FT: #oufc 0 #ycfc 0 All over, no way through for either side, but York will be far happier with a point than United.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 23 February 2013
4:52pm
#oufc 0 #ycfc 0 Five mins addded on. Still time for a winner...

#oufc 0 #ycfc 0 Chapman almost unlocks the door with a 1-2 with Parker, but he can't gather the return pass in the box.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 23 February 2013
4:46pm
#oufc 0 #ycfc 0 Potter tees up Raynes on the volley. It's on target, but not powerful enough to trouble Ingham.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 23 February 2013
4:39pm
#oufc 0 #ycfc 0 Batt booked for hauling down Walker.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 23 February 2013

#oufc 0 #ycfc 0 United counter and Rigg shoots straight at Ingham. The game is beginning to open up.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 23 February 2013
4:16pm
#oufc 0 #ycfc 0 Potter on for Craddock. Think United have gone 4-2-3-1, with Rigg, Potter and Parker in behind Constable.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 23 February 2013
4:13pm
#oufc 0 #ycfc 0 Chambers gets in as York counter, but he shanks a shot well wide.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 23 February 2013
4:06pm
#oufc 0 #ycfc 0 No changes at the break, the second half is go go go.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 23 February 2013
3:50pm
HT: #oufc 0 #ycfc 0 Not too much to get excited about there. United the better side, but no breakthrough.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 23 February 2013
3:45pm
#oufc 0 #ycfc 0 Craddock plays in Constable, who cuts on to his left foot but can't keep his shot down.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 23 February 2013
3:45pm
#oufc 0 #ycfc 0 Batt's through ball just too long for Craddock, who stretches but can't quite reach it.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 23 February 2013
3:39pm
#oufc 0 #ycfc 0 Parker cross, Craddock wins the header but can only glance it harmlessly wide.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 23 February 2013
3:37pm
#oufc 0 #ycfc 0 Montrose sells Raynes short and only an offside flag prevents Blair from running on to a through ball.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 23 February 2013
3:34pm
#oufc 0 #ycfc 0 Chapman gets too cute on the fk and York clear. Ends with Davis dragging a shot wide.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 23 February 2013
3:33pm
#oufc 0 #ycfc 0 Smith booked for bringing down Constable. Both York centre backs have been cautioned now.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 23 February 2013
3:32pm
#oufc 0 #ycfc 0 Blair holds his head in his hands after nodding straight at McCormick. Big chance, and he knows it.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 23 February 2013
3:29pm
#oufc 0 #ycfc 0 Parker has a fierce shot which Ingham does well to turn round the post.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 23 February 2013
3:29pm
#oufc 0 #ycfc 0 United keep the ball well in York's half. Ends with Constable firing over from range.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 23 February 2013
3:25pm
#oufc 0 #ycfc 0 O'Connell booked for bringing down Craddock. United have a fk 30 yds out, central position.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 23 February 2013
3:23pm
#oufc 0 #ycfc 0 Not the most electrifying of openings. United untroubled defensively, but not much threat at the other end either.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 23 February 2013
3:16pm
#oufc 0 #ycfc 0 United break well to give Rigg a chance to run at Oyebanjo, but the full back stands up well and wins a goal kick.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 23 February 2013
3:16pm
#oufc 0 #ycfc 0 Parker beats a couple of men in a great run down the right. Bright start from him.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 23 February 2013
3:09pm
#oufc 0 #ycfc 0 Batt fouled 25 yds out, Chapman curls it wide.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 23 February 2013
3:09pm
#oufc 0 #ycfc 0 Neat work by Parker, Rigg low cross to Craddock, whose shot is well blocked.

Presumably Rotherham were due to play Bradford today, or Mr Evans is in completely the wrong place...
— @OxfordMailOUFC 23 February 2013
3:01pm
Rotherham boss Steve Evans is a couple of seats to my left. Anything you'd like me to pass on to him? The Millers visit here on Mar 5.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 23 February 2013

Looks like the problems with the goal have been sorted, the net's back up. #oufc http://t.co/88aKxALQBV
— @OxfordMailOUFC 23 February 2013
3:01pm
Is the problem with the goalposts @OxfordMailOUFC that it's far too small!? Would expain why we dont score a lot...! #coyy

@OxfordMailOUFC Goal isn't level, delayed KO
— @Andy_Hawkes 23 February 2013
2:58pm
Can anyone in the Oxford Mail Stand let us know what is happening with the goal at that end? Looks like there are some issues down there...

It's Military Day at #oufc so there's a few Chelsea Pensioners about. We're due to have the Abingdon Military Wives choir at some stage too.

Floodlights on already here, it's a murky day. #oufc

2:44pm
Word of warning on #ycfc. They're the Football League's draw specialists. 14 of their 33 league games have finished level. #oufc
— @OxfordMailOUFC 23 February 2013
2:39pm
York won 3-1 at their place in September, but they have a poor record away to #oufc. No wins in last 9 visits, stretching back to 1995.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 23 February 2013
2:39pm
There's about 100 people on the pitch at the moment, #oufc http://t.co/qOlCNzy3fI
— @OxfordMailOUFC 23 February 2013

Congrats to Jack, Paul and Ashley, quick on the draw and 100% correct. Batt, Wright, Chapman, Potter and Constable were all in the squad.

8 of today's 22 were in the squads for the 2010 Wembley final. Rankine, Parslow & Ingham for York, who wants a guess at the 5 #oufc players?
— @OxfordMailOUFC 23 February 2013
2:32pm
@OxfordMailOUFC Aim for him for corners then?
— @AshleyHall07 23 February 2013
2:30pm
Lanre Oyebanjo back in the side after fracturing his skull(?!) against Gillingham last month. #oufc
— @OxfordMailOUFC 23 February 2013
2:30pm
Three changes for York from last weekend's home defeat to Barnet. Top scorer Jason Walker in for Michael Rankine up front in a 4-3-3.

The visitors arrive under a bit of pressure, they've not won in eight games since Jan 1. Start the day six points above the bottom two.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 23 February 2013
2:24pm
York have been out warming up for a while below, no sign of #oufc yet apart from the keepers.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 23 February 2013
2:19pm
Mathematically it's a bit early to be talking must-win, but this can't be too far off for #oufc. They face the top 3 in a row after today.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 23 February 2013
2:16pm
Happy to be proven wrong if anyone can dispute that, but if correct it shows just how disruptive #oufc's injuries have been.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 23 February 2013
2:16pm
Just been through the #oufc teams from this season. It looks like this is the first unchanged XI since August (Bournemouth & B Rovers).
— @OxfordMailOUFC 23 February 2013

@OxfordMailOUFC fifteen goal thriller, Beano goes joint second as we win 12-3

@OxfordMailOUFC Going for a 1-0 to Oxford, with Beano scoring with a cheeky baby celebration. #COYY
— @AshleyHall07 23 February 2013

@OxfordMailOUFC Think 3-0 Oxford with Beano, Craddock and Rigg all scoring

You gotta feel sorry for Harry Worley, not even in the squad today. @OxfordMailOUFC @bigbananaboys

#oufc unchanged, we haven't seen that too often this season. Duberry and Potter back but only on the bench, no room for Worley.

Good afternoon and welcome to a freezing Kassam Stadium, where hopefully Oxford United will warm everyone up with a decent display.
Struggling York City are the visitors, so hopes are high of a second successive win for the U's.
As ever we want to hear your thoughts, so either send us a tweet @oxfordmailoufc or post a comment below.
