Looking for help from #oufc I bought 2 adult tickets for West Brom fc away which I’ve been charged for but haven’t received them? Do I risk going to the Hawthorns & trying to pick them up?

Here’s my prediction for our starting XI home to Bristol City. Personally I’d prefer Long at LB and to give Romeny a chance to start as CF but doubt if that’ll happen. Hoping for a 2-0 win. Thoughts fellow Yellows? #oufc 💛💙💛

Just checked the weather forecast for tonight’s match. 1* degree unless you’re in the South Upper which will feel like -10* degrees #BrassMonkeys. Don’t forget your thermals, gloves, scarf, lucky bobble hat and optional blanket 🤣🤣💛💙💛

Looking forward to tonight’s match against Luton. I’m a bit worried that I’m expecting us to win & hoping we don’t get complacent. Here’s how I expect we will start. My prediction is 2-0 win. What does everyone else think? #oufc COYY 💛💙💛

With all the January signings and injuries I’m really not sure about our starting Xl today v Blackburn. Here’s my probably incorrect guess. 🤷🏻‍♂️💛💙💛#oufc

Good half for the Yellows! Great goal from Vaulks Oxford Lead 1-0 at halftime. I’m wearing my lucky bobble hat & Brett has his lucky pants on again & they are doing the job🤣🤪. Up the Yellows #oufc

Great result today and Boxing Day. I even predicted that Gary Rowett would keep the same (winning) starting XI. Looks like I’m going to have to keep on wearing my lucky Jingle Bells hat too. Up the Yellows #oufc 💛💙💛

The devastation on its way is unimaginable - like nothing humanity has ever witnessed before - and everyone will wish they had been climate activists and ‘hysterics’ when they had the chance. We are in a moment of unprecedented stupidity

Our songs are quite varied, reflecting my broad appreciation and love of all types of music. Can’t say I have a favourite but have a listen to Maid in Oxford, Fairytale of The Rebels, Love is Chemistry or our Christmas in Cowleyfornia as it is indeed almost Christmas.

Thanks for the follow too. I checked out your Spotify and followed you there too. How long have you been playing? I formed my band, Cowleyfornia in August 2020 & we have gigged and performed around 15 of the 50 songs that we have written but haven’t officially recorded any yet apart from on YouTube.

My (even more incorrect) prediction for starting XI & score for tomorrow’s “throw away” match away to Leeds. Thankfully FanHub doesn’t ask us to pick the manager 🤣. I’m expecting a 3-0 defeat but hoping for a 1-1. A win would be a miracle (but so Oxford!). COYY. Gary Rowett’s (hopeful) Yellow Army

2/2, He brought us to the Championship and we will always share the sheer joy of Wembley, plus the open top bus parade to the Town Hall. Meeting Des at The Manor Club in November was a pleasure and he understood just what Oxford means to us local born & bred fans. I wish him every success. COYY OTID

I’m still trying to process today’s oufc news & Des no longer being our Manager. Was he sacked or did he leave? It feels like we’ve lost one of our family. I guess time will tell if it’s a blessing or a disaster. Des is a legend and will always be one of us and I’m grateful for all he has done. 1/2

Perfect summary Oxblogger. Time & hindsight will tell if this decision is a saving grace or a disaster. Des will always be one of us & an Oxford legend. In Des we trust, and we will always be Oxford till we die, through the ups and downs, come on you Yellows. Let’s unite for the team. #oufc. 💛💙💛

Here’s my (usually wrong) prediction for starting XI on Saturday, Oxford United v Sheff Weds. Score prediction 2-1 win (Brannagan & Scarlett) #oufc. What do you think? 💛💙💛

That’s Saturday ruined. Not a surprise really, hopefully allows Edwards, Kioso & Dembele more recovery time and takes some pressure off Tyler. Feel sorry for all the travelling yellows who will now have the dilemma of a long midweek rearranged trip to Devon.

OufcRockstar aka Ray Claridge @oufcrockstar.bsky.social · 06/12/2024

Yes, you’re probably right, maybe Placheta then? I doubt he’d start Edwards but hopefully he’ll come on & make a big difference (& avoid further injury!)

OufcRockstar aka Ray Claridge @oufcrockstar.bsky.social · 06/12/2024

My usual (mostly incorrect) line up prediction for Oxford away at Plymouth. Not sure if Kioso is back or if Tyler will miss it if his partner goes into labour? Either way, hoping for a 2-1 away win. Up the Yellows 💛💙💛 #oufc

I am usually trying to follow an away match that I failed to secure tickets to, while keeping my wife happy by accompanying her on one of “our” fun weekend activities that involve shopping or sightseeing. My last one, Sunderland away but I was at Hampden Court Halloween celebrations! We both lost 😞

Excellent. Sorry you missed the game, we’ve all been there, especially this time of the year, dragged to an enforced Christmas shopping trip with our partners. Walking among improvised seasonal cheer while struggling to find WiFi or a signal. Are we winning or losing. I have been there recently, 1/2

Question for any fellow oufc fans who go by motor bike & park at the ground. Do we have to input our number plates at the stadium to avoid a Kassam parking fine? #oufc

Yes, I think it’ll be a draw (Maybe 2-2 ) but my positive side is hopeful for a much needed win despite all the stats 🤞, so 2-1 💛💙💛#oufc. Up the Yellows!
