I fully expect Oxford to win comfortably.
Me too, unfortunately. It would be a hoot if they screwed up but I fear they will breeze it and the Pox fans will spend the whole summer having wet dreams about taking six points off us next season.

When was the last time they finished a season above us?

Cheers, Reg. The best thing about that season was probably the kits! I wore the away one at the San Siro and got more than a few double takes from the Inter fans.

Having seen so many seasons, the memories do tend to consist of a few games or players etc.  That season we started very well, Chris Hay was on fire (stubble burning still allowed back then)

OK we got stuffed 6-0 at Maine Road, but we may have briefly topped the league, and then had a game v MBoro at the CG in Nov, who were also up there, 15,000+ at the CG, I doubt we've had a bigger league crowd since.

We lost and it's been more or less downhill since...

I'll guess there's a game on Sky, that kicks off then, so the rest of us have to fall in line.

Sad to hear another young footballer, this time Cameroon international Patrick Ekeng suffered a heart attack and died on the pitch whilst playing for Dinamo Bucharest.

Personally think its a good thing, but then again its another matter that's open to personal interpretation by the referee!

On your latter point, you're quite right.

"I didn't stop, I stuttered!"

Imagine losing a shoot-out in that manner.
