Re: New Owners - Redwood Watch

Well, Missy is absolutely adorable isn't she?

It already brings a feeling that it's is a family not a corporation that is entrusted with the future of our wonderful club.

And she runs a bookshop.

leon This would be great news.


Agreed. It would be difficult to over state just how important he could be next season.

Re: Ex Royals

Crusader Royal Mark Bowen appointed DOF at FGR.
Wonder what the odds on that would be ?


Will he be a success there? I wouldn't bet against it. Although he probably shouldn't.

Re: Rumour- Chem Campbell permanent

If Hunt thinks he's got a role in his system, I'm very happy to accept his judgement. The position he plays is more determined by the manager than the player himself. If he told to stay up high and wide that's what he'll do. From my viewpoint, he has patches of ten to fifteen minutes of being brilli...

SJM is a true legend. Got photo of him with my lad when he was young - he was thrilled to meet Sir John, and still treasures the picture.

Re: Ex Royals

Gotta feel for Valencia. Years of catastrophic mis-management, they're finally turning the corner, then they appoint the walking disaster that is Ron Gourlay. Maybe they should get Kia Joorabchian in as a football consultant and Paul Ince as manager and full out for oblivion.

Re: Stadium Matchday Upgrade

Hope 5G reception improves. So frustrating. 5G would be an investment decision by the network providers, not the club. And frankly, the cost benefit case would never pay off to install infrastructure to cope with 10,000 simultaneous network connections 30 times per year for a few hours. Wi-fi upgra...

In continuation of the theme from the 2023 /2024 season, and to broaden the club's appeal in the region, it features in silhouette the combined skylines of Oxford and Swindon.

Re: Stadium Matchday Upgrade

There’s a lot of PR speak there ! They are going to make the PA audible seems to be the gist of it…. PA system is fine isn’t it? I've never had a problem understanding it, and I wouldn’t say I have great hearing. The bloke using it on the other hand could use some work. Think we do a fairly good jo...

Can someone explain how movers week works? Say I renewed my ST in row A but actually want to sit higher up where there's no seats.

Re: Rob Couhig - New Interview

rabidbee Don't worry guys, it's probably not long until the BBC axes Radio Berks. Then we can all look forward to weekly commentary from the Oxford matches on Thames Valley FM.


This. Like the Canadian singer and loyal Royal Joni Mitchell sang, you don't know what you've got 'till it's gone.

Re: Rob Couhig - New Interview

Would it be fair to say that Dellor’s fall-out with Brendan Rodgers is the reason he is somewhat less confrontational than we might hope? I can’t imagine that didn’t have some consequences. In that case it felt vey much like it, at the very least, helped Rodgers out of the door, even if he was goin...

Like everyone else, supposed about Akande. I thought he would have made the grade. Senga looked pretty good to me the few times I saw him. Surprised (and pleased ) Yiadom has been offered an extension. Should Pereira choose to pursue his career elsewhere we're going to have quite a goalkeeping probl...

Re: OFFISHAL CONFRIMATION of the CONFIMRED

In terms of match day experience, I'd say the three biggest things are: Fix the PA - get it loud, get play lists of crowd favourites that appeal (as far as possible) to young and old, build the atmosphere. I Won't Back Down by tom Petty might actually work, a referenced in the BBC interview. The bar...

The BBC interview is just fantastic. The guy comes across so well: he has a sense of humour, he has a clear vision for the club, he understands loyalty, community, and the fans.

Re: CONFRIMATION of the CONFIMRED

It'd be a huge task, but I would love to see a complete timeline of events in the Dai ownership. For those of us who weren't alive or old enough to understand events of the Thames Valley Royals era, this has been the period of greatest uncertainty in the club's collective memory. While a lot of it ...
