Our Sky Bet League 1 home game against Charlton Athletic on Good Friday, 19th April, will now kick off at 1pm.
This follows police advice on the game and replaces the original 3pm kick off time.
Although tickets are not on sale yet, when they do go on sale it will only be to supporters with a booking history on the Oxford United database on or before 18th March.

If anything the biggest problem was the tiny concourse given to the away fans, which was dangerously overcrowded
I fully expect Gillingham to be moved as well (guess work rather than inside knowledge)
considering blowing this out now and losing the train tickets. Means getting there with at 12 to get a cab to the ground and then hanging around after.
This makes it sound like they have had problems in the home end, with the tickets restricted to people already on the database. this has got portsmouths doing written all over it.
I very much doubt we would cause any issues there.
The Masters is the week before Oxford.
