Re: BFTG - Fulham

Actually back from the pub - and two new found mates (Nick and Matt) - because I was stuck in Exeter for the evening. Couldn't work the return trip around trains/commitments. It was a an awesome performance all round - not often I've felt that comfortable. Yes, we soaked up a shed-load of pressure b...

Re: BFTS - Brighton (A)

Jaap - I love you. Keep going - entertain us, and results will follow. And yes, I did stand on the terraces at EP in Div 4, and it's too easy to forget how oxford that was. Forget Division 4, apparently it's too easy to forget how shit last year was. Spot on. I'd rather walk out of the door at 2:35...

Re: BFTS - Brighton (A)

Okay, I've bitten. And no, I'm not an oxford newbie, though sure somebody will say I am. I don't live close, get to see about 3 home games and 3 away per year, but don't feel 'regular' enough to hold an opinion amongst the experts on here. But watched tonight on Sky and have just bristled at some of...

Snowball - I enjoy most of your stats. But reckon I'd enjoy a pint of what you've been drinking even more!

Re: All fans coming to Portman Road on Tuesday

First things first - thanks to ITFC_Keane for coming on another team's board and behaving like a grown-up instead of some of the idiot posts you see by 'visitors' elsewhere. Good heads up - on traffic and ticket prices. Second - sat and watched Ipswich on TV with one of their fans last night. He see...

Re: Refwatch: Watford

Averages: Yellow Cards: 2.57 per game; Red Cards: 0.17 per game
(v low red card count)


Yes, but 2010/2011 running at over 3 yellows per game and 0.38 reds. Definitely gone card-happy compared to previous seasons.

And he's even older than me ...

Re: Watford Predictions (H)

Before I get a reputation for being glass half empty, I'll say a home win. If we don't, that really is the last chance of scraping towards the play-offs.

Goal down early on, turn it round 3-1. Long, Long and Hunt.

I was here ... but in the days before the fences and gates. http://www.worldstadia.com/data/images/j/a/jarm051022212332.jpg Happy memories - think you can have as much fun supporting a club in a lower tier with something to aspire to.

Re: How Many Points after 46 Games?

Mid-60s. Two points per game perfectly achievable ... IF you are on a good run. Not sure we have been at any stage all season - every time I get to the stage where I think that we should win a match, we contrive to lose. Don't mean to be negative, but nothing to suggest we are about to hit 92-point-...

Re: Norwich (A) Predictions

I'll be boring. 1-1. Fits with my thoughts on where we'll end up. Oh, and I predict some army type will want to watch the rugby on the only TV where I'll be stuck, so I won't get to watch Final score.

Re: will we make play offs

Newbie warning!!! So I'll start by telling myself to Oxford off. Now that's out of the way I'll apologise for taking so long to join - saw my first game in late-60s (I was very young - beat Torquay 4-0), was there for the 2-1 Cup defeat to Arsenal in 1970(?) and got married on the same date 24 year...
