Like a dwarf awaking from a coma the Oxford are begininning to find their voices after3 semi decent results. won 4 drawn 2 of our last 6. including beating the league leaders pretty comfortably. Despite this upturn in your fortunes Mooney has still only managed one goal in the last 8 games. :face  |

Hardly firing them in? :nono Parkin has 14 so far, 2 in the last 3 games or if you like 5 in 10 or 8 in 15.
So yes he is still firing them in fine. :mooney

Mooney is a cunt, his attitude towards the club that saved his career make me sick at times.
Toomy Mooney on a piece of a string...

It doesn't seem like it but this season we have actually scored more goals without Mooney in the side. That’s with Brian Howard being the 2nd highest goal scorer and not even making the starting 11.
I’ll admit he was very good one of the best creators in the division and a good leader on the pitch but he clearly felt the strain towards the end of the season. He looked jaded and a shadow of the player he had looked in the early part of the season.
Interesting to see the old goals drying up. He did benefit a hell of a lot from a creative midfield last season, David Duke having one of the best rate of assists in the league said it all.

one other interesting thing about the whole mooney saga is that you lot seemed to have been told he could only play 1 match per week. when he signed here, he was keen to point out that it wasn't true and king only said it so that he could rotate mooney with fallon. mooney's showing no signs of fatigue and plays ever week.
That was only really towards the end of the season, so still may come to pass. |

He faded badly as the season went on for us, his best form was pre christmas.
We do miss his leadership and abilty to unite the crowd but Roberts is a better player. Pitty his intestines are trying to force themselves into his ball bag as someone else put it.

A good Mooney chant would be "He's big, he stinks he really needs some Lynx Mooooonnnnnneeeeyyyyy!!!!! Moooonnnnneeeyyyy!
My Uncle made a good song about Mooney when he was playing for us. To the tune of Abba's Money,Money,Money: Mooney Mooney Mooney Mooney Mooney he will score a goal. The "he will score a goal" changed to "he has missed the goal" when he missed a good chance. Oh btw why is Piemonte an arse rapist?

in our matday prog. on saturday. thought these 2 snippets might interest/annoy you:
If Swindon Town offered to double your wages tomorrow, would you go back?
"No. There was a lot written about the move and I don't want to talk about it too much but the decision was made on principle rather than for financial reasons. In fact, on the morning that I signed for Oxford Swindon actually offered me more money to sign for them, but my decision had been made and after some of the things that had gone on I had no doubts this was the right move."
If the Money was there he would jump at the chance.... This time last year if you'd asked him 'would you ever leave Swindon for Oxford' he wouldnt have said yes...but we all know what happened £££££££££££££ |
