I couldn't give a hoot if these people turn up once a season for a final I'd love it if we had a load of people turning up just once a season for a final, I could get quite used to a final every year

If the 'Wembley-only' supporters want to buy a ticket, a replica shirt, a hat, a bloody half and half scarf, a foam hand, a jesters hat then as long as they buy from the club, I welcome them! Hopefully the club will see sense to produce an official commemorative half-n-half scarf for the occassion, I would hate to be forced to purchase mine from an unofficial supplier! How about a third and third and third scarf instead? Wembley 86 - Wembley 2010 - Wembley 2016. And flags the same, divided into thirds, picture of Hebberd / Constable / Roofe ?

Is the 'Band Wagon' a competitor service to the 'positivity bus'?

"Mike Reid is a Chelseas fan"... Don't want to sound fussy but was it a cruel night? I thought it was a 3pm match but I may be wrong. I don't remember much actually apart from Babayaro doing a somersault at the end as if they had just won the European cup. Definitely a night match, was live on TV. Think it was a Monday night.

But I prefer our stadium, which doesn't look like it was bought from the flatpack IKEA 'generic stadia' collection. I would say our stadium was the definition of generic flat pack, even down to the missing parts from the complete version.

That 7-1 brum game was totally salvaged by a really fat man on the cuckoo lane having the p*ss taken out of him and apparently taking it in good spirits - then disappearing for the second half! Can I say that I stuck that Birmingham defeat out until the end, unlike those part-timers who betrayed the club and left early.

? Skarz pushed him in the area = pen Put an arm on him, not enough contact to go down, 11 thousand odd people agreed with me Never a penalty from here, back of the north stand after 4pints... Shocking decision. Guess I need to see it again...

Wasn't there a budget cap in the Conference? Just wondering how Eastleigh get around it on their small attendances. Must have earned a fair amount from the FA Cup run I guess...

Baldock better than David Langan or David Bardsley is, IMO, up there with the most nuts things I have read on here. Both full internationals, and impressing for Oxford sides way higher in the football structure. Sure Baldock can go on and improve, but at this moment in time? Not a chance better than either of those two.

Good to see we are putting up a fight to save the final test. Dead rubber or not it would have been good not to have conceded the initiative. Read your first line without seeing what had happened and thought we had perhaps shown a bit of backbone in the first hour - clearly not. You're right that it's not the mark of winners to throw away a dead rubber but in the great scheme of things, it was still an excellent series win. Not the first time we have switched off in a dead rubber either, did exactly the same against the Aussies last summer. A worrying trend.

The star list him as 6'3, Wiki list him as 6'1.. How tall is he!? Depends on if he uses his hard or soft ground studs.

Not for me it isn't. Much as I love the FA Cup and all it's tradition I want us to get to hell and gone from this bloody awful League. This season! Seriously, winning the FA Cup? Would be the greatest moment of glory for any lower league team in the history of football! Plus, we'd get to play in Europe next season. AND we'd make so much money that we'd be able to buy promotion Di Canio-style the next season, no probs. Having said that - good as we are - it's not happening, is it? So let's just go for the more realistic Promotion-JPT-plucky 5th round defeat at the Emirates trilogy! Completely agree. Would take an FA Cup final win over promotion this season in a heartbeat. But never going to happen.

God no haha, although I can see imagine it !!! I will pretend it is a cover of the original, not the Winehouse cover. How about when I find myself in times of trouble, Jordan Bowery comes to me, scoring goals for Oxford- Bowery. Bowery Bowery,Bowery Bowery Scoring goals for Oxford Bowery Couldn't you do something with the song "celery" instead?

Far too many MK Dons fans in Bicester for my liking, the club needs to market extensively in Bicester ASAP Really? I've lived here all my life and not met one. I saw one MK shirt in Sheep Street last summer, seen more Reading shirts in Bicester than MK. Even a few Wycombe.

Shame, he had settled and was beginning to look a lot better after a really nervy start to his innings.

Boom. Job (half) done. Anyone know if the second leg is going to be on Sky as well? Treat for us exiles to be able to watch this team play! Can't see it with the other tie poised at 1-1.

Thinking back to 1987, remember Aldridge coming off at Aldershot in a cup game that we lost 0-3 with tickets costing £9 Signed for Liverpool the following day. His heart had moved to Anfield Thought his last game for us was a home defeat against Watford?

I wasn't quoted either, so the discussion obviously never progressed to Americans trying to eliminate the letter 'U' and putting ZEDS in words that don't need them.

Tie Fighters don't have missiles (Tie Interceptors do) You don't think it possible that in the space of 30 years they couldn't find a way to upgrade the standard TIE weaponary?
