Yes, but imagine that fixture from their perspective - at least we were at home! It’s crap from both sides but yes we were at home. I know they won’t let us play Boro on Boxing Day or NYD but we could play Northampton, Orient & Stevenage over the period which are all local and good for both clubs. Just needs a little thought from the EFL at times but then you could say that about a lot of things with the EFL! We are playing Orient on NYD 😀

To quote someone on their forum, '3 points out of 9 against 3 shite teams'. Massive unhappiness. Looks like it might be a good time to play them. I got the Exeter predicted score line right so I'm going for: Oxford Utd 1 Cambridge Utd 3 And Brophy gets one of them. Since Manning left they are slipping. Good time to play them after the Cobblers beat them today. Think we can get something here rather than against Evans sh-houses. Okedina & Brophy to both score 😉 (or Kachunga & Gassan).

My point is that it’s not that difficult to arrange local games over the festive period

Nothing to fear from this one. We can win this one. Shame it's such a long journey.

And Brophy gets one of them. If Brophy scores, we’re on the pitch… I mean, I won’t be there because of family Christmas commitments but I’ll run round my in-laws garden.

I see no reason that we can't go in there and get something out of it. Harris has worked wonders with this squad so far and I think it can continue.
First post here, glad to be here! Will be watching from the USA! Became a fan due to family if any are interested haha and have started an Amber Army USA Twitter account as well! Anyway, in great form and let's hope it continues.

You're supporting the wrong team Bully. Wrexham is the default club to support if you're watching from the States

The whole fandom around them will go away at some point I am sure. My cousin-n-law(Who got me into the U's) hates them even more than me haha.

There’s a big fan of the U’s in the Seattle area. He might join your twitter group. He did a Victor Kiam and loved the U’s so much he bought them.

Obviously it’s not a literal suggestion he’s on Southgate’s radar, but tongue in cheek isn’t the same as sarcastic. We’ve used to sing “England’s number 1” at Shaun Marshall in much the same way. And whilst he had a calamity in him from time to time, I think Shaun was always well thought of by the fans.
