    Oxford anyone?

    Who's going? Been a few years since I attended a match in person, mainly due to being overseas, looking forward to it. I think my last game was at Old Trafford and I think a 1-1 draw.

    Tickets were sold out in 5 minutes flat my mate and our allocation was only around 1000.

    Not going, waiting for key hole on knee

    Last time I saw us play there was back in the early 80s in the fa cup, we got beat.
    Took a lad from work and picked up a lad thumbing on the M6 near Warrington, he was lucky. I thowt this mon looks strange hanging around on the hard shoulder, caught site of his Burnley scarf, he spotted ours hanging out of the window and the rest is history. Cheeky barstwerd mind. He said he only had enough money for the his admission so I bought him is beer dropped him off at the bottom of Colne Road.
    Not seen him for a few years but we always laughed about it when I saw him, I have a feeling he might be dead now

    Would have gone if I could have got a ticket,it's only a small ground.

    Cardiff away 1st March - I hope for better luck but I will be in there one way or another.

    Thumbing lifts while stood on the hard shoulder is not a recipe for longevity ballcock.

    1400 I think I read somewhere. I guess this is a new ground for us, hence the quick sell-out?

    Best wishes with the surgery mate, at least only keyhole.

    I went away once to the old Oxford manor ground and they stuffed us 5-0 I think. At least I saw Warwick Castle on the way down.

    I walked the ramparts and towers, a step too far, my legs seized up the following day and I was still under 40 then. Never seen so many steps.
