Title: Oxford Fighting Administration Post by: STFC_Gazza on Tuesday, September 23, 2008, 12:27:03 Oh dear, The scum are facing administration and I guess that leads to possible demotion from the conference?

Title: Re: Oxford Fighting Administration Post by: janaage on Tuesday, September 23, 2008, 13:03:55 Think this has already been dismissed in an article on the Beeb. They only owe money to the directors of the company that owe them. We know Nick Merry's done some silly things in the past but even he's not that stupid to go into admin. meaning he would be out of pocket.
They may have issues going forward though if results/attendances/revenue don't improve. Title: Re: Oxford Fighting Administration Post by: DMR on Tuesday, September 23, 2008, 13:04:46 Rivalaray, well, it ain't exactly partisan now is it?
Title: Re: Oxford Fighting Administration Post by: Summerof69 on Tuesday, September 23, 2008, 14:18:11 They're not experiencing the problems that we were facing 6 years ago, but now in the Conference, who don't like clubs going into admin.
Title: Re: Oxford Fighting Administration Post by: Arriba on Tuesday, September 23, 2008, 14:41:30 i hear cape or fyffes might put in a bid as they have been loyal customers over the years.
Title: Re: Oxford Fighting Administration Post by: janaage on Tuesday, September 23, 2008, 14:46:33 As much as I hate them I don't want to see the Bananamen go out of business, would be hilarious to see them in conference south though!!!
Title: Re: Oxford Fighting Administration Post by: Arnold.J.Rimmer on Tuesday, September 23, 2008, 16:52:11 they're on setanta tonight. like a motorway car crash, i won't be able to resist having a look.
Title: Re: Oxford Fighting Administration Post by: michael on Tuesday, September 23, 2008, 16:54:22 Oxford v Administration, in the 15ft high steel cage. No holds barred.
For the first and only time, I will be cheering on Oxford. Title: Re: Oxford Fighting Administration Post by: Iffy's Onion Bhaji on Tuesday, September 23, 2008, 17:01:04 They really are in trouble.
Title: Re: Oxford Fighting Administration Post by: Rich Pullen on Tuesday, September 23, 2008, 18:33:32 I still think they'd be lapping it up if this was us.
I'm not bothered either way. The one time we stooped to their level they couldn't hack it and got relegated themselves :) Title: Re: Oxford Fighting Administration Post by: Simon Pieman on Tuesday, September 23, 2008, 19:18:10 Yeah they were lapping it up when it looked like we were going under.
I don't want them to go out of business but I fancy going on their forum and let them know we'll give them a fiver as we can afford to now. Title: Re: Oxford Fighting Administration Post by: donkey on Tuesday, September 23, 2008, 20:38:38 Maybe Fitton could buy them and they could be our feeder club...
Title: Re: Oxford Fighting Administration Post by: axs on Tuesday, September 23, 2008, 20:40:16 Maybe Fitton could buy them and they could be our feeder club... or our training ground?Title: Re: Oxford Fighting Administration Post by: oxford_fan on Tuesday, September 23, 2008, 20:48:24 Oh dear, The scum are facing administration and I guess that leads to possible demotion from the conference? http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/o/oxford_utd/7631116.stmhttp://www.oxfordmail.co.uk/news/headlines/3694611.United_face_new_crisis/ Title: Re: Oxford Fighting Administration Post by: axs on Tuesday, September 23, 2008, 20:50:35 shock, a club losing money. you're in good company.
Title: Re: Oxford Fighting Administration Post by: Power to people on Monday, September 29, 2008, 15:32:51 I see part of the game on Setana the other week...the bit I found funny was they have the manager there explaing the tactics he is playing and how his players are expected to play....typical for a mickey mouse tv company - I had to laugh.
