That just about does it for tonight. Huge pat on the back for all those who were here, surely the best JPT atmosphere ever. #oufc

Wilder: "Michael Raynes put his hand up on Saturday and he was magnificent, so was the skipper. They had to be and I'm delighted for them."

Wilder: "I thought we got it spot on. We pressurised when we had to & kept our shape. "We've won & I think we deserve a bit of credit" #oufc

@OxfordMailOUFC is it appropriate to run a round an empty German airport with my shirt over my head. Great result.

#oufc 1 #stfc 0 Two Town defenders go for the same ball, Constable picks it up and squares for Potter to bury a finish. Have that.

#oufc 0 #stfc 0 Into the final ten mins now, will there be a late twist or will we have penalties?

#oufc 0 #stfc 0 Oof! JFC almost breaks the deadlock with a sweet free kid, tipped over by Foderingham.

#oufc 0 #stfc 0 Potter's at it again. This time he goes on his own, but Ward's canny enough to see out the danger.

HT: #oufc 0 #stfc 0 As competitive and fiery as you'd expect between these two. Nothing to separate them so far, utterly riveting though.

#oufc 0 #stfc 0 Great work by Wright to close down Rooney, who blasts wide from Williams' knock down.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 05 September 2012
8:11pm
#oufc 0 #stfc 0 Williams gets goal side of Wright, who concedes a free kick just to the right of the box. Coke delivers, Ward heads over.

#oufc 0 #stfc 0 Wilder getting plenty of support from the home fans. Paolo Di Canio seems less popular.

There's 2 patches in each 6 yard box where the rugby posts stood for London Welsh's opener on Sunday. Will keep an eye out for uneven bounce
— @OxfordMailOUFC 05 September 2012

Penalties will hold no fears for #oufc, who knocked Bournemouth out of the League Cup last month with five perfect spot kicks.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 05 September 2012
7:35pm
Just a reminder, this will be played to a finish tonight but there's no extra time. If we're level after 90, it's penalties. #oufc
— @OxfordMailOUFC 05 September 2012
7:34pm
No mention of the Coventry speculation in either the manager's or chairman's programme notes, as you'd expect. #oufc
— @OxfordMailOUFC 05 September 2012
7:32pm
Just 15 minutes until kick-off here and the atmosphere is building nicely. This may be the JPt, but this really matters tonight. #oufc

@OxfordMailOUFC that's a fair point! I'm a fan of JPP and think he deserves the chance of more game time!

Can hear plenty of noisy chanting from outside the Kassam. This should be a cracking atmosphere tonight. #oufc
— @OxfordMailOUFC 05 September 2012

@OxfordMailOUFC putting Potter on the bench is madness in my opinion! #OUFC

Four changes for #oufc. Boateng makes 1st start, Pittman, Constable & Craddock, in for Heslop, Potter, Smalley & Rigg.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 05 September 2012
Rigg (heel) is injured, Smalley was a doubt so is being rested, while Heslop and Potter drop out. #oufc

No team sheets yet but plenty of changes expected for both sides. Lee Cox, on loan to #oufc from #stfc, is ineligible.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 05 September 2012

The first few #oufc & #stfc fans are filtering into the stadium. Lots of orange-jacketed stewards dotted around, as you'd expect for a derby

Good evening and welcome to the Kassam Stadium for what must be the pick of the Johnstone's Paint Trophy first round ties.
Really looking forward to this, as Oxford United look to keep the bragging rights over rivals Swindon Town after two wins last season.
As always your input is welcome, so get in touch with score predictions, views on the teams or derby banter - just keep it clean, OK?
