Reserve reverse

January 5, 2005

Ramon Diaz and Giuliana Iacoppi were both in attendance for this game, which saw a United side with a blend of youth and experience take to the field in a 4-4-2, with Paul Wanless partnering Angus Mackay at centre-half and Rob Wolleaston and Mark E’Beyer in the middle of the park. The scene was very  more ]

Fever buried

January 4, 2005

Forever Bury 6 Raging Fever 3 Raging Fever made the long trip up North to find that the already impressive Bury outfit has got even younger and more organised since our last meeting, and a spirited, battling performance from the Oxford fans could not prevent another hatful of goals from being conceded on a muddy  more ]

Spunky United keep clean sheet

January 3, 2005

Oxford kept their first clean sheet since the end of October as they held Bury to a goalless draw at Gigg Lane this afternoon. This also maintained their unbeaten away record since Ramon Diaz took charge, with three draws on the road. Oxford were under the cosh for most of this match, and had no  more ]

United’s next Gigg

January 2, 2005

Oxford complete their festive period of games tomorrow with a visit to Bury, where they won 4-0 last season. Bury are just one place above Oxford, level on points but with a superior goal difference. The Shakers haven’t won since the end of November, losing their last two games without scoring a goal. Oxford will  more ]

Happy New Year!

January 1, 2005

United have a 100 percent record in 2005, thanks to one of their most resilient performances since moving to the KasStad, against local neighbours Wycombe Wanderers, wearing their new year comedy kit. The opening goal came midway through the first half when Tommy Mooney set up Jamie Brooks to score the first goal since he  more ]

Wycombe come

December 31, 2004

The first match of 2005 sees Wycombe Wanderers travel 25 miles to the KasStad. United will be hoping to put Tuesday’s defeat by Kidderminster well and truly behind them, and to this end Ramon Diaz and Horacio Rodrigues will undoubtedly make several changes to the losing line-up. Tommy Mooney is back from suspension and will  more ]

Fever grief

December 30, 2004

Raging Fever 2 Kidderminster Fans 5 Raging Fever put up a brave display, but were ultimately well beaten by a superior outfit from Kidderminster. The first half was a well-contested affair, with the home team defending desperately in the initial stages, before settling down and passing the ball around nicely for a while. However, just  more ]

Kidding ourselves

December 28, 2004

You can’t make a silk purse from a pig’s ear, and United’s defenders certainly made a pig’s ear of this fixture. Oxford lost 2-0 to the team that was bottom of the league, and both Kidderminster’s goals were a result of appalling defending. After opening brightly and creating most of the first half chances, Leo  more ]

Kiddies around

December 27, 2004

Tomorrow sees the visit of the league’s worst club, as 92nd placed Kidderminster Harriers grace the KasStad with their presence. United will be determined to beat the Harriers, and continue their unbeaten run under Ramon Diaz, and indeed their 100 percent home record. Not to mention avoiding the humiliation of losing to the club at  more ]

Goal Rush

December 26, 2004

A high-scoring, open and exciting game at Nene Park encapsulated everything that is both right and wrong with Oxford at the moment. On the plus side, Oxford looked excellent going forwards, although were perhaps a bit poor with their finishing, while on the debit side the defending remains abysmal. The first decent move of the  more ]
