Awake and bleary eyed, just sunk my first coffee and it's yet to sink in that, today... We're at WEMBLEY!!! Just think of all the FL club fans who would love to see their team play there, it's an experience not to be missed!!! I think it will be a very eventful match and possibly a lot closer than we would like, but I have confidence in Mapp's team who will relish playing on the hallowed turf, 30,000 voices versus 45,000 voices, overwhelming numbers? Nah, we're Oxford and have faced greater odds, we'll make Wembley ROCK!!! Yellows 2 Sky blues 1. You're my Oxford, my only Oxford, you make me happy... COYY!!!

Completely gutted I can't go. Will be refreshing my phone constantly. Luckily i seem to be bad to mediocre luck whenever i watch us so this could be a good thing.
And the best part is a nice cup win could well help convince some of our better players to stick around and help attract new players this summer

I'll get the prediction in now in case I forget and jinx us. 3-0 to the mighty yellows. Johnson, Maguire and Hemmings. I'm even taking the lucky gloves so nobody can say I don't do my bit ! Amersham Dave's dog is well rested and photobombs the celebration picture with the team. Off to get the train and looks like it will be a glorious day.
COYY

Morning all - working today so relying on you guys for updates. Not in Oxon so no RadOx commentary online and very unlikely to get any streaming to work here, so its text updates only.
Think most neutrals are going to be backing Coventry today, given the goings on behind the scenes there - most media coverage has been about them not us. While the playoffs may or may not affect us, they really do not have anything else to focus on, so will be all up for it, but also perhaps less under pressure.
I am very nervous about this one, to be honest, we really have to hit the ground running and fully on our game right from the start, cos if they get their noses in front I think we'll find it very difficult to come back.
Anyway, must crack on with things here, so I can focus on the game later on

Clearly we should be the better team despite Coventry's last couple of wins where they have won. MAPP seems to have a steely determination to win this one and if we start well I could see us winning relatively comfortably. Let's hope so.

Big game, big win (4-2 with Maguire 2, Lunny and Hall) big att.(75989 and 30222 Yellows fans with god knows how many Coventry fans) big protest from Their fans about their owners. You just know the ref is going to try to get noticed, don't you! Eastwood will be sporting his new tattoo, after going to 'Tattoo Fixers'. Gone will be his 'Jesus saves'.......tatt, replaced by: 'Better stopper than Durex'. Come Monday, he'll be back to the tattoo place. Dunks will go to head the ball, but miss and dislocate his neck. Our keeper will go to collect a cross, but mis-time the catch and lob the ball into his own goal - no, wait; that was Ryan bloody Clarke, in 2010. An Oxford fan will be so drunk, he won't remember anything about the game - hang on, that was me in 1986. Shit - my crystal ball is going back in time, not forward! A 59 year old prostitute will run onto the playing area and throw a great big smacker on Maguire's face, before being dragged away by the fuzz (not a pretty sight!) So there's your bloody dog on the pitch! After the game, Skarz will drop the trophy onto the floor and put a massive dent in it. We will be given a bill for £100,000 to repair it, thus nullifying our prize money. Next season, the rules will change again, for this competition. The Premier league will be allowed to field their full-strength teams and we will only be allowed to field eight players in our lower-division teams. Next season, the final will be held at Accrington Stanley's ground and the competition will be sponsored by Tampax Tampons (insert jokes here please.............) That just about does it for me. Come on you Yellows. I always thought this tournament was a bloody mess.

So there's your bloody dog on the pitch! Come on you Yellows. I feel a whisper of guilt about this Dave. Instead of texting my agent to book a crack team of whores I asked him to arrange a team of crack whores. Many a slip, eh?
