toasted Posted August 22, 2009 Share Posted August 22, 2009 Oxford 2 - 1 Stevenage A match full of niggles after some nasty early challenges, especially one that saw Rhys Day subbed off after 5 minutes. Oxford did well to fight for the win against a team set up to spoil the match. A weak referee didn't help - he missed a few fouls and could easily have sent off a few players, mainly Stevenage but Beano was pushing his luck in the first half. So, another ugly win. Excellent!

Mossfinn Posted September 10, 2009 Author Share Posted September 10, 2009 Oxford 2 Luton 0 Surprised Toasted hasn't posted a report, however a fantastic night, brilliant atmosphere apparently, one good goal one great goal, a missed pen and a sending off. Crowd trouble, a cavalry charge of horses and a crowd of over 10,600 for a Conference game, eat your heart out premiership budgets in the Zillions.

toasted Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 Wrexham 0 - 1 Oxford A Constable header wins it. It's the first time we've beaten Wrexham on their patch. We really are seeing a new Oxford here. From Kelvin Thomas down through Chris Wilder to the players, there seems to be a winning mentality that has been missing so often in the past.

toasted Posted September 19, 2009 Share Posted September 19, 2009 Oxford 4 - 0 Eastbourne A super first half display to be three up. However, Eastbourne had their chances and contrived to miss an open goal from three yards. A lacklustre second half display saw us score a fourth but Eastbourne could have easily have had a few. We were lucky to keep a record sixth consecutive clean sheet. Wilder laid into the team at the end of the game for the poor second half showing and indeed we'll need to be much better away to Mansfield on Tuesday.

ThaiPauly Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 Still top though See I told you so. Maybe only a division between the two of us next season But in reality I just hope you GO up and we STAY up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toasted Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 Oxford 3 - 1 Crawley Another great night at the Kassam Stadium. What could have been a lacklustre evening was enlivened by some of the worst refereeing we've had for quite some time. A laughable decision allowed Jefferson Louis to bring the score back to 1-1 from a free kick. His Adebayoresque celebration enraged the crowd. We played well in the second half and deservedly won quite comfortably. Interestingly, both full backs scored - probably a long while since that last happened. (And Luton lost again). Away to Barrow next with revenge for the opening game of last season on the mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mossfinn Posted October 1, 2009 Author Share Posted October 1, 2009 (And Luton lost again). So much for the bragging pre-season, Harford has gone now. How good was the kinninburgh goal? They raved about it on the radio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toasted Posted October 1, 2009 Share Posted October 1, 2009 Wow, Harford's gone? Worth having a dig at the Luton fans on 606 methinks! Kinniburgh's goal was a level or 5 above the normal BSP fare. A long closely controlled dribble forcing the defence to back off and then a sand wedge chip over a goalie who was still in his six-yard box. It had fanatastic technique and vision. On the Oxford official website they're offering 14 days free use of 'Yellow World" so you can see the goal on there if you fancy. Alternatively, "Deddington Steve" posts highlights on Youtube after they've been shown on local TV. Worth checking out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mossfinn Posted October 1, 2009 Author Share Posted October 1, 2009 Good info Toasty, I didn't know about Deddington Steve. However have I got the goals mixed up? I thought Kinniburghs goal was a free kick, powerful and burst the net, it was a bit confusing, I 'listened', on the radio and the boy was behaving in his normal manner. I will have a look on YouTube Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toasted Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 Yeah, watching the highlights, Chapman's free kick stands out more than Kinniburgh's chip as we don't see his dribble beforehand and the free kick was certainly more dramatic. But Kinniburgh's goal was more skillful. Hey ho, who cares - two great goals and we are top of the league! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toasted Posted October 3, 2009 Share Posted October 3, 2009 Barrow 1 - 1 Oxford A good deal better than last season's 3-0 reverse, but the three points eluded us despite dominating the second half. Turley didn't get to make his first appearance of the season. Our lead at the top is down to 6 points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toasted Posted October 10, 2009 Share Posted October 10, 2009 Oxford 5 - 0 Grays A very comfortable win with Constable and Midson netting twice each and Cook picking up another. An excellent performance against a Grays team who played some neat football. With more fire power up front and a new back line they'd be very strong. At times we played the ball around very nicely and opened them up with lovely pace and movement that would be more suited to the second or even first division. Over 6000 in the crowd and we're 9 points clear at the top. York away next and they haven't lost at home this season - immoveable object meets irresistable force - should be good.

toasted Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 York 1 - 1 Oxford York dominated most of the game and went one up. Not until then did we play and we equalised in the 81st minute. A late red card for York gave us a sniff of victory but it wasn't to be. A very good away point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
