Guest writer Ian Davies discusses one of the most successful ever Oxford United sides Which (or who?)  was the greatest ever OUFC team? Very hard not to say the 1984/85 promotion team? The Milk Cup winners? And Guinness Soccer Sixes? of course.  Those options for me, are just too obvious. I have long laboured under  [ more ]

Hellboy arrived on earth in East Bromwich. We are hoping that he didn’t venture westwards, although given Oxford’s record at the Hawthorns, that might be a forlorn hope. In 13 games at this forlorn Birmingham suburb, United have won just once, in October 1997, thanks to goals from United legends Darren Purse and Nicky Banger.  [ more ]

It’s never easy to write a report after your team has been on the wrong side of a bad defeat, and to be honest I almost didn’t bother with this one. After all, no one wants to be reminded of it and, while writing it might be cathartic, reading it will only be depressing. Nonetheless,  [ more ]

Patto scores to give Oxford the win over Stoke Before I begin this preview, I would like to apologise for any offence I caused with my ill-chosen words in the Millwall report. It wasn’t my intention to offend anyone and I can see that I shouldn’t have said what I did. I have been suitably  [ more ]

Well, as I often say to my masseuse, I love a happy ending and yesterday’s draw with Millwall provided exactly that. If you’re going to draw a game, it’s always better to be the team that equalises, and when that equaliser comes in the fifth minute of stoppage time, even better. It was a bit  [ more ]

Tyler Goodrham scores United’s equaliser against Millwall last season (Photo: Steve Daniels) United return to home soil tomorrow to face two games in quick succession against teams that occupy the play-off places (well at least until we play them haha). First up, on Saturday, it’s Gary Rowett’s former club Millwall. That’s followed on Tuesday night  [ more ]

AFC Bournemouth Women 2 Oxford United Women 1 Captain Noami Bedeau’s shot hits the bar (Photo: Liam Faulkner) Oxford United Women went down to Bournemouth last night but lost 2-1 to the Cherries, who went top of the National League Southern section as a result, thanks to Watford being held to a draw by Real  [ more ]

FAN’S VIEW  2025/26 – SHEFFIELD WEDNESDAY AWAY Wednesday have long been in financial turmoil under the ownership of Dejphon Chansiri. The day before our visit to Hillsborough he finally relinquished control of the club and placed them into administration. With that came a 12-point deduction putting them fifteen behind us before kick-off.   As soon  [ more ]

United make the trip to troubled Sheffield Wednesday tomorrow looking for a change in fortunes following their rather desperate performance and defeat at Wrexham on Wednesday. However shit Oxford were at the Racecourse Ground, the club’s on-field troubles fade into insignificance compared to those of the home team. Owned by Dejphon Chansiri since January 2015,  [ more ]

FAN’S VIEW  2025/26 – WREXHAM AWAY This season I think our performances can be very broadly placed into one of three categories. Cat C (Poor/Very poor. Relegation on the cards). Cat B (Just about okay. Nothing to shout about but might just about keep us up). Cat A (Good/Very good. This is more like it.  [ more ]
