Very nice but I want to hear the fookin football!

 

[JulianDarbyFTW]

I've just turned my DAB on, and Geoff Foster's dulcet tones are there. Along with what sounds like a howling wind.

 

[speedie87]

they go live to geoff for 5 mins then play a few records!

 

[sw88]

Battle going on between stokes and their number 10. Stokes coming out OK but has had help from Reda at times

But nothing from the last 30 years.

 

[sw88]

Long range effort clattered against the bar for Oxford, rebound put away but 10 is offside.

 

[speedie87]

geez ronan keating now

 

[chiefdave]

Jesus, what is this rubbish they're playing now?

 

[Nick]

This is boring so far

 

[Samo]

We are alternating between shit music and shit football... oh joy!

 

[chiefdave]

Oxford have a goal disallowed for offside.

 

[sw88]

Oxford should have scored. Counter attack after our corner is cleared, Fleck fails to clear from our half, Oxford attack 3 on 1, by the time he ball reaches the box, Vince is back in time to make a last ditch challenge

 

[Nick]

Their number 10 needs his leg breaking

 

[Nick]

Get tudgay on with arm strong

 

[sw88]

Swanson pulls something unchallenged. Kelly Evans preparing to come on (don't ask which one)

 

[Nick]

Swanson injured

 

[speedie87]

light weight fairy

'The passing is poor but its only a friendly' yeah and this time next week we're only playing the best team in our league who will be out to show League 1 they're not messing around. They will want 4 or 5 here no doubt, if we're not on it from the start it will be a field day for them

 

[sw88]

I'm assuming it's Dion (think Devon has previously come onto the right)

It's Devon

 

[sw88]

It's Devon

I got the D part of his name right atleast

 

[M&B Stand]

Didnt know anybody worked in Greece

Thats just what she's told him

 

[Skybluenutterman]

Dire game. Not a single shot on goal. New fellow looking decent tho

 

[sw88]

Few more subs than what was named on that team sheet warming up.

 

[Terry Gibson's perm]

How is Fleck playing has he managed to remove the bungee rope that stops him going out of his own half

 

[SlowerThanPlatt]

How many goals have we scored in pre season? Everyone can stop giving it 'its only pre season' line now, we can't score goals. If you can probably only sneak a goal a game then you're going to want a strong backline and experienced goalkeeper but we haven't got that. I will always give TM credit where its due and therefore I will critisize him where I see fit to. He hasn't adressed our two main issues: goals and a solid goalkeeper it seems.

 

[sw88]

Second half under way. Burge tips an early low shot onto the post and smothers the rebound

We are not conceding massive amounts of goals either so maybe we are going to go into the season wanting to draw every game 0-0? Would a point from every game be enough to keep us up?

 

[SlowerThanPlatt]

What I've been told is that we're now playing a tippy tappy game whilst not threatening the goal, isn't that we critisised SP for? I believe in TM to get the best out of the team but its hardly looking positive
