  • Must be the only ground in the country designed so you can watch the game from the traffic jam outside.

  • We're in the red and white quarters

    Thank goodness for that. I couldn’t tell one team from another at Wembley.

    In fairness, Oxford played in white at Wembley ?

    Shorts clash today

    Did they? Well then fair enough. I don’t understand why light blue shorts are beyond O’Neils.

    They made them for the previous home kit, but I guess we took the decision to go without for the current one. The red and white is iconic anyway!

    I'm liking the return to two up front - but we're slightly screwed if we lose a CB.

    Surely bring JMac on and move Grimmer inside?

    ?‍♂️

    What am I missing?

  • A larger screen?

    Anyone else's stream horrifically pixelated?

    A club can register 3 kits for the season with the league. Only if none of the registered kits provide suitable differentiation can a club mix shirts and shorts from their registered kits. O’Neills making light shorts available is not an option if sticking to the league rules.

    That was for myself haha

  • Out to the car now. 98FM

  • Got away with one there!

    All good here, but stuck with Oxford commentary, even though I’ve selected Away ?

  • No ball boys, classic Oxford tactics.

    VPN! The simple bit of tech which rather makes a mockery of the 3pm blackout.

  • Are Oxford fans singing ‘how was the Championship?’ It was great.

  • How does that simple bit of tech work in the hands of a simple subscriber?

  • Thought that was pretty good tbh. Could have had one or two. Bit of switching positions, bit of decent play. Noise in the away end. Not bad.

  • Decent first half once we settled down. Hamlin had some very nice touches. Amazing clearing header by their defender to stop one certain goal and so nearly another JJ special - can’t believe no-one touched it in.

    Oxford not without threat but we’ve dealt with them well in the last half hour. Referee has allowed tensions to rise. Not sure what the apparently indignant Oxford players had to be so angry about at half time unless they want the right to stab our players as well as jumping into them at every header.

  • Robinson has got them far too fired up and we've exploited that. Scowen doing what he does best and they're not too keen on it...

  • Hanlon not Hamlin.

  • Very impressed with Hanlan too - initial impressions are that he'll make for a natural Muskwe successor.

    That’s a good comparison. Hasn’t got the same pace but touch has been really nice.

  • Another aye from me on Hanlan. Another good buy!
