Was it just us, or every team? Remember going there on a night game ( league cup I think ) I know it was early in the season as it was still very light at kick off time , 16 of us in a mini bus from our area decided after a few beers ( Taunton cider flagon in old money ) to go in there end thinking oh it’s only little old Oxford WRONG , had us sussed right out waited for us to file in then tbf absolutely murdered us , seemed to have a lot of black lads ( never thought that of Oxford ) . Yes can be quite nasty Oxford - this was about 20-30 years ago mind , I can still the punches now 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hunt and Martin being huge upgrades to their team shows exactly where they are and proves the point very easily, those 2 players alone would struggle to get in ANY Championship SQUAD, let alone a starting 11. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I couldn't agree more and find it astounding that so-called "really nice man" Wael and their new Kuwaiti owner are happy about having this bloke in charge and appointing his dubious mates into paid roles. Plus signing that woman-beating striker from Exeter. I thought Lee Power's Swindon had plumbed the depths of immorality in football but they are nothing compared to this lot. They are the family club if the family is Fred and Rose West. LondonLad26, London, United Kingdom, 2 days ago Anyone who has that animal as their coach should be ashamed. I'd demand a transfer, he's a thug and a criminal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoystonFoote'snephew Posted October 4, 2023 Report Share Posted October 4, 2023 According to Damian Derrick in his sports round-up on Points West Nicky Hunt, not Jack, scored for the Gas against Port Vale last night. He got the right back slot correct I suppose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There would be City supporters who were in their mid-40s at the start of the GAP who are now retired and drawing a pension.
