Very excited. Was bit worried as demand exceeded supply. We did ask for more tickets but not to be.
I posted on this forum earlier in the season to get feedback on Charlie and Don (still revered), and had a good crack but think I started to irritate after a while so backed off.
I declared Oxford as my second team and @Essexyellows challenged that, and although taking umbrage at the time, he was right. I like the town (or is it a city), like going to Oxford games with @Bodminyellow, like Oxford to win and think the fans are great, but don't really give a s**t if they lose not really a fan, am I?
Being taken over by Oxford fans strengthened my association with Oxford and now my brainy daughter has been offered a place at your university next season, so if you see lass wearing an FTM t-shirt and munching a Gregg's pasty - that'll be her! Speaking of FTM, a curious element of this season has been the presence of our neighbours up the road at Sunderland away games, proudly revealing their gravy stained black and white tops in the home ends (see here). Weird and hilarious. If this happens on Saturday and one is near you, please take the Micky. There are very easy to wind up. Mention Rafa's negative tactics and they go into frenzied tirade about Mike Ashley. Great fun.
Down to business. Few of us stopping off in London on Friday night, so will be in Oxford nice and early, but a bit bleary, but a hearty breakfast and a gallon of your finest ales will sort that out. We will no doubt be 'barra jobs' come the evening.
No idea where the new ground is and how to get there but hoping @Bodminyellow sorts out a decent route to the ground from the station. Any recommendations for breakfast and a decent pint appreciated.
My God, this has been a tough season. I'm exhausted so no idea how the players feel. Imho Oxford in the first half were stikll the best we had seen ate the SOL until Luton rocked up with their 4000 fans. They were an excellent team although we could have won but for a dodgy ref - isn't it always the way? Wimbledon are the worst I have seen, but still a struggle to beat them. Nice dirty win, that one.
Oxford seem unpredictable, so probably very frustrating. Genuinely hopy you stay up, but won't be upset if you don't - what sort of fan am I @Essexyellows ?
