What a night , what a game, Against a star-studded goring side city produced an average performance in a laboured 2-0 victory.
city started slowly and couldn't get any sort of passing game going, and with Hadley and the ginger one from the communards causing havoc up front for goring things were looking ominous, but they gained a foothold in the game and even had the ball in the back of the net which was dissalowed for a push by coops on the goring wall, which seemed a little pointless especially as he was bigger than the original wall anyway!
city had nothing up front and the ball kept bouncing back, (mainly from sholdens first touch) and gills basically looked overawed by the occasion, but a boss Komber produced a master-stroke after 35 minutes when he brought on the fit again macijcak, this soon paid dividends when he was brought down for a penalty, sholden stepped up and neatly bounced it over the keepers hand!
this stung goring into action and they replaced Hadley with phil collins and also brought on norman cook (in housemartin days) but city survived until half-time
City 1 - Creedys favourite bands 0
Komber made a few changes and this changed absolutely nothing, apart from one moment of magic from dorey who dummied everyone with an outrageous piece of skill with his wrong foot!!! the game offered nothing as a spectacle until the last 15 minutes when goring threw on hadley, collins (again), richard gere and the lead singer of the beautifull south, and this sparked city into life who were now playing on the break,
they looked to have won it when pearce broke down the right and squared it to gills who managed to miss the target from 3 yards! this was to be gills last action of the night as komber hauled him off straight away!
Next up was parsons who was put through on goal and strangely he just ran it through to the keeper! luckily for him there were no more subs.
eventually city clinched it when pearce was put through and calmly slotted past the keeper, city relaxed after this and even brought on the tears for fears lead singer at left back!
Final score City 2 - 80s revival 0
After the game things got even better for the gaffer when dorey announced that unless any games get moved to thursday he was now available for the rest of the season!

Hi everyone at oxford city, last night shane holdan was rushed to A'n E with a suspected broken wrist, I cant deny it looked serious so we x-rayed him immediately and luckily no break or fracture was found, he then mentioned that mybe he'd hit a nerve, again we could find no damage there. so its with great pleasure that i can tell you that shane only slightly bruised his wrist and will be fit for march, good luck for the season

Firstly a big thank you to Nigel Mansell for writing a cracking match report and actually finding something to write about after a dire performance!! The highlight came just after the pre-match team talk when Paul 'Young' Creed smashed the changing room light in disgust after not making the first 11!! I can also confirm that Noddy Holden did admit there was nothing wrong with his wrist and he was simply disgusted with the lack of service!! I just wish he would of told me before I had to undress him.. Finally a big shout to Lee Sharkey who has been different class since coming out of retirement!! Man of the Match; Sid 'the cat' Pagano; sausage & chips 6/10 Great result boys and look forward to hearing from the two Justins & Fordy a week before the final!!!  |

Well, what a night I had??? It all started about 7.15 in the dressing room when the assistant manager (monkey boy, Creed), gave us the hair dryer treatment before the game had even kicked off, throwing his toys out of his pram straight onto the strip light above. 20 minutes later, after the boys picked out all of the shrapnel from my six pack, I brushed myself down and got myself motivated for the game. Obviously the shock of all this must have had a big affect on me, as I had a touch like a rapist all game.... Thought I turned a corner after 25 minutes, when calmly slotting home my 1,000th successful penalty in a row. How wrong was I........ 70 minutes gone in the game, and Goring's centre-half Alison Moyet came straight through the back of me like a bulldozer. I thought I'd broke my elbow , my arm, my wrist. Fair play to Bas & Kimber (Bronski Beat) though. Kimber got me dressed, and washed me down in the shower , which I don't think Bas was too happy about? Bas offered to take me to the JR. What a mistake that was accepting his offer??? Left at approx 8.45.....Got to the Pear tree roundabout at Midnight to stop and check for oil, water and tyre pressures, and also stopped halfway to watch a bloke who looked like one of the members of Tears for Fears, dogging in a Kennington lay-by.....Also got the bloody hair dryer treatment again, this time from Bas for turning the radio on.....finally got to the JR at 1am, and said "thanks" to Bas, "no need for you to hang about mate"......waited 2 hours for a doctor to look at my arm, only to be told to stop being a poof and wasting our time.......3.30am, the Mrs came to pick me up, and we went passed Bas at the Hamburger Round-a-bout. Text me and let me know you got home safely, Bas!!!
Oh well. At least I'm alright boys. C u on the 23rd for the Vets night out.

Well after a summer of gigging with my Band Culture Club i thought id check the talent on offer at Milton. think you lot have been quite harsh as i thought your team were quite fit in your hooped shirts and your Number 11 is FIT. Asked who he was and found out hed Fathered many of the squad! Also if it hadnt been for Jimmy Summerville ( crikey hes gained a few pounds ) fouling Tony Hadley in the wall. that FIT one scored a beautiful free kick. Did hear ur boss who looked like he had risen to the occasion in his jogging bottoms say. Good im glad that didnt count Sharkey didnt take it though! Anyway thought it was an 80's reunion as why did Bjorn from ABBA come on? Come a Come a Come a Come a Come a Chameleon |

Your welcome shayne, yes its true I did complete the ring-road in a record 4-32. I know this is a big statement but with a clear road and a bit more practise I reckon I could break the 4 hour mark!
Have a good christmas boys, next time I see you I should be a dad so ill probably be a bit more sensible behind the wheel then, and calmer once ive unloaded these sacks!
