FAN’S VIEW 22/23 – No.44 – SHEFFIELD WEDNESDAY AT HOME OXFORD UNITED 1 SHEFFIELD WEDNESDAY 1 Before many of our matches I have a feel for how it is going to go based on the form and style of play of each team. For this though I didn’t have a clue and even after the  [ more ]

FAN’S VIEW 22/23 – No.43 – PETERBOROUGH AWAY PETERBOROUGH UNITED 0 OXFORD UNITED 0 This was the best I’ve felt during and after an Oxford game for ages. I felt a real togetherness amongst our travelling fans – all 847 of them which I think was a decent turnout considering where we are league position  [ more ]

FAN’S VIEW 22/23 – No.42 – MORECAMBE AWAY MORECAMBE 1 OXFORD UNITED 1 This is a season almost totally devoid of joy on the pitch. Off the pitch news has been miserable too with Stratfield Brake being declared an almost certain non-starter and despite being told we would be constantly kept informed of progress regarding  [ more ]

FAN’S VIEW 22/23 – No.41 – DERBY AT HOME Where are those straws? Prior to this game logic told me we are going down so I set myself the task of finding a straw to clutch on to but that was like, well, looking for one particular piece of straw in a very large haystack.  [ more ]

FAN’S VIEW 22/23 – No.38 – CAMBRIDGE AWAY If we think we’re bad – and we certainly are bad – what does that make Cambridge? Since we beat Ipswich in the fog we’ve lost five and drawn one, scoring three and letting in 11. Cambridge last won on Boxing Day. Their previous win was two  [ more ]

FAN’S VIEW 22/23 – No.37 OXFORD UNITED 1 PLYMOUTH ARGYLE 3 I don’t intend to waste much of my time on this. I usually give a bit of thought to getting some structure but I’m not going to on this one. Why bother with structure, my team has very little. This is now one point  [ more ]

  FAN’S VIEW 22/23 – No.36 – MILTON KEYNES AWAY MK DONS 1 OXFORD UNITED 1 Much like with us there is a dearth of good boozers to meet in close to their ground. The Chequers in Watling Street in Fenny Stratford which we used last season and which some of my mates quite rated,  [ more ]

FAN’S VIEW 22/23 – No.35 – SHREWSBURY AT HOME OXFORD UNITED 0 SHREWSBURY TOWN 1 I thought our first half performance was a vast improvement on the previous three games. It gave me hope. In the second period though we regressed and by the end of the match the familiar hopelessness was once again on  [ more ]
