Oxford United: a medium-sized fish in a medium-sized pond?

[ghanimah]

Judging by the comments at the bottom, this article seems to have upset our little 'friends' up the road. I particularly like the last paragraph

Always good to see someone having ago at the pox  

[Rich Pullen]

Saving the best until last, our good friend Mr. Rayner goes on to say: “We’ve just lost at home to Forest Green Rovers and no, I hadn’t heard of them either.”

Just in case you missed that: “No, I hadn’t heard of them either.”

It’s difficult to work out which is funnier: the fact that this particular football fan is so narrow-minded that he believes nothing exists outside the 92 League clubs; or the fact that he thinks a magazine that covers football right to the deepest, darkest outreaches of the world had also never heard of Forest Green Rovers.

That phrase annoyed me too - arrogance. I was also quick to point out that the Oxford fan didn't realise that it was a Football League poll and therefore the pox were not considered - moron.

A point that was made in the next edition by a Town fan

...letters which gave FFT the opportunity - twice - of printing pictures of upset / gutted Poxford fans.

"but he appears to have overlooked at least one certainty: the reason Oxford United are not listed in a Football League survey is because they are not a Football League club anymore"

 

Inbred losers. End

'Medium sized fish in a medium size pond'?

I would have thought a better analogy would be a small piece of shit in the septic tank that is non league football
