We'd never lost a home League game to them in the entirety of history until Tubby McShit-tactics Talk Bollocks turned up.Blackheathen said:For those with a 4-0 score prediction, take heart. We beat them by that score in a League Cup game at home in 2013.

Yes, yes, yes.golfaddick said:
yeah, like Dodoo, Kaikai & Zyro when Bowyer brought in no-hopers like Cullen, Ward & Bielik.MuttleyCAFC said:I hope we don't boo Robbo - would be good if we could show a bit of quality tomorrow. He did bring in some decent players, even if his tactics were too inflexible.
sitting towards the tunnel in the Upper North tomorrow......looking forward to giving KR some verbals.0 -
No, no, no. I'll be booing him from the moment I wake up tomorrow morning. In fact, I'm going to start tonight. Don't want the deluded knob end thinking that he's some sort of fan's hero.bromleyjohn said:I think we should not boo or abuse Robinson. Sneering has a great way of returning itself to the sneerer.

This the sort of fixture we have always excelled at... <----- Sarcasm right here.
We will lose in a cacophony of humiliating self reflection and abject meh, it's Charlton init?

Thinking of putting the house on Holmes anytime scorer. Well a pound or two anyway.
Hopefully I'll 'take one for the team' if I live up to my usual betting form with real money which might just enable us to get something from the game.
I really want us to win this one even more than usual if that's possible.2 -
Don't do that as someone said he's not/might not be playing, due to back injury.LenGlover said:Thinking of putting the house on Holmes anytime scorer. Well a pound or two anyway.

Good point about Holmes. He's destined to score at least one 60 yard screamer.LenGlover said:Thinking of putting the house on Holmes anytime scorer. Well a pound or two anyway.

Bad feeling about this. We really need to win to follow up on Saturday. However we have an indifferent record v Oxford and they will park the bus. 1-1, honours even and Robinson enjoys being the pantomine villain.0

We scored break away goals v Barnsley, we need to score pressure goals v Oxford. I'd start Fosu for Reeves - we need as much quality as we can get into the side tonight. Not being disrespectful to Reeves, but I expect them to be defensively minded and we need players who will get behind them.0

Im going tonight, not been for what feels like forever, the life of a boycotter eh!
Anyway, using someones STs while they are on holiday, so conscious is clear, and Junior Junior is driving, can't bloody wait.
Oi Bowyer can we smash five past the scouse gobshites keeper please.

Reeves is much deeper than Fosu's natural position. He's also more of a passer.MuttleyCAFC said:We scored break away goals v Barnsley, we need to score pressure goals v Oxford.

Sounds unlikely Holmes will be playing due to injury - I sincerely hope this is true!grumpyaddick said:

TEAM NEWS
United welcome back Cameron Brannagan after suspension. The midfielder missed Saturday's draw at Bristol Rovers after collecting five yellow cards this season but is a direct replacement for Shandon Baptiste who dislocated his shoulder on Saturday.
Samir Carruthers came on for Baptiste at the Memorial Stadium and could be in contention for a start while Ricky Holmes has been having intensive treatment on a back problem and will be keen to feature against his former club, although more likely to return against Shrewsbury Town at home on Saturday.

Agree with @hawksmoor, sounds like Holmes will play this evening or be on the bench0 -
Does not matter who their players are, and how good they have been, they are not at the bottom of the league through bad luck. If we play to our best, there should only be one resultForeverAddickted said:

If our midfield play as well as they did on Saturday we should have nothing to fear from Oxford.ForeverAddickted said:

Their league position suggests they are not very good.1 -
It is true, they're down the bottom for a reason and think that reason is down to Robinson more than anything
No its not a chance to bash KR again but Carruthers | Holmes | Mackie | Hanson | Whyte | Henry ... thats six attacking players that could do damage if playing the right way at this level0
