Gillingham 0-1 Oxford United: The Match in Tweets

Supporting this club can be ridiculous at times. After stuttering to a disappointing goalless draw at home to York with hopes of reaching the play-offs looking little more than a pipe dream, Oxford travelled to Gillingham with hopes of a result at rock bottom. Cue a remarkable performance away to the league leaders as United win at Priestfield for the first time in 30 years. Thoughts to all...

In Support of Chris Wilder

It's not exactly been a vintage year for Chris Wilder, with promotion plans going drastically awry and the support of a large section of the Oxford United fanbase drifting away. Saturday's goalless draw at home to York was met with yet more calls for the manager's head and chants of 'Wilder out' after the game. But Wilder still has his supporters and Richard Hanna believes that he deserves our support. So exactly...

PREVIEW: Gillingham Away (26/02/13)

A trip to spend a freezing cold Tuesday evening in February sat in Gillingham's 'temporary' open-air away stand would be a depressing enough prospect. But couple that with the fact that we will almost certainly lose – possibly heavily – and it soon becomes clear that only the most loyal/mental of Oxford fans will be making this trip. Our season is now well and truly over as far as competing for...

MATCH REPORT: Oxford United 2-1 Newcastle United

Oxford's FA Women's Cup dream continued today in incredible fashion as the ladies dumped Women's Premier League side Newcastle out of the cup in their first ever fourth round tie at the Kassam, in front of a crowd of more than 700. After knocking out Charlton Athletic away from home in the previous round they proved that it was no fluke with a deserved victory over higher league opposition yet again. The yellows,...

MATCH REPORT: Oxford United 0-0 York City

The game started, 90 minutes passed, the game ended. It would be easy to leave a match report at that about the game against York City but one must try to make something from it. York arrived at the Kassam having not won in their previous eight games whilst United were looking to follow up a win at Plymouth last time out. York manager Gary Mills had picked an attacking side on paper with forward...

PREVIEW: York City Home (23/02/13)

Oxford return to the ploughed field that is Kassam Stadium looking for their first win on their own mud since New Year's Day. That was also the last time that opponents York City won a match, so one of those runs has to come to an end – unless it's a draw of course. This of course is the first time York have come to the Kassam since the Conference days and they appeared to have settled in nicely...

Something to be Proud Of

There's no doubting that this season has been a depressing one for Oxford fans. The club has stuttered through the season and we're now a full ten points off the play-offs with just 14 games remaining, our promotion hopes looking distinctly forlorn. Long, spirit-crushing winless runs, controversial signings and a ridiculous list of injuries have characterised the season and against this backdrop...

Plymouth Argyle 0-1 Oxford United: The Match in Tweets

Oxford finally ended their nightmare run of five winless matches after snatching a 1-0 victory away at struggling Plymouth Argyle. 311 yellows made their way down to Devon to see the run come to an end and witness James Constable overtaking Peter Foley and John Aldridge to become the club's third all-time top-scorer. At last something to feel cheerful about... A defeat today and were in a relegation...
