Mossfinn Posted February 3, 2007 Author Share Posted February 3, 2007 Dire In a bid to stop the more than dire recent results, Smith has brought in Martin Foster from Halifax to brighten up the midfield and Mickey Corcoran, a Northern Irish under 21 international comes into the defence. Anaclet still getting a little stick, undoubted enthusiasm but ineffective with supplying crosse, similarly Brevett isn't a wing back so the call is for Smith to abandon the 3-5-2 system, we will see.

Still need a win though.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was going to say that your mate scored to relieve the stick, a good header apparently, but need to catch up properly. I have been a little distracted with the Real game on at the moment, Rugby Union, now that is a sport and a half. Good Luck Moss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mossfinn Posted February 9, 2007 Author Share Posted February 9, 2007 Another quiz question? Who did Oxford play in John Aldridges final game, it was a shocker for Oxford, they were in the First Div and their opponents in the fourth.

Mossfinn Posted February 10, 2007 Author Share Posted February 10, 2007 Was it when Aldershot beat us 3-0? Spot on Dan, I thought it a little easy considering we are playing the Shots today. The old report says Aldo just wasn't interested. Shocking result considering that only a short time earlier we had beaten Man Utd 2-0 in Fergusons first game in charge.

Mossfinn Posted February 11, 2007 Author Share Posted February 11, 2007 Oxford again throw away a winning lead by conceding a late goal, 1-1 final score. The only consolation being the Dags losing at home to Rushden, but had a fine away win 0-4 and Gravesend had an impressive 2-1 win against fellow challengers Morcambe.

Mossfinn Posted February 17, 2007 Author Share Posted February 17, 2007 Duffy puts Oxford 1-0 at half time. Another quiz question, this is the first time an Oxford player has scored 20 goals in a season. Who was the last? Good Luck Moss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dantilley Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 John Durnin, was it? Actually, there must have been one since he was playing. Paul Moody maybe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mossfinn Posted February 18, 2007 Author Share Posted February 18, 2007 Nope Dan, a little further back I believe. It was 20 years ago, any help? Having said it was a little further back this is certainly the case of Moody but Durnin I reckon was approx '88 to '93, so just a little further back.

Mossfinn Posted February 18, 2007 Author Share Posted February 18, 2007 (edited) Me too TP, a little scrappy but hey when you need the points you'll take them any way you can. . But you are also wrong on both counts. Let me see, a clue. I think this guy played for Forest but I will check. Good Luck Moss Yes he did play for Forest, played for Oxford '96 to '98, played 68 times and scored 27 times.

ThaiPauly Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 Well I never. Would appear that Duffy also scored the winner last night as well. All you can do is keep winning and hope the team above drop points. Good Luck TP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Durnin '89-90 & 15 goals So it was 10 years and not 20, sorry about that guys.

ThaiPauly Posted February 25, 2007 Share Posted February 25, 2007 3 wins out of 3 I think now...still some hope...just a pity the leaders keep winning all their games. That Duffy bloke is sure on a scoring streak! have you got to play them again home or away?? Here's one for you Moss. Nine years ago when Oxford played Reading in the Championship there was a sit down demostration by the Reading fans in front of the team coach after the game. (Not by me I am above that sort of thing). They were calling for the head of the then Manager Terry Bullivant. What was the score of that game and who were Oxford's management team at that time?

Malcolm Shotton, I believe TP, but as for the score, I have no idea. It was a turbulent time for both clubs at the time, both going thru managers like nine pins, the stadium fiasco and all sorts going on. But as for the score, I just don't know.

ThaiPauly Posted February 25, 2007 Share Posted February 25, 2007 Not turbulant for Oxford at that time Moss. You are correct ...Shotton and "Flapper" Harrison were the management team. The score was 3-0 Oxford and JB scored a peach of a goal...more the pity for us...but it did not really matter. We were relegated!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I can remember TP it was certainly no Cake walk, the team absolutely hated Shotton, to the extent that there was rumours of some form of strike or walk-out, I think it was just pussy-footballers who didn't like the ideas of discipline. However he got the same ending as Bullivant the following season Good Luck Moss I couldn't remember Harrison though, that period brings back bad memories.

Mossfinn Posted March 3, 2007 Author Share Posted March 3, 2007 As i was just leaving to take the dogs for a walk, Anaclet scored the second. Final score 2-0. It appears to now have been accredited as an own goal which is a shame. The Dags win 4-1 though. Good Luck Moss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
