With Leven and Duberry being out it gives us a decent opportunity to get a victory. Those two have got to be a massive miss for them and we should take that as a positive and seize the opportunity. I like their attack and we all know what Rendell is capable of but i actually feel confident of getting the three points tomorrow. I would be equally happy with a point though. I've heard the car park is expected to be rammed so what time do you guys reckon i should aim to get there for to get a decent spot?

Andy we're aiming to try and get there at around midday. Always go to the pub/bowling for a bit beforehand. Best to get there early and soak up the atmosphere.

Cheers Nick. I'll give the pub a miss though mate as i'm a pretty solitary and elusive figure pre-match and don't drink in the daytime. :'( I feel a bit s****y anyway so i'll just park up, have a wander and sit in the car and watch a dvd or summat until kick off. :zzz:

Could be a tough afternoon this one. On paper the 3 S's and Crawley should be winning their games as the opponents are all in the bottom half. However, this is the final battle and you never know what may happen.

Hope you all have a cracking day and walk out of the Kassam at 5pm with winning smiles on your faces!

Not a bank holiday in Scotland, so I'm in early so I can sneak out early and get home to listen to most of it. COYY!

Wish I could be there. I have a family commitment so can't. I went to the last two fixtures at Oxford, what a two faced bunch their fans are. As soon Oxford show any sign of playing badly, rather than support their team their fans criticise, boo and, from what I recall, leave the game early in droves.

I'm sure the Yellow army will be there in force.

Bit of a damp start this morning, not ideal. Don't worry thigh, we have 2 marquees and room inside the lub do the weather will not defeat us.

Safe journey, Tim.

As long as the Rodeo Bull is still working to ensure the beer is re-seen, I'm sure you guys will be fine!

Massive game today. Leven missing is a great boost for us. I'm slightly mixed about Duberry being missing - on the one hand at plainmoor he completely nullified Atieno and is one defender who could possibly manage Howe, on the other hand 'Duberry o.g' must be one of the hot favourites to score at any point during the game.

Just got up and feel like death ;P so i'm going to have to give the game a miss sadly. Gutted as i'd got everything planned and then random illnesses come along and spoil my fun. I do get a lot of them here and there so it's not the first game i'll miss because of them and it won't be the last but gutted anyway. Hope all the yellow army have a cracking day out and we come away with the points. Sorry all! :scarf:

Yes it's raining up here in darkest Launton too. My garden needs it!!! Thanks Priory for the info as we will be there to enjoy whats on before, and maybe after, the game. I always drop in for a shandy anyway. Now to send Jack FM a little reminder that there are Gulls living in Oxfordshire "Sofy and the big banana crew!! are you listening???".

See you later.

Almost forgot!! Hoping for another 3 points but Chris Wilder will have his squad up for this and with Scott Rendell and James Constable around then I will be more than happy with a draw. Head say's 1 -1, heart says 0 - 1 to the gulls. We aint second for nothing!! If we win then it's more bragging rites for me :clap: :clap: :clap:
