oxfordshirelad Posted July 12, 2016 Report Share Posted July 12, 2016 hello to the better half of Bristol oxford fan here. o'dowda to you is from what I've been told is a done deal for 1.6 million and a 30% sell on fee. you are getting a huge talent he's quick beats defenders at will and is very direct. callum has a chip on his shoulder and some ox fans want rid now. his dad convinced him to sign a new contract last year so we didn't lose out on a decent transfer fee, it's a shame he wants out as he's 1 of our own, I know it's football but to lose roofe and now callum is a bit to much to take, it's football and we will move on.. ignore some of our fans they tend to live in the 80s. I'll keep an eye on this thread. all the best for the season. COYY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cider red Posted July 13, 2016 Report Share Posted July 13, 2016 Is this lad any better than Joey Bryan? Doubt it! Good squad player by the sounds of it. The way most Oxford fans are going on you'd think we had spent the last 10 years in the bottom division! Apparently they will be over taking us soon, watch out chaps....the yellow wall is coming!!

Never seen the lad play so wouldn't know, Bryan certainly needs to be more consistent watched him have some shocking games last season, this lad is going to provide good competition for places which is always good.

Selred Posted July 13, 2016 Report Share Posted July 13, 2016 I'm slightly worried how much the fee will be on this thread at the end of the day. Started at £800k, then £1.3m, £1.4m and now £1.6m! Club record by tea time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bryan is a wingback. Not a full back or an out and out winger. COD appears to be a wide forward so probably not fair to compare the two of them, especially without seeing what COD can offer. It also gives LJ the option to play Bryan infield if/when needed or chooses. All about the depth of the squad and the quality we bring in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rudolf Hucker Posted July 13, 2016 Report Share Posted July 13, 2016 It would mean that, in the season ahead we could field four £m+ players which, for us would be a first and we've still, at least, another RB to recruit (we think). How football - and life - has changed since I started watching City in 1960! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless i'm going daft No your not going daft Kev. They were in the top flight, but think it might have been later - in the 80s. They also won the league cup, as a result of which there main claim to fame is that they are the only major title/cup winer to be relegated out of the football league Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
