The Tavares-mania of 2022 was undoubtedly hilarious for all involved, something for everyone there.

Don't think there was any mania but this targeting of young players is unfair. Same with Norton-Cuffy.

Good to see Kai Andrews on the bench, standout player when I watched the FAYC game.

If he was as good as you think he is, he’d have featured a lot more before getting injured. I trust Robins on this one.

Exciting team selection. Hopefully get out of sight and then be able to freshen up after the hour mark.
Great opportunity for Simms. Will be interesting to see Latibeudiere at CB in a 4.

Is there a time tunnel that leads to 2019 outside the ground too?

Stronger team than he'd usually put out. Maybe listened to King about wanting a cup run.

Happy to see us going strong and not taking the piss like last year.

Hopefully Wright is only out of the squad as a precaution.

Apparently he was available for selection, if so it seems that's the case.

We will be lacking aerial ability in defence but Thomas is deserving of a rest. Opportunity for Binks to try and keep the shirt with Kitching available next match.

I have little idea how good he is as I have hardly seen him play. I just don't get the targeting young players. And Robins wouldn't have extended his contract if he didn't rate him.

Hopefully we score a few early on and give Andrews some minutes.

It’s the JSB activity tent isn’t it ? colouring books and plasticine, not vaccinations !

Should steamroll them by rights with that side. Have Oxford made any changes?

Robins has seen him a lot than any of us and clearly doesn’t think he’s up to it. It’s hardly targeting him, I’d be delighted to see Andrews get some minutes today.

Surprised at Eccles and Sheaf in the middle TBH. Eccles has played a lot of minutes. Wonder if this means Kelly is on his way out and maybe a CM in soon?

Also think people are seriously underestimating Oxford. What would we have thought of some of these comments about us when we were in L1?

It’s a fair point. But we’ve just done some real business on Sunderland and Middlesbrough. We’re certainly capable of thumping them, wouldn’t say it’s an unfair expectation.

Worcester City at home in the cup, hoping she'd get a taste for the great game
Needless to say, she never expressed an interest to develop her passion for the Sky Blues after that thriller

Good to see that it appears Robins isn't though. Yes I suspect they will be a strong team and it shouldn't be easy by any means. Pleased to see we are taking this seriously but resting Thomas and Wright who have both played a lot recently.

Quite a few Oxford fans are suggesting Rodrigues shouldn’t be playing due to suspension.

I think on a net basis there was pretty much no targeting of Tavares. Relative to his actual output he might be one of the most popular young players we’ve ever had.
