Feeling a goal fest today by usual standards at the Ricoh.
3-3 draw I’m thinking.

No idea which way he will go on team selection, guessing it is down to if Doyle is fit or Ogogo to what he decides.

According to Oxford fans, at last week's game Southend were wasting time right from the first whistle. Could be a frustrating afternoon.

Booking for time wasting in the first ten minutes to set the tone would be nice

Could you imagine? Ref rarely books in the first 10 mins unless there’s a physical attack. Do you remember wise making a tackle in the first 5 second once and not getting booked

Was telling my lad who wants to ref when he’s old enough that he gets to decide what his pitch rules are. We were told in training that persistent infringement of the laws would be three fouls but you rarely see that. Much like the 6 second rule for keepers. To be fair one of the things that stopped me cautioning many players was the thought of having to complete triplicate reports for caution and sending off. If you ref 3 games at the weekend that’s a lot of paperwork

Has the 6 second rule ever been upheld?

Is Thomas out? If so I'll go 1-1

But just hope to see us press hard again and play it on ground

Looking for the same intensity from the start as Boxing Day. It was great to see effort and desire a long with some slick passing.

I and a bit of an idiot. I was so wound up that the red allowed the kick off even though the second player touched the Allen before the ball had travelled its circumference

The Law is there, why don’t they use it? It might stop the keeper of the team who is leading falling over and lying on the ball every time he makes a catch. Drives me up the wall.

You'll have a job. Ponticelli is in Tesco with his foot in a cast.

£13 on the gate or you can go to the ticket office and sign them up for the JSBs, think that's £25, and then they get free entry.

assume he is going central with Bayliss on the right.

Will be interesting to see how Westbrooke does.

Yeah, came on against Cheltenham. Looked quite good. Left Back!

Came on and went into a crunching tackle, seemed good going forward too.
