#oufc 2 #afcwimbledon 2 Double change for the visitors. Johnson & Strutton on for Jolley & Harrison. Shutting up shop for a point?
— @OxfordMailOUFC 02 October 2012
9:16pm
#oufc 2 #afcwimbledon 2 Heslop drives low just past the post. 22 mins left, can't see this ending 2-2.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 02 October 2012
9:09pm
#oufc 2 #afcwimbledon 2 Clarke is about to come on, Brown definitely has an issue. Will be United's third sub.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 02 October 2012
9:04pm
#oufc 2 #afcwimbledon 2 Jolley curls a shot which hits the inside of the post and bounces clear. Brown just watched it.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 02 October 2012
9:02pm
GOAL! #oufc 2 (Smalley 55) #afcwimbledon 2 We're level again. Rigg's cross is headed by Potter, Brown can only parry and Smalley taps in.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 02 October 2012
8:55pm
#oufc 1 #afcwimbledon 2 Batt screams a shot just over the bar. Looks like Clarke may be coming on for Brown, who may have a problem.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 02 October 2012
8:51pm
#oufc 1 #afcwimbledon 2 Heslop on for Cox at half time.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 02 October 2012

— @OxfordMailOUFC 02 October 2012
8:30pm
#oufc 1 #afcwimbledon 2 JFC and Craddock see low shots well saved by Brown in quick succession.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 02 October 2012
8:30pm
#oufc 1 #afcwimbledon 2 Fantastic block from O'Brien, but there's no getting away from how shaky United look defensively.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 02 October 2012
8:25pm
GOAL! #oufc 1 #afcwimbledon 2 (Fenlon 36) Visitors lead as the right back cuts on to his left foot and finds the corner from 25 yards.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 02 October 2012
8:20pm
#oufc 1 #afcwimbledon 1 That's Raynes' last action. He comes off injured, replaced by Worley.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 02 October 2012
8:19pm
#oufc 1 #afcwimbledon 1 Long clearance sends Harrison straight through. Takes it round Brown, but his shot hits Raynes and flies wide.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 02 October 2012
8:12pm
#oufc 1 #afcwimbledon 1 Chance from a JFC corner, right to Smalley, who makes a hash of his header. Waste.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 02 October 2012
8:09pm
@OxfordMailOUFC another goal from a set piece.
— @JamesPitt85 02 October 2012
8:09pm

— @OxfordMailOUFC 02 October 2012
7:57pm
GOAL! #oufc 1 (JFC 9) #afcwimbledon 0 Farmcomb booked for cynically bringing down Rigg. JFC curls in the free-kick.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 02 October 2012
7:53pm
#oufc 0 #afcwimbledon 0 Good response from United. Two corners in quick succession, Wimbledon look vulnerable.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 02 October 2012
7:50pm
#oufc 0 #afcwimbledon 0 Nervy start from the hosts as S Moore has a volley turned round the post. From the corner Brown saves from Gregory.

No way that we will break our all time record number of consec league defeats - six (87-88 and 12-13) . Luckily it is only struggling Dons - easy draw at the least COYY.
7:38pm
@OxfordMailOUFC surprised Craddock and Smalley have made 1st team, they're form isn't great.
— @JamesPitt85 02 October 2012

@OxfordMailOUFC he didn't manage last time. . That's why we let him go Coyy!!
— @kevbrooks2 02 October 2012
7:21pm
Midson only notched 12 in 64 apps at #oufc, but he smashed 20 for AFC Wimbledon last season. 2 goals so far this season.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 02 October 2012
7:19pm
Jack Midson back for AFC Wimbledon after suspension. I'm sure he'll be keen to impress against his former club. #oufc
— @OxfordMailOUFC 02 October 2012
7:18pm
@OxfordMailOUFC we will either batter them tonight or be a dull nil nil so I'll sticky my neck out with an oufc 6-4 win

Still 40 mins to kick-off here but very few #oufc fans in so far. Anyone not coming because of the slump?

@OxfordMailOUFC 2-1 to the U's
— @BH16yellow 02 October 2012

@Yellowtillidie @OxfordMailOUFC good competition in only position all players are fit!!
— @kevbrooks2 02 October 2012
7:07pm
@OxfordMailOUFC would say unfair to drop him (Brown) but Clarkey is top pro and top bloke so will come fighting back
— @Yellowtillidie 02 October 2012
7:04pm
#oufc's goalkeepers out, but it's Clarke warming up Brown. Wilder hinted yesterday RC would stay on the bench tonight, good decision?
— @OxfordMailOUFC 02 October 2012
7:04pm
@OxfordMailOUFC 2-0 Oxford. Rigg and Craddock
— @richclareoufc 02 October 2012
7:04pm
@OxfordMailOUFC that's also a reason against it sssshhhh
— @captainox 02 October 2012
7:02pm
Reasons to think tonight is the night no 1: #oufc have won every time they've played #afcwimbledon, all without conceding a goal.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 02 October 2012
7:02pm
@OxfordMailOUFC 2-0 Oufc, if you want scorers go for Potter and Craddock
— @Yellowtillidie 02 October 2012
@OxfordMailOUFC we need to start constable
— @Eggjarni 02 October 2012
7:01pm
@oufcwestoxon76 @OxfordMailOUFC the club didn't turn it down Beano did
— @kevbrooks2 02 October 2012
7:01pm
Also, let's have your score predictions. Home win, anyone?
— @OxfordMailOUFC 02 October 2012
7:00pm
Two changes for #oufc. O'Brien in for Capaldi at LB, Smalley in for Worley - looks like United are going 4-4-2 tonight. Thoughts?
— @OxfordMailOUFC 02 October 2012
6:58pm
Key to both team's bad runs have been at the back. These two have the worst records in the division, leaking a whopping 39 goals in 18 games
— @OxfordMailOUFC 02 October 2012
6:58pm
@OxfordMailOUFC Beano on the bench again, god give me strength. Still at least its 4-4-2.
— @Mitcheast1 02 October 2012
6:58pm
@OxfordMailOUFC still don't understand club turns down 200k offer for striker & he does not start?!?Money could have been used to strengthen
— @oufcwestoxon76 02 October 2012
6:57pm
#oufc subs: Clarke, Heslop, Capaldi, Boateng, Constable, Leven, Worley
— @OxfordMailOUFC 02 October 2012
6:57pm
#oufc side to face AFC Wimbledon: Brown, Batt, Raynes, Wright, O'Brien, Potter, Cox, Forster-Caskey, Rigg, Craddock, Smalley
— @OxfordMailOUFC 02 October 2012
6:51pm
Both sides come into the game in ropey form. #oufc have lost their last 6, #afcwimbledon just one win in that time.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 02 October 2012
6:51pm
@OxfordMailOUFC gonna stick my neck out and say wilder last match
— @russwatts5 02 October 2012
@OxfordMailOUFC that... or Wilders.
— @maybejames 02 October 2012
6:51pm
The first thing to report is it's wet and windy here at the Kassam. Not a night defenders are going to relish, we could have a few goals.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 02 October 2012
6:48pm
Evening everyone, I trust you've all got your lucky pants on? Good, I'm going to stick my neck out and say #oufc's run ends tonight.
