Northampton "2nd best" Town visit Grenoble road whilst we are 5 Winless run of games, tomorrow is a must win game if we want to get anything out of this season. We haven't won a league game in just under a month. Hopefully that will change tomorrow! JFH said Northampton town "could be over-confident tomorrow", Town have only scored 13 and conceded 26, so statistically 2 goals conceded for every goal scored. Whereas we have scored 26 goals this season but conceded 20, but recently our defense has looked shaky.
Eastwood Ribiero Nelson Mousinho Ricardinho Ledson Ruffels Hall Payne Rothwell Obika
Hall is must start for me he is direct and very quick so he will keep there fullback on his toes same as Rothwell who will run at players and isn't afraid to shoot just lacks that bit of pace we get from Hall. 2-1 Oxford, We're usually awful vs Northampton, but tomorrow is must win and i think we'll edge it. Hall and Obika scorers
Att-8725
Pep needs a plan b tomorrow something that it looks like, we don't have at the moment, we have this one way of playing and once a team susses us out we just continue to get exploited.
Tomorrow is also #YAADAH for anybody that is taking part in it, Enjoy it.

Maybe not statistically a must win but things are definitely going to start turning ugly if we lose. All comes down to the defence for me, Nelso and Mousinho looked like world-beaters for a while but both have looked shaky recently. If they can keep it tight at the back then we should have enough to wear down Northampton.

Expect a good away following for the Yellows, which the players will appreciate. And if they can respond in a positive way and turn things around with a win we will all sigh with relief!!
Cobblers fans will no doubt be confused with chants such as 'You're supposed to be at home' directed at them!
I predict a riot of goals.. Northampton 2 U's 3.

At this point I'd take any win, preferably with a clean sheet. You may say that I'm a dreamer, bet I'm not the only one.

Don’t know whether i can be bothered to make the long journey from Bicester, well over thirty miles round trip ,would have to be up early and on the road by at least two o’clock, been there before nightmare parking. Anybody know which pub we’ve been allocated, used the Blackbird last time, very friendly and good food too.

Short walk to the city centre and then taxi or bus to the ground. ( www.oufc.co.uk/tickets/getting-here/). Blackbird is always friendly to Oxford fans on their travels. Ask about their quince-based delicacies, you won't be disappointed.

Obviously it's not a must win game, but it would be extremely helpful to get a win and have a good performance to change to momentum/confidence in general.

Don't wear an under-wired bra - the stewards are worse than Stevenage.

0-0 with not a single shot on target for either side, until the 93 minute when we will let one of them amble straight through the middle unchallenged and he will miss hit scuff it a yard inside the post to give them another glorious 1-0 victory over us.

No idea.
Could be a thumping either way. Or a boring draw the way our results are up and down.
But in the best bouncebackability style I think I’ll go 3-1 Payne, hall, ruffels. Leading to the early sacking of JFH and Northampton fan melt down
