Imagine releasing De Gea for nothing and spending £43m on him 

Very funny, in my opinion

He’s somehow had a clanger for every goal and given away a penalty. Takes some doing. 

Complete bomb-scare every time the ball is in Uniteds defensive 3rd.

Onana is an awful goalkeeper isn’t he.

Only 23 league games played. Hardly Scott Carson is he

Probably means more in terms of age. This signing allows Joe Duncan to play for the U18’s on a Saturday rather than travelling/being with the first team squad.

It could be seen as incitement to some degree but then again football is football, take it v give it etc.

He copped a load of gob and gave a bit back, all part of the game. He certainly wasn’t disrespecting the opponents.

Only just gotten round to watching it.

Another one for NO PEN.

Absolutely not intentional, nothing much he could do about it.

But why Vardy wasn't booked for the celebration, I still find baffling.

Why would Vardy have been booked for his celebration?

It does, but it's sometimes tricky to find a free spot.

Is that because they’re all taken up by dead Kings? 

This is the content I live for.

I know we have many on here that like to design their own kits and share on here. 

So it's only fair that everyone has the same opportunity to design a new robin for the new third kit. 

These are what you are currently up against

 

 

That 3rd one is fantastic. 

I want a 3rd kit with another shite looking robin in place of the badge as I absolutely love the drama and fume that comes along with it.

Back in July I posted on here asking for support for our new stadium proposal. 

To those of you who responded to our County Council survey I'd like to pass on the thanks of all Oxford United fans, as yesterday Oxfordshire County Council agreed to let us have the land. It's a massive step for us, as there has been a concerted campaign from local NIMBYS, Green Party activists, and yesterday even some loon who spoke at the council meeting saying it shouldn't be built as nuclear warheads are transported past the site and we could all die! 

Hopefully you won't mind if I come back again asking for help, if it's needed during the planning stage, as our campaign to get other football fans involved was a great success. Thanks again.

We had Mark Sykes off you for nothing, lending you a hand with your new stadium seems like the least of what we can do.

Oh great. More of the two tweedles from the Football League cluster***k. 

It will be Mark Pougatch & co I would have thought rather than the ones from the Football League show.

It's not been agreed on the day or time yet 

Not right up to date, but I know the club and the police hadn't been advised of any changes Wednesday last week 

He’s on about this Saturday. Wales have a RWC game at 4:45 then at 7:45, Cardiff play Swansea.

Chatting to Cardiff city fan, this is the first year in ages it’s not a bubble game. In his words it’s like they want trouble to make it stay bubble games. 

It 100% is a bubble game. 
 

Not only is it a bubble game but there’s some draconian rules being put in place for Swansea fans who are travelling on the coaches as well.

Are there any left on the wembley stadium website? Set yourself up with a fan id number, it should be alright from there?

The Italy game is sold out.

Think he's now firmly in the 1st team, at least for the moment until the injured players return.

True but he played for the U21’s last week, admittedly there was no 1st team game coming up on the weekend though. 

No Yeboah either. Busy training with the 1st team?

Betty Swallocks not sure what your trying to say here,

but if GWR want to run football specials that THEIR decision which I am quite happy with

 

 

I’m saying what need would there be for a football special if services are running as per normal, it’s not like there’s not enough trains going over to Cardiff on a Saturday morning. 

6 minutes ago, Never to the dark side said:

A few things did any one purchase split tickets and use the football special?

did any one get their tickets issued from Parson Street,if you did a big thank you from me

a request, please tweet an e-mail(or whatever) to GWR saying thank you for putting on the football special

and could we have another football special for the Cardiff match kicking off at 3pm(STAND BY FOR LIVE TV COVERAGE or game being moved to a 12:30pm on saturday or sunday kick off time)

If you still have your train tickets from the train journey could I buy them off you?

 

Surely if there’s no strikes on the weekend of the Cardiff game, there’s no need for a football special. Plenty of services there and back.

Exactly. There’s quite a lot of hypocrisy here - people want small away crowds at Ashton Gate but large away crowds when we travel. Understandable but illogical.

On another issue, for those who want home and away fans in the Atyeo - genuine question - does the concourse allow segregation if the seats are divided up?

Yes, the stand was split in half when the other three stands were getting constructed/refurbed, along with the games against the Manc sides in 17/18 and the game against Derby in that same season.

You can get split tickets using just off peak day returns instead of Advance savers. ie. Bristol to Cheltenham, Cheltenham to  Coleshill Parkway, C P to Leicester.

That way you can get any train returning that day, you just maybe won’t get a seat for all the journey.

Was going to look this evening, wouldn’t have even thought of using Coleshill, instead using the usual split of  Brs-Chelt, Chelt-Brum etc

Sorry, I could have been clearer. A delay caused by the game finishing late, such as at WBA where there were multiple delays (serious medical incidents involving away/home fans and the Baker injury). Not the rail company responsibility 

Just give yourself plenty of time after the game. Unless we’re playing up north and connections are a little tighter, I try and give us about 90 minutes after the game before getting the train back. 

9 minutes ago, sugarwray said:

Was considering the train. If you buy a train split ticket and there are delays (think WBA away a couple of years back) causing you to miss the train that was booked, so you need to buy another ticket?

No need to buy another ticket, just get the next available train. It’s not your fault that there has been a delay.
