Oxford embark on the Wembley trail again tomorrow, having had one route to the “Home of English Football” (TM) curtailed on Tuesday. Hayes & Yeading United are the visitors in the first round of the FA Trophy, a tournament that many supporters feel is a total and utter waste of 90 minutes plus stoppage time  [ more ]

Barrow 3 Oxford United 1 Oxford bowed out of the FA Cup with barely a whimper this evening, losing to a committed Barrow side in front of their partisan supporters, who deserved their prize of a trip to Sunderland's Stadium of Light. In truth United never looked like troubling Barrow, and as soon as ex-U  [ more ]

Oxford face Barrow this evening in the FA Cup second round replay, with the prize being a lucrative visit to Sunderland and the possibility of drawing a big club in the fourth round. The sides drew 1-1 at the United Stadium ten days ago, with a controversial penalty for Barrow enabling them to equalise Jamie  [ more ]

Oxford United 4 Ebbsfleet United 2 Two pieces of sublime skill from wee Elfie Potter, making just his sixth start of the season, ensured that Oxford cruised to victory against Ebbsfleet United, conquerors of Stevenage Borough last Tuesday. James Constable also got in on the act, scoring a brace to take his season's total to  [ more ]

Oxford United welcome Ebbsfleet United to the United Stadium tomorrow in a game that could prove to be a lot harder than at first thought. Ebbsfleet's last two games saw them beat play-off contenders Mansfield Town and Stevenage Borough; results that both helped Oxford enormously, but the Fleet are unlikely to be in the mood  [ more ]

Crawley Town 1 Oxford United 2 What a way to end a game! The last 15 minutes of last night's match is the reason why we go to games, as Oxford came back from the dead to beat Crawley with a late, late goal from James Constable, who had earlier missed a penalty. Crawley would,  [ more ]

Oxford United visit Crawley Town this evening knowing that if they slip up they could relinquish the top spot in the Conference. With Stevenage Borough facing a relatively easy trip to Ebbsfleet United tonight, Oxford will need to take at least a point from the Gatwick boys if they don't want to hand Stevenage a  [ more ]

In the draw for the third round of the FA Cup, Oxford United were handed a trip to the Stadium of Light to play Sunderland, should the Us manage to overcome Barrow in their second-round replay on Tuesday week. The Rokerites, as was, are now without United's favourite son Dean Whitehead, but will nevertheless prove  [ more ]

Oxford United 1 Barrow 1 A controversial penalty decision by the referee was the main talking point from today's FA Cup second-round game at the United Stadium, and arguably robbed Oxford of a deserved victory. United had taken a ninth-minute lead through a deflected Jamie Cook shot and were cruising when the official intervened three  [ more ]

Tomorrow, for the second time in eight days Barrow visit Oxford, this time for the second round of the FA Cup, hoping to avenge their 1-0 Conference defeat last Saturday. Unlike last weekend, when the Cumbrians made the 250-odd mile trip south on the day, this weekend they're staying overnight at a hotel near Oxford  [ more ]
