Personally it’s my first game of the season I think it’s going to be a tough game I hope the players don’t underestimate Oxford as I think they have a few players who could really be a danger but apart from that I think we will win 2-1 Cameron and keetings again for me coy

I heard they had 3 players sent off on Saturday so there must be a bit of grit in their team. I'm going just hope it stays dry.

They've got Joe Oastler! I always thought he was a tidy right back.

AND when I was in a coma in April 2016 he heard about it and came and gave me an old tufc shirt of his, signed. A remarkable gesture.

I see Woking lost to Wealdstone tonight so if we pick up 3 points tomorrow we'll be a point ahead.

I would hope that when you were a manager you would have been apoplectic with rage if 3 of your players had been sent off.

Not with the referee of course, but your bloody players!

May have some grit but no bloody discipline. When a player gets sent off he is letting everybody down - end of!

Only 2 players were sent off and it was late in the game for second yellow card offences. You can watch the highlights here:

Just to be accurate, Oxford City 'only' had 2 players sent off but both are able to play tonight as in this league suspensions don't start until 7 days after.

They look a well organised and tight knit team, if a little ill-disciplined. On a 3G pitch we'll have to be at the races from the first minute.

Another clean sheet would be nice... another 3 points would be even better.

Without wanting to sound all Billy Big Bollox, we really should be steamrolling teams like Oxford City... cue our first defeat of the season then!

Nah, .... got to win this one.... 5-0 with Williams to get off the mark.

I think we will win tonight, but I also think we will concede our first goal of the season tonight.

I’ll go for 2-1.

Hall replaces Sokolik in defence and Banton starts; otherwise same side as started Saturday.
