40,000 + Milk Cup final 1986. Life was so simple then. Just 10 hours of queuing down the London Road

What a night, great atmosphere and hopefully proof that football is alive in Oxfordshire and a new stadium is needed. Good decision by Des to pick Stevens and Bennett over Long & Leigh. Its only half time, it will be tough at Peterborough. Whatever happens I admit I wasn't sure about Des, he has...

3224 v Blackpool 2 seats apart. Those were s**t days

Portsmouth did us a favour in 2020- 2021 losing at home to Accrington 0-1;) Big positive for me, massive progress on 12 months ago. Whatever happens I shall be renewing my season ticket. (hopefully for Championship football )

You make some good points. I think it is also down the quality of the managers. Ipswich: Kieran Mckenna Plymouth: Stephen Schumacher Portsmouth; John Mousinho Derby; Paul Warne I know the point will be made about Mousinho's lack of experience to me a born leader and I hope he goes on to be a...

If my calculations are correct thats 45% of all league one games to be shown live. They presumably won't clash with the Premier League coverage so there could be some outrageous kick off times and days when games are played. Attendances will be hit . Its just pathetic 😒 🙄

I agree he is in great form. He is 29 years old and will want a 3 year deal. If he doesn't get what he wants at Oxford I'm sure other clubs will take him on with the terms he wants. Lets hope he hasn't called the snake to discuss loyalty

Too much time on my hands. Here is the league table since Des Buckingham took over. As everyone knows a mid table performance. Impressed with Reading's form lets hope they can beat Lincoln on Saturday. Lincoln replaced their manger on the 13th November 3 days before Des was appointed 2023/24...

I think his contact is up in June. There is a one year option. Not much point loaning him out again next season unless you offer say a new 3 year contract. Is he worth that?

I think you will find Fleetwood is at home

The manager when I went to my first Oxford game in 1971. I had great respect for Gerry as a manager. RIP. Time to change my user name

Some strong characters on the board, came over well. Not sure about the funding of the stadium, to vague for me?? Defining time for the club. If for some reason the stadium does not go ahead then the plan B answers seems very weak. They may have lost 15 million over the last 3 years but it seems...

https://www.otib.co.uk/topic/224514-manning-interview/ All going well :ROFLMAO:

I do get the financial debate. Probably around £400,000 net per year, very tempting. With 2 wins in 11 Championship matches in 2024 together with Stephen Lansdownes reputation for firing I doubt he has long left at the club. Sadly there are quite a few people who have lost their jobs because of...
