Colwyn are on an unbeaten run at the moment, and we have not got anything in three meetings with
them. Would be nice to put that to bed, but it will take maximum effort..
Here is a short video of their last home loss to Trinity, so it is possible.

Match On after Inspection!

Just got back, delighted with the point! Every single point will matter, as we go to the final
Third. Mark was injured in training, but Victor is a good keeper, kept out a couple of good efforts.
Two keepers wanting number one spot. And fighting for it (great stuff).
Colwyn well drilled side, Frank is doing great work there. But we put yet another statistic to bed a point!
Got nothing from them before. Did not see our goal, but heard the groan from the club house, and we
had threatened late on, after some good sub's from the Gaffer, made it clear that players have to give 100%
To wear the shirt. We still look open at the back, if they had taken their chances we would have lost, but its all
About 90 mins and we could have even won it as they slackened towards the end.
Some silly defensive mistakes were made, and their goal was a result of one.
But No caving in, stood strong did not dwell and got stuck in .

I see we had a new player Serrano, any idea where he is from?

Colwyn Manager Frank Sinclairs response to end of wining run:

Manager Frank Sinclair said afterwards: " It is a disappointing result and feels a bit like a loss, but that shows the standards we have been setting and the expectations we have in the squad. "We had so many chances to put the game to bed and if you don't take your chances that can happen. But I can't fault the players for effort on a pitch on which it was very difficult to keep you feet. Both teams deserve a lot of credit for trying to play football on that surface and Oxford showed great character to come back and snatch a point after being battered for most of the game."
