Carabao Cup - Oxford United (A) 25/09 1945hrs

Was at the div 2 game in 85 lost 3 nowt, pissed down, horrible game. Seem to remember a bunch of perimeter fencing getting torn down as being the highlight.

We did the same last year Bradford away and Wolves at home the same date in Trophy and Cup

The Bradford tickets were more expensive too. No decent gate for Bradford in a game that is easy to get over to.

Oxford is more interesting than the Chumps League draw - but still a ball ache to get to - used to be possible in about 2.30hrs, no chance these days, will need to head off around 2.30pm to be sure.

Just need to get tickets: could probably leave home at 7:30pm and be there in time. Safe to say this is the draw I wanted.

Ah. Another fix. ;-)

Yes mate.

We're away to another Wigan type scenario and those rag bastards get a bye at home.

Only 12,500 capacity at their place but bigger than Bournemouth ... Hope they give us a few

Think they may add a temporary stand as only three sides are built.

should hopefully be a tv game

Don't be stupid. Rags nailed on.

I remember 89 promotion season 2 nil down at half time and a few leaving to go to the pub came back won 4-2 seem to remember Brightwell scoring 2?

Yes, Simmo scoring for them too - and then Colin Greenhall an own goal and we sang his name (that's why I always remember it!)

half time munchies I'd just paid £7.50 for a slice of pizza when **** banged in the winner in the 2011 semi

If it's any consolation I was having a pee when Yaya scored against Sunderland at Wembley. Would have gone at HT but the toilets in our end, like at most away games, were unbearable. My seat was right behind the goal too.

I was having a piss when he scored away at Newcastle in 2012

Rags and dippers at home shock horror

Whilst we’re in it we want them in it for as long as possible, I’d argue they both need to win it more than us so may have to play slighter stronger sides.
