Re: MATCHWATCH : Charlton Athletic (h)

If we can win this game and make it 7 from 9 against Poxford, Stevenage and Charlton that would be a great return of points!! Charlton should bring a couple of thousand as they're a pretty well supported club and it would be nice to see our fans getting behind the team in real numbers. Another 15,00...

Re: Selles In

So, rumour is that Savage had a payrise clause in his contract triggered on 15 starts, and we couldn't afford it so stopped starting him. Which would mean Craig was only brought in for Savage by Selles for contractual, not tactical reasons. And now Savage has reportedly waived his payrise to play, ...

Re: Confrimed - Abbey and Holmes going

Personally i think the window so far has been pretty shrewd business. We need to cut the cloth and get a bit of cash into the building!! Holmes and McIntyre are both super nice guys, however, nice doesn't win you games and both have been cogs in probably our worst defense in recent memory. Abbey mad...

Re: Confrimed - Abbey and Holmes going

Be a real shame with Holmes off at the end of the season. Back to being extremely inexperienced at CB except Dean - who is rightly nowhere these days. I do think Bindon and Dorsett have the potential to be a pretty epic pairing in future though. McIntyre going leaves us pretty darn light. It puts C...

Re: Summer 2023 Transfer Speculation

Real Madrid have agreed on a change with Caylan #Vickers - but the timing still seems to be open. Reading FC, which is in financial difficulties, prefers a January transfer. https://twitter.com/andreoeausm/status/1750128237550715068 (Swiss Journalist by the looks of it) Wouldn't be to upset with th...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Derby County (h)

Great win against a high flying Derby side.....big game now against Leyton Orient, hopefully a big crowd as they should bring +2000 for a Saturday game. Another home win would set us up nicely for the Oxford derby!!!! Comon Urrrrzzzzzzz.... :D

Re: “ Sell before we Dai (to someone fit and proper)“ supporters action group v2.3b sponsored by Sports Direct Tennis Ba

I do wonder if trying to reach out to the players and Selles is SBWD's next best move. They can't be forced to move; if they don't agree to leave, Dai can't asset strip. Could they even go on strike? It feels like it's pretty united: fans, players, management and staff vs Dai and Pang. I agree, i t...

Re: “ Sell before we Dai (to someone fit and proper)“ supporters action group v2.3b sponsored by Sports Direct Tennis Ba

The statement SBWD & STAR put out with the meeting minutes pretty much contradicts everything Pang is quoted to have said in the meeting....odd. So who do we believe after these latest round of statements: Pang who is clearly Dai's puppet and is never going to tell us the truth and has clearly ...

Re: Rival Watch

Someone I know who follows Carlisle says they’re making a fair few signings already following their takeover. I hope us not being able to sign anyone isn’t going to bite us badly. They have broken their transfer record signing (apparently 300k) from Harrogate Town - he replaces Luke Plange who has ...

Re: BFTG - Wigan

Yes fine game from Mukairu. He’s best performance yet. Craig is going to be a special special player for us. Everytime he plays he runs the midfield We are hitting form at a great time for us with still over half a season to play. My concern is the transfer window which is a week away! The team is ...

Re: Away followings

Good to see our numbers well in the 4 figures now, I'm sure the situation of the club might skew this, but hopefully this is a trend that we can continue after this whole shitshow is over and maybe I can go to games where there isn't 300 of us tucked away in a corner. I think some of the issue with...

Re: Away followings

Weirdly, our high away attendance this season is more likely to be maintained if we go down than if we stay up. Good luck fitting in over 1000 at Harrogate, Morecambe, Accrington and Salford. Lived in Harrogate before i moved to Canada and watched Harrogate a fair bit in their non league days. A co...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Lincoln City (a)

We played well today and on another day would have won comfortably!! I think we are seeing the results of a more settled team and formation the team prefer playing. The current back 4 look a little less likely to concede multiple goals per game, Dorsett has shored up the left side and Holmes has mor...

Pepe the Horseman Sounds like the Biscuit Tin was pretty quiet tonight then? What was the attendance?


14,300 (2,700 Oxford) pretty poor really, was expecting 16,000 however, being midweek killed that i guess and so close to Christmas plus us being shit!!
