I vote for a massive 'Banner wankers'. The yellow piss stains would feel a bit silly, anything else is just going to make them put more effort in next time (and let's be honest, they do things better than us when it comes to displays.)
It's pretty rare for English football banners to be funny, or dare i say witty. Buck the trend jaybox.

I think banner wankers applies equally to both sides.

Bear in mind they have the backing of their club helping them do everything whereas we have to work very hard to get the club to allow us to do anything (STFC didn't even allow us to throw streamers at the Rovers game). They've also been doing it a lot longer than we have. But your opinion will change come February. Our tifo in the Town End with own theirs. |

Part of being an Oxford fan is an unhealthy obsession with STFC. I guess it came about through a sense of inferiority, Headington arriving late on the football scene, finally giving us a game 86 years after we started. Then proceeding to mostly get stuffed in the subsequent occasional encounters just reinforced that sense of inadequacy. We've seen in recent years how that obsession works as a motivation, like the last time we played them in the league...for them beating us twice made a memorable season even though they failed again to reach the FL play offs for a first time, whereas we went on to win the league reasonably comfortably......I don't think many of our fans would have traded positions. |

They're alright Oxford fans. We used to play friendlies against them every year and they're a good bunch. But yeah... it definitely means a lot more to them than it does us. I guess it's been easier for us as we've (generally) had the better of them for the best part of 25+ years. Certainly in terms of league positions.

Beating them would be good for a bit of peace and quiet.

Don't get yours hopes up, I'm yet to see us beat them and I've been to every game we have played them since and including the FA Cup fixture that was live on BBC, I'm going again Saturday so that's the end of that. |

Would somebody please kidnap Quagmire and lock him away in a basement for the weekend?
Thanks.

It can't happen again, Shirley. Is Shirley a new nickname for Williams? If we lose both games and finish above them, I don't give a fuck. Equally if we win both games and finish below them, I won't be lauding over our derby victories. |

The last time we were in the same division as Oxford we lost all 3 games we played against them.
That season panned out quite nicely.
