Any one here got any tips or experience of using this new ticket exchange thingy?
Or is it only for home games?

Only for home games. You can contact the ticket office ask them to let you know if they have any returns for Oxford or any other sell out away games

Mine has gone up by 10 points overnight to 1720 too!

Ticket office tell me the 10 new points was for the Middlesbrough game. I wonder if I point out home games are supposedly only worth 5 points they'll try and take them back?

Our away form and performances have been very good . We've played well (Sheff Wednesday apart) and scored freely (10 goals in 4 games).

I think Oxford will be full of confidence but that could play into our hands as they are unlikely to sit back and wait for us to break them down.

I'd expect them them to double up on Fellows and Johnston/Grant so it's up to us to use that to our advantage.

Ref: Leigh Doughty
1st Ass: Nigel Lugg
2nd Ass: Matthew McGrath
4th Off: Tom Nield

Reffed our 3-0 at Pompey. Last season did our 2-2 at Watford.

0-2 baggies, back to winning ways

Is Phillips likely to play or has he started his winter break? In a way I hope he doesn’t feature as ex-players have a habit of getting one over on us. I’d still like to see him do well at Oxford though.

He's missed the last 5 games through injury and is a doubt for the weekend

Sorry to hear that for him but not a great shock.

Frabotta starting fir the stiffs tonight so can't see him being anything more than on the bench Saturday !!

gazberg · « **Reply #37 on:** October 18, 2024, 01:37:02 PM »

What I’m hoping today is to be entertained, be better at set pieces and ultimately enjoy watching. Oxford seem to go at teams so I think it will play more into our hands than recent games. Expecting a game similar to the Portsmouth one.

Would be nice to see Mikey Johnston kick on. We really should see Corberan’s best 11 today I would think. Wouldn’t mind seeing a bit of Holgate today.

NJS · « **Reply #40 on:** October 19, 2024, 10:40:20 AM »

recently our wingers have been doubled up on. This should leave some space either for an overlapping full back or a midfielder. Heggem is foremost a CB so he doesn't quite make overlap speed.

At the moment Grant is more effective than Johnston so I would expect him too start. Although I think Ollie Bostock is pushing for a chance.

The bench today will be revealing about what CC thinks about the summer recruits.

Ground reminds a bit of Fleetwood ( although that had 4 stands) or when we played Exeter in the cup under Pulis.
We could do with 3 points today and importantly a good performance. The points to kep on track at 2 points a game the performance for confidence.

Starts for Diangana and Racic. Otherwise as expected.

Would have started Molumby over Racic.

Think our midfield will struggle, no ball winner in there but let's see.

you don’t need both Holgate and McNair on the bench and one of them has just been playing with Jamaica in the Americas. Not really unexpected for me.

I have a stinking cold. Need something to cheer me up.

Good point and the most likely answer

but I would still prefer Holgate to McNair on the bench
