Just arrived in Flam , Norway. Good news is I have Internet access and the ship (celebrity apex) has a bar that shows live sports! Hopefully they can get the match on. The fjords are beautiful, but nothing will compare to being there. Everything crossed coywm.
Glad you've managed it. Well done.



I've had nerves yesterday and a pit in my stomach today. Not had this for years. Gonna be an interesting day. Hopefully break my big stadium curse, third time lucky...

Yer, I'm not nervous, you are.

Not had this since Crawley away, the what team will turn up.

Result like that day would be welcome.

Ogbeta starts. No Williams at all.

No JDB or Nlundulu.

Devastated for Williams. Not even managing to make the bench. That's a big kick in our sub abilities. Hopefully Ogbetas defensive heads on today.

Must be. I can't see Evatt leaving him out altogether unless he was injured.

Super smart turn out for the Whites. Shame for Williams and Jon Bod, but we'll survive. :oyea:

Very tepid. They've pressed well. Have we had a shot yet?

We’ve been absolutely awful. Not sure whether it’s a case of Oxford pressing and closing off our options really well, or us being a bit tense and not making those bold decisions to move the ball forwards. We just havent done anything.
