Get in the mood for the visit of Hull with this 4-0 mauling of the Tigers on the first day of the 94-95 season, as John Byrne’s hat-trick and Paul Moody’s strike did the damage before half-time for #oufc. Is it too much to ask for the same again tomorrow?! 📹 YouTube/Jim Hendo

Feels like #oufc, Pompey, WBA and Blackburn supporters are now more invested in this completely meaningless friendly than fans of Northern Ireland and Wales. All eyes on the team news… fourfourtwo.com/team/northern-…

@Keithharris76 @FourFourTwo I can imagine, it’s not exactly the exotic opponent you hope for in that competition…

@JamesR_95 @FourFourTwo I saw us play in the Anglo-Italian cup - vs Bristol City - incredible scenes (of complete and utter indifference)

Any excuse to get some #oufc content in @FourFourTwo👇

@Keithharris76 @FourFourTwo Now we know how it felt during the days of the Anglo-Italian Cup!

@JamesR_95 @FourFourTwo Hahaha - I’ve spent all week saying how nervous I am about Oxford’s big game against Italy

It’s another new ground for #oufc tomorrow as they travel to St Mary’s for the first time. They last visited Southampton in December 1996, losing 3-2 in a League Cup 4th round replay at The Dell - worth watching for Bobby Ford’s stunning solo goal ⚽️ 📹 YouTube/OUFC Archive

Ahead of another huge game tomorrow, relive this #oufc win against Charlton from April 2019 🙌 Two great strikes from Curtis Nelson and Luke Garbutt earned a 2-1 comeback victory on a baking hot Good Friday, securing mathematical safety in League One with 3 games to spare ✅

It’s 62 years since #oufc’s most famous meeting with Blackburn. 21,700 fans squeezed into the Manor for an FA Cup 5th round tie in February 1964, as 4th-tier United claimed a shock 3-1 win over a Rovers side who were 2nd in Division 1. Some great British Pathé footage here!

The last time #oufc played away on this day was back in 2012, when they followed up their heroic A420 derby victory with a 2-2 draw at high-flying Shrewsbury. It didn’t take them long to make an impact!👇 Same again tonight please lads… 📹 YouTube/Shrewsbury Town

@CalcioOUFC @jasonpriestOUFC Agreed - both our and their natural level is probably towards the top of League One. Think the hashtag makes sense when it’s the likes of West Brom & Leicester…Reading not so much

@jasonpriestOUFC I think the hashtag is only appropriate when it comes from fans of traditionally larger teams. I wouldn’t say Reading are a bigger club.

This has to be a #teamslikeoxford post #OUFC

Huge game tomorrow - it’s now or never for #oufc… Their last win over West Brom came in September 1998, when Joey Beauchamp, Paul Powell and Simon Marsh scored in a 3-0 win over Denis Smith’s Baggies. Joey’s goal was the pick of the bunch, of course… 📹 YouTube/Jim Hendo

Oxford United are delighted to announce that the Club have formally signed the Section 106 Planning Agreement with Oxfordshire County Council and Cherwell District Council, which has enabled full and final planning permission for the Club’s new stadium to be issued. This represents one of the most significant milestones to date in Oxford United’s plans to build a 16,000-capacity stadium, which include a 180-bedroom hotel, restaurant, conference centre, health & wellbeing space, gym and community plaza. oufc.co.uk/news/oxford-un…

@sgodfrey True, we were very unlucky there and if we win 2-1 then maybe everyone starts believing again. Really hope Brannagan is ok for Sat - will be yet another hard-luck story if our 3 best CMs are all ruled out within a few days of each other

@JamesR_95 Yeah, I felt that. Stoke were better and more threatening than us, so they deserved the win. Always fine margins though, If (IF) Lankshear's flick or the rebound goes in... Not much recovery time before Saturday...

I don’t think we played that badly tonight, so that’s three OK performances in a row. The problem is our level of ‘OK’ isn’t good enough to stay up - we need to be on it every week, with all our key players fit, and you’re not going to get that over the course of a season. #oufc

@EmlynBegley Agreed, if the last few performances are us finding consistency then it feels a bit too little, too late

@JamesR_95 Yeah - was far from our worst recent performance - but we’ve long passed the stage now for just hoping to nick the odd result. We’d have to win about half our games and we’re not a good or even average team

@benjwyatt Exactly, ‘OK’ doesn’t cut it at this level unfortunately

@JamesR_95 And has yielded 1 point and exiting the cup

9️⃣ years ago today… Maguire, Martinez, Middlesbrough and one of the greatest minutes in recent #oufc memory. Very timely ahead of Saturday’s trip to the Riverside! 📹 YouTube/England

On Sunday, #oufc will aim to reach the FA Cup 5th round for just the 7th time in their history. The last time they won a 4th-round tie was in 2017, when a 3-0 win over Newcastle will also have been celebrated by this Sunday’s visitors… Highlights👇 📹 YouTube/England
