Old Hooky ruined Julian Darks 44th birthday party celebrations last night, and their 100% record with it!!
City were out of the traps fast and for the first 25 minutes their only looked like being one winner. City dominated possession and got themselves into some great positions but could not get their noses in front. The busy Dave Southam was denied a clear penalty when being put clear through by Wayne Holden, but the superstar referee was having none of it.
City then paid the ultimate price for some sloppy passing and mistakes as Hooky scored two wonder strikes, before adding a third just before half time!!
Fortunately for the boys, Creedy had forgot his hairdryer, so we had to make do with a verbal exchange.. The gaffa was forced to make changes but was unprepared for Wayne Holdens disgust at being substituted, as the boots came flying off!!!
The second half, which was unfortunately ruined by the referee (you know you've got trouble when he has two friends, Mr Yellow & Mr Red, and by christ he's not afraid to use them) was not much better for City. Hooky added a fourth from a deflected strike before 'The Mask' Maciak slotted home from ten yards for his first of the season.
Was this the start of a mighty comeback... Unfortunately not, just the start of the referee's cabaret as he could not himself and introduced Grozzy to Mr Yellow and Dave Southam to 2 Mr Yellows in what can only be described as a disgrace to refereeing!!
This however should not take from Hooky's performance who thouroughly deserved the 3 points!!
Attendance; 11 Referee Score; 1 Food 9.5/10
Up the Vets and Bampton away in the cup in a couple of weeks time.

Is it true that the start of the second half was delayed for 10 minutes while City had to find a new match ball after Shane Bolden took all his balls home?

hi lads, ive read a few of the posts and id like to defend sharmiane folden.
I was watching the game last night and overheard shalamar talking to a fan (real good looking fella) and he was saying how just that afternoon hed received news that his captain had pulled her calf and was out for 6 weeks, this came after he managed to spend £600 on a meal without eating a single morsel saturday night, so when pete said 'take a rest shane they'll be no further action for you tonight' he flipped as they were the exact words his wife had used in the restaurant!
so lads go easy on him its been a hard week

Hi OCFC. I'm the guy who played centre half and captain of Old Hooky Vets. I was the one who looked like the geezer from The Crystal Maze. Only just read your forum, and match report, because me and a few of the boys have only just got back to Hooky. We decided to stop off at the Kings Arms in Woodstock on our way home to celebrate beating the mighty Oxford City for the first time in 27 seasons of Vets Football. What a night we had. Champagne was flowing, and the Dad dancing was impressing the local single 50+ ladies of Woodstock. Fair play to the referee for joining us as well. Top bloke he is??? Even brought his 2 best friends, Mr Yellow & Mr Red with him. I will say that whilst sipping our champagne, we did query some of the tactics that your Gaffer Kim Pomber did which very much played into our hands. Don't want to go into them too much, as we hope he does the same for the return fixture in the new year, but we were gob smacked to come out in the 2nd half to see that he had taken your 2 strikers off, who were giving me, Dave, Dick & Dozy at the back a torrid time in the first half.
We also said at half-time to be aware when they bring wing back Paul Weedy on, as he has always caused us lots of problems in the past, so to not bring him on was another shock to us all.
Just like to thank your staff for supplying Beans after the game? A cocktail of Champagne & Beans, as you can imagine turned into some farting competition at 1.30 in the morning in the taxi home to Chippy.
By the way, bumped into an ex City player, who was there on his own enjoying the singles night in The Kings Arms. A lovely chap, who spoke really well, almost with a plumb in his mouth. Think he said his name was Shane Bradberry? Jet Black hair, although he did have some stuff running down the back of his neck, so I'm not so sure how natural it was? Lovely bloke though.
Once again, thanks for the game on Wednesday chaps, and look forward to inviting you to Chippy in the new year. We are now off for our open top bus parade round the streets of Hook Norton.
P.S. If anybody has seen our keeper, Barry "Butter Fingers" Shilton, could you please send him back to his wife, as he was last seen leaving the Kings Arms just gone Midnight with an Angie Watts lookalike???
Regards
Old Captain Hooky

Thanks skip, you boys really deserve all the praise your getting,
To be fair weve been asking the same questions of the giffer ourselves, Hes bombed out some great players (spec, ronnie, fonty, bas, justin merrit and phil rodney) and replaced them with inferior quality.
he was a beautiful footballer but hes only interested in the long ball and seems to be involved in some sort of power struggle with dane molden.
The new lad warren herbert isnt bad but the first time i saw him play all I could think was why has komber left the mascot on!
good luck for the season lads and we look forward to coming to your place, hopefully sometime in february

I can't believe how much stick I'm getting about this defeat!! I did the double in my first season, unbeaten this season (or was anyway)... Don't you know who I am!! Anyway bloody Creedy picks the side anyway, or so I let him think anyway!! 4 - 4 - 2, 3 - 5 - 1, 2 - 2 - 2 - 2, I dont know what formation to go with anymore!! As regard to ex players that baskerville never picks up his phone on a Wednesday, Ronnie's fallen out with Shalama Holden, Justin Merritt is still sulking after getting hit in the face with a ball last season(can we have our ball back Justin please), Sharkey's gone AWOL, Rory Buster Barrett is still getting fit and well Specky god only know's where he has gone!! Anyway as Freddie Mercury once said 'The Show must go on'... The boys will be hurting about this four one tonking, but we will be back.. Roll on Bampton away in the Cup, where normal business will be resumed (HOPEFULLY) or I might be getting a phone call from Monsieur Cox!! UP THE VETS.   |

I have to agree with Old Captain Hooky. I watched the game on Wednesday, and couldn't believe that your Gaffer didn't bring Paul "Weedy" Creed on??? I remember back in 1977 when he made his debut season in Vets Football, and we got absolutely turned over by a one man showmanship of skill, pace and flair. Our poor left back never played for Chippy again, after getting the run around from Mr Creed. Although we got turned over 12-8, it was a pleasure to be on the same pitch as the lad with the Moustache & Mullet, who had a hand in all 12 goals.
And then to see him sink 10 bottles of Skol Special in the Chippy bar afterwards, and speed off back to Oxford in his White TR7 Convertable for a night out at Bogarts was something that will live in my memory for a very long time. Such a shame that he did not grace the pitch on Wednesday, but thought he was definately the best linesman out of the 2.

I know players shouldn't really get involved in forum debates, but feel I just need to defend my corner. To say I'm going through a goal drought is a little harsh, as 3 games without a goal I know for my standards is not great, but for anyone else that would not even be a debate for the local forums??? Just thought I would like to share some interesting stats with you that I have picked up from the official OPTA Stats on the Veterans Website. (A) I am currently 3rd top goalscorer in the league. (B) I am currently top goalscorer for Oxford City Vets (Haven't heard any of the other forwards mentioned on this forum about their goal drought? ) (C) Currently got the second best OPTA Stats in the Vets League this season next to Hot Shot Hamish from Chinnor, due to the amount of minutes on the pitch plus the assists I have had for 50% of the other goals we have scored. Basically, I have scored 3 goals in 6 half games, because the Gaffer seems to only want to play me for half the game, but I respect and love you for that Brendan. So work out the Maths, 3 goals in only 6 half games is in fact a goal a game. So stick them Stats in your Pipes and smoke em!!!! Wayne (Scores goals in Heaven) Holden |

I knew this would happen, what did i say lads, go easy on him.
You cant just talk to and about players like drayne. the boy is a highly strung and highly gifted individual, I think its worth reminding you lot that if he hadnt broken both wrists in a game of leap frog with jimmy saville then he would be playing for portsmouth now and not your shower.
keep your pecker up yayne and remember form is temperary but class is permanent

I was in the paras with a jeffrey. massive bloke he was, lot of body hair if i remember. we all thought he was a mincer but it turned out he would do anything in a skirt,
I seem to remember that he would drive to southampton for one bit and got his fingers sticky on a bar stool with another. He had a mate who was a real mouthy b#####d, hippy, yippy something like that, but anyway I wonder if its the same bloke?
