had issues with certain groups you come to that conclusion from from where exactly?

Your next mistake you said 80s was your favourite era naming john Aldridge Billy Hamilton easy done when googling oxford united but then you named Nigel Cassidy a player who played for us from 1970 to 74 so if you was 5 in lets say in 1970 your daddy was still taking you to football in 2001 at the age of 36
So now at ripe old age of 61 you have moved back and your kids are in to skateboarding are the not a little bit to old for that

I wonder no more
