I've been polishing my crystal ball very hard for this one. I can see: Coventry City 1 Oxford United 3 (Dunkley x2 and MacDonald). Att: 8766 with 1398 Yellows fans. The game will be a routine victory for the U's, but its the off-field weirdness that intrigues me. The ref will lead the teams out with a rugby ball, by mistake, giving a clue as to what type of rubbish he will serve up tonight. 14 players will be booked - all from Coventry. MA will appear with his arm in a sling. Skarz will appear with his whole body in a sling. Curse-him will announce that he's slinging his hook (please). The scoreboard and director's box will both unexpectedly explode. After going one-nil down, United will explode into action and score all their goals inside 98 seconds (a record). Johnson will trip over his boot laces after 5 minutes (nothing new there). Young Roberts (rather excitedly) will trip over the bench, as he comes on as sub. The injured Skarz will just look like he's on a trip, with all the medicine he's been taking, lately. An owl, just out on a stroll, will fly into one of the floodlights after 26 minutes. The hot dog stand behind the goal will serve up rather strange-tasting burgers at half time. There will be a protest during half-time - by the owner of Coventry City. He just didn't want to be left out of the protesting. Plastic footballers will appear when the teams first come out of the tunnel. Turns out, its the Coventry players. Coventry will appear in their new strip - yellow, green, red, pink, black, blue and yellow stripes; their new sponsors - Bertie Basset Liquorice Allsorts proudly emblazoned on their shirts. A dog will run onto the pitch, but no-one will care, because they're so bored. Ten City fans will bring drums into the ground - not to play music, but to sound the death-knell for their club. Dunkley and Eastwood will give each other a big kiss on the lips after 56 minutes (I don't know why, either). That just about does it for me.

In ground. Told that they weren't expecting this many Oxford to pay on the night. "Not used to this many turning up!". Priceless!

Nice touch having all the bar staff in Oxford shirts. And a bar selling Purity beer. A fine brewer indeed.

Sounds like a fair few fans won't make it in for kick off.

I can't wait for this one! Team and Score prediction. Eastwood Edwards Raglan Dunks Ruffles Rothwell Lunny Macca Maggie Marvin Taylor 3-0 to us with goals from Taylor Rothwell and, obviously, Maguire! 1,800 Yellows making tons of noise all game long and an angry 8,000 home fans chanting "sack the board" after 5 mins with about 200 of them left at full time to boo the final whistle! 😄 Will be more than that as 1,900 tickets sold and cash on night has big ques already

There are less there than were at MK Dons! Can't say I blame them though. We've been there and done that

Evening all. Going to be a tough one tonight, we don't score many and they don't let many in so I go for a 1-0 win after a hard fought game.

Coventry haven't brought many given it's only 50 miles away. Oh sorry, forgot we're the away side!

Evening folks. Just had a very large downpour here in Flatland but quiet now. Hope that I will hear the mighty travelling Yellows cheering for a couple of goals for yet another win.
COME ON YOU YELLOWS
