Oxford United (FA Cup)

Oxford might hold some sort of hex over us but that don't excuse any of this shite. Anyone who thinks otherwise is deluded. Some folks get the argyle they deserve. The rest of us want for better.

I'm on a bit of an 80s tip at the moment. Can't it just be like that (say the 84-88 bit)

Just the start?? We are half way down shit creek and not even attempting to paddle against the flow

I know that as well as anyone and I'm amazed Adams is still here but who do you think would replace him? I rockin Johnsons on more at Torquay than he would be here. Football is not the priority and because of that were doomed I tell ee. Maybe a trip outside the football leagues would be enough to get these shysters out of the club? They are a joke and should be getting as much stick as Adams.

Pay peanuts ya get monkeys. DA is complicit because he took his new, improved offer and was arrogant enough to believe he could replace a whole defence in the poundshop.
Two brents in the boardroom. Everything still stinks at the theatre of schemes.

Nailed on. Even though Hallett is now the chair the whole vibe around the club still smacks of the Brent and his seven year reign of misery.
The same characters hanging off the corporate facilities, the same back slapping wannabees and Brents foot soldiers lurking around block 15.

Nothing is changing any time soon and the very best we can look forward to is League 2 football in a tarted up shell of a grandstand complete with obstructed views.

Wake me up when this nightmare is over.

put a call into the jungle and get Arry..... feck knows fed up of this shit

that was my logic pre game GG just grasping at straws for a win..but after witnessing it your not wrong there GG

Don't know why everyone just doesn't boycott the whole shit show until the end of the season. It can't possibly be in any way enjoyable suffering that putrid garbage served up at HP week in week out. Nothings going to change under austerity Si and DA so all you Argo fans do yourselves a favour and find something else worthwhile and enjoyable to do on a Saturday instead.

Financially a boycott would have very little impact since most of the 8,000 odd who attend the league games are season ticket holders thus the club already has their bunce.

Maybe the empty seats would have a visual effect on the board, maybe.

Whose decision was it to offer DA a 5 year contract? I'll give you a clue he's still lurking around block 16 like a bad smell as if he's still numero uno chairman.

Club stinks to high heaven.

oxford played some neat football at times knocking the ball around with some great ball control. There goals where well taken but what was our defence playing at!!!

songo'o seemed determined to pass the ball to the invisible man which im sure he was told to hoof it up field when he gets the ball a im sure hes not blind or mad.

we took our goal well from a break away but despite a few near misses i never got the feeling we would nick a draw or indeed win the game. Lucky for us this wasnt a league game as this result would have cause even more damage than missing out on a potential big money 3rd fa cup game.

We are running out of time now.

It will take awhile for the stench of Brent to finally disappear from Home Park, if it ever does that is.

I can see our defensive "coach" being sacked next before DA goes, so it would be goodbye to Wotton

Desperately desperate times 50 years on from first visit as an excited 8 year old how the hell has this club got into this state
We can't blame Newell Webb the Shyster Simple Si Bungo for all the catastrophic failures....
Hang on maybe we can

You forgot the collective compliant fanbase Harve who go along with anything in the name of Argo and accept any old crap be it the football, the ground etc.
A big part of PAFC slide/downfall apart from being exploited by an opportunistic shyster is the "punching above our weight" psychology that pervades the club bottom up.
They get the kind of club they deserve.
So looking forward to the cricket next year.

We might be saved yet, rumours up here are Oxford United are facing cashflow issues and could be heading to Administration..
