You Are My Oxford

We celebrate our 50th episode with news of four points and continued redemption arcs for most of last season's bomb squad. We reminisce about what it was like going to some of the squalid stadiums of the 1980s with football writer Giles Goford, author of 'Head for the Floodlights' published by Conker Editions. And of course we get slightly gooey eyed about our very own Manor Ground. And watch out for some guest cameos from Oxford United legends.

Dan and Matt reflect on Oxford United's incredible 4-0 demolition of Leicester City #lcfc and round up the rest of the OUFC news, including the departures of Stan Mills and Brian de Keersmaeker. Matt discovers signatures of players past in his loft and Theo gives a statistical breakdown of new signings Kai Andrews and Luka Lynch.

We're back after four #oufc points from the first two league games, and some divine inspiration from two unexpected sources. We remember crap shirt sponsors, analyse the likelihood of a strange transfer rumour, discuss the best Oxford United fanzine and the Jon Narbett game returns with a bang.

We reflect on #OUFC's disappointing attempt to regain the League Cup and cover the rest of the news from another turbulent week for Oxford United; we preview the season ahead; we discuss the Stan Mills and BDK rumours; we rank the greatest Oxford away shirts; and Matt finds a classic piece of memorabilia in his attic.

Dan and Matt get together before going on their summer breaks to discuss recent goings-on at Oxford United #OUFC, including transfer embargos, pre-season fixtures, our one signing who's now out for the season and possible player sales. We also remember Kevin Keegan, who had some interesting cross-overs with OUFC.

In a bonus episode we chat with Senior Sports News Writer of The Athletic, Matt Slater to get deep on Oxford United’s financial state. Whilst there’s a lot than concerns him about #OUFC’s position, the good news is he can see a way out. But expect a rocky ride.

Dan and Matt discuss the best games at the Kassam Stadium - and be prepared for a few controversial selections. We also have an OUFC World Cup XI, and as always there’s a quiz to test your OUFC knowledge.

Dan and Matt are still reeling from another managerial sacking, but talk themselves into getting really excited about Aaron Ramsey's elite habits, group behaviours and aggressive pressing. Theo pops in to tell us whether Matt Bloomfield can count himself statistically unlucky. And there's a Nicky Banger game of managers you'd rather forget. Apologies for the bad sound ... we lost our local recordings due to Dan's laptop overheating.

25 years ago, Oxford United #oufc were packing up and leaving the much-loved Manor Ground with its odd number of stands, to move to the crappy new Kassam Stadium with its odd number of stands.

The club left behind history, thousands of memories and a unique atmosphere, especially on a midweek cup game. In this episode, Dan and Matt recall memorable games and try to choose their favourite Manor moments. Spoiler: It's impossible.
