Kidderminster Fans 12 (twelve) Raging Fever 1 Raging Fever were well and truly humbled by an obviously superior Harriers team at Wilden Village Cricket Club. Having lost the corresponding fixture 9-0 last season, the Oxford fans were happy to see the scoreline goalless midway through the first half. Indeed, Fever looked very comfortable during the [ more ]

Raging Feeble
January 23, 2005No kidding
January 22, 2005United remain unbeaten away under Ramon Diaz following today’s 3-1 win at Kidderminster, with a performance that proved that the Yeovil game last weekend was no fluke. After weathering some early Kiddy pressure, during which Chris Tardif had to make a couple of his trademark excellent saves, Oxford went on to dominate the remainder of [ more ]
Kiddy Kiddy bang-bang!
January 21, 2005Oxford travel to Aggborough tomorrow, hoping to be able to avenge their defeat by Kidderminster last month. Oxford lost 2-0 at home to Kiddy, who were then bottom of the table, but have been unbeaten since that game, and it will be a very different looking United side that faces the Harriers. Horacio Rodrigues faces [ more ]
Come in , Cominelli
January 20, 2005Left-midfielder Lucas Cominelli has signed for Oxford until the end of the season. The 28 year-old Argentine has recently been playing with Malaysian club Pehang, and previously he was on Newcastle United’s books for a season, but failed to make their first team. Cominelli had a trial with Carlisle after his unsuccessful Toon spell, and [ more ]
Rocking the KasStad
January 15, 2005United gave the clearest sign yet that they’ve turned things around and are moving forwards, as they beat league leaders Yeovil 2-1 this afternoon, to end the Glovers’ run of nine successive victories. It wasn’t just the result, but the manner in which it was achieved which was most impressive, with a combination of some [ more ]
Top of the flops
January 13, 2005The leaders of the basement division visit the KasStad on Saturday, with Oxford hoping that there’ll be no repeat of their 6-1 thrashing at Huish Park by Yeovil. There shouldn’t be, as United’s new management team seem to have tightened up the defence, but you can never tell in football (and, more especially, with United). [ more ]
Corbo, Limey
January 12, 2005Uruguayan defender Mateo Corbo has now signed a professional contract with Oxford until the end of the season, following a brief trial period. Corbo has played for Oviedo, River Plate (not that one, a Uruguay version) and, most exotic of all, Barnsley. He holds a joint Uruguayan/Italian passport, so he isn’t subject to any bizarre [ more ]
Thanks from Marcus Seldon
January 9, 2005Dear Rage On Please could you pass on my thanks to the following: 1. Unknown Oxford fan who handed in my plastic card wallet at the Bury game on 3rd January. It wasn’t until I got back to my car after the match, that I realised that it had somehow come out of my back [ more ]
Brooks’ side close
January 8, 2005A second goal in two games from Jamie Brooks earned United a well-deserved point at Darlington this windy afternoon, and they could have had three if they’d managed to convert one of several decent chances. At the end, though, Oxford were thankful for some last-ditch defending to escape with the draw. Adolfo Gregorio gave the [ more ]
Quakers in our boots
January 7, 2005United make the long trip to Darlington tomorrow (actually the team went up today, but that’s beside the point) for a tricky looking fixture against an in-form team (well, they’ve won their last two games). Oxford have hit a small run of form themselves (unbeaten in two – wow!), especially away from home (won one [ more ]
