I really hope we win tonight and progress in this tournament. It didn't do us any harm last year. So let's go for it again. I think that's DE and Mapps mindset also. You are completely missing the point. Last year it was the JPT. A proper tournament for league clubs. I'm not missing the point at all. I want Oxford to win every match. Not lose and come out after in an interview " oh well not bothered anyway" because some youth teams entered it. Winning breeds confidence. Let's win the whole thing if we can!

We're the competition so let's try to win each game. Winning becomes a habit and confidence grows so if beat Scunny tonight that would be a big positive regardless of what competition it' is in. Some more prize money too. How many there tonight then??

The lucky gloves can't make it and Dave's dog appears to be boycotting. An unofficially sanctioned and clandestinely listened to 3-0, Taylor and Hemmings both to score.

DE & MAPP appear to be taking this competition seriously so will be interesting to see what sort of side we put out. Of course they're taking this seriously. With the retentive landlord of ours, we need any money we can get. Cup runs of any kind are financially beneficial to the club. Another Wembley would bring in a bundle. Though I imagine the boycott may see a reduced ticket revenue to last time round, it would still be a sizable chunk.

However this Trophys structural conception is the bastard spawn of Satan. I will keep an eye on this forum as its about the only chance of seeing the result!!

Got the feeling this match will end all square after 90 minutes, anyone know the format for ET in this instance?
I'm going to be listening in to the match, as all U's matches, I'm just hoping all the players get a good work out and no injuries, and thinking of it more as a reserves match than anything else.

On the bench for the U's this evening: Stevens, Lundstram, Nelson, Maguire, Ledson, James Roberts, Carroll #OUFC

Finally get to see hemmings and Taylor as a pair, Could/should probably have rested hall. And can't see benji staying past this window, can't even get a game in this and not on the bench. Probably why Stevens was recalled early from city

Think they have a penalty shoot-out to decide if anyone can be bothered with a replay. The Assistant refs then play 5 rounds of rock,paper,scissors to decide a winner. The winner will be the team that loses.

Evening all folks. Doing my little bit for the boycott, I'm on my tablet until the second half.
Hope we win, but draw and lose the penalty shoot-out is fine.
