That occasion when suddenly your non-football enjoying friends and other people around you who are normally innocent become your mortal enemies in a piss stained wash.

Rather odd we've had 7 pages on this thread of mostly posts which express a view they don't give a fuck about Poxford.

That's fucking brilliant. I'd like to think Sky will televise it.. but probably not. I'm assuming C5 haven't got a JPT highlights show? |

of course it is a game that matters. Long overdue a win. Forever in our shadow. End of.

The bragging rights are all about this one. The Bristol and Reading games really don't matter and are forgotten about.

I haven't really given a crap about Oxford, until we play them.
Can't wait for it. Just need to work out transport...

We'll probably do what we did last time we played them and just go on one of the Coaches.
The hassle of getting the train and being stuck on one of those buses that does a tour of the Oxfordshire countryside is not an option for me.

Lets be honest, the reason people aren't that 'bothered' is because we haven't beaten them in the four attempts over the last 14 years. Oxford is our biggest rival and as a collective we've got to embrace it, whatever the level and whatever the competition.
Spot on. |

Only 14 years because the fuckers were out of the league for almost half of them.

My thoughts on the matter from a post in another thread about 6 months ago. Views haven't changed. The only thing that has is another season has got underway so we've now been in the same division as them for just one season out of the last 15. The Swindon/Oxford rivalry is a shadow of what it used to be. I think it's something to do with having been in their division for only one season (2011-12) out of the last 14. In all of the other 13 seasons, we have been playing at least one division above them. Fair enough, they've beaten us each time we have played them recently...but even the 2011-12 games are become a bit of a dim & distant memory now.
The fact is that the Oxford rivalry does not mean as much these days, especially to our younger fans, as it used to. We have played them 4 times in the last 14 years; 23 times in the 14 years before that (1987-2001); and 15 times in the 14 years before that (1973-87). And 14 years before that, they didn't even exist.

What ? Constantly boasting about Division 2 and recent experiences of non-league football ? |
