Oxford United decide against fourth stand for Swindon game
     


Oxford United will not have a fourth stand in place for the visit of Swindon Town in March because it is not financially viable.

That headline is actually embarrassing for them - 'Oxford decide against having a proper football ground for the visit of their local rivals'

"It's something that hasn't happened before and we all like to create history in some way.

Ummm yes it has. Up and down the country every week alot of clubs play infront of 4 stands.

Jesus!

Couldn't we just have the car park end as a temporary terrace. They could get some matresses and old sofas from the locality and use them to create the slope effect.

On the upside, it gives the opportunity for more of their fans to see them geta right royal stuffing and realise that, despite their delusions of being a good side, they are actually just slightly above average for the division.

Jumped up cunts I fucking hate every man, woman and child of them

For those of us that don't get tickets, we can just watch over the fence for free.

That picture reminds me of the old "Tin Can Alley" game that was around in my youth.  Supply a rifle and see what you can knock off.

A coconut shy is a bare minimum.
