League Cup QF Draw - Oxford United (A)

[lasereyes]

Dippers moaning about a fixture pile up, it’s easy, withdraw from the meaningless World Club Championships on the grounds it’s in Qatar, a Country that obviously doesn’t meet the Dippers moral and ethical standards.

They may lose a chunk of wonga but refusing to go would be the right thing to do, all we hear about is City Oil money, human rights, etc. Well Qatar has those plus a member of the Royal Family who is also the Owner/Chairman of PSG and is under investigation for bribery and corruption in more than one sport. Perfect fit for the Dippers and their Sponsors.

It's easier silverware for them. In the Carabou, they will have to get past us, which they wont relish

I remember going to Oxford in the 80's.

Remember us getting clobbered in a second division promotion battle in the mid 80s. Think we both went up that year.

We have a huge chance at this now.

I think villa will knock Liverpool out.

A semi vs Villa for us and then Leicester in the final.

Assuming we can beat oxford of course.

cup is definitely ours to retain again. Don't fear anyone left in the competition at all.

I'm usually not a believer in cup draw conspiracy theories but this draw must have been fixed.
Colchester always getting easy draws.

what after Chelsea away?

I was at the 69 final and it didn't piss down, maybe you were pissed

Even though I come from Wythenshawe, being pissed at the age of 8 wasn't deemed acceptable.
Cleary memory plays some strange tricks.

Ha, quality mate, please tell me you are joking though?

Yes, just joking - I guess in the era of Trump, it's not as obvious as it should be!

Oxford fans on the Oxford forum keep going on about an incident with our team coach/driver last season-what's that about?

"At least this time their coach driver wont be able to play billy big bollox"

Presumably the coach driver just had issues with where to park the coach or something and it kicked off a bit.

Their ground is basically in a car park surrounded by a few shops so not luxury spots for a big vehicle, i seemed to remember our coach just wedged in down the side of the stadium.
