More come to the party

April 3, 2007

Tonight saw another mixed bag of results as far as Oxford's play-off challenge is concerned.

Aaron Posey scored his first goal for United's reserves at Carrow Road this afternoon, as the second string did very well to hold Norwich City to a 2-2 draw. Indeed, United twice took the lead, and can consider themselves unfortunate not to pick up their second successive win, following the 1-0 win over Stevenage Borough  more ]

It’s getting closer

March 27, 2007

It's hard to imagine a better set of results for Oxford United's play-off aspirations than tonight's in the Conference, as many of their rivals lost, a few drew, and only a couple made up any real ground by winning. York City remain in third place despite losing 1-0 at home to Stevenage Borough, for whom  more ]

Dag’nam it

March 26, 2007

A very late equaliser from Danny Sloma earned Conference leaders Dagenham & Redbridge[@opponent]Dagenham and Redbridge[/@opponent] a barely deserved point from their top of the table encounter with Oxford this evening. The first half started fairly evenly, with both sides creating the odd half-chance, until after 16 minutes United conceded a goal from a corner, as  more ]
