@OxfordMailOUFC personally I don't think they were a bad team Wimbledon and Bradford were far worse the difference was we played great 2day

Wilder: "It was a good response after a tough week for the players. I think you saw the influence of the senior players coming back."

That was the first time Craddock had scored four goals in a game since his days at the Middlesbrough academy. #oufc

Craddock: "It was a good day's work and nice to get on the scoresheet. It was up to me and Beano to close them down and set the tone."

#oufc 5 #accringtonstanley 0 Craddock (4) and Potter give United a welcome boost. The scoreline does not flatter, Stanley were dismantled.

#oufc 5 #accringtonstanley 0 Constable desperate to score. Leven's chip gives him a chance but Dunbavin saves well.

#oufc 5 (Potter 78) #accringtonstanley 0 Leven cross, Potter bangs in the fifth. Football's brilliant, isn't it?
— @OxfordMailOUFC 20 October 2012
4:30pm
GOAL! #oufc 4 (Craddock 71) #accringtonstanley 0 Great work by Constable to drive into the box and tee up Craddock to roll in his 4th goal.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 20 October 2012
4:28pm
#oufc 3 #accringtonstanley 0 United have played within themselves since half time but are still too good for Stanley. Leven on for JFC.

#oufc 3 #accringtonstanley 0 Craddock should have his fourth. Delicious ball from Cox sets him free, but he delays too long.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 20 October 2012

#oufc 3 #accringtonstanley 0 The second half begins with O'Brien on for Capaldi.

#oufc 3 #accringtonstanley 0 Craddock up to 6 goals for the season. First United hat-trick since Jack Midson at Torquay, Jan 2011.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 20 October 2012
3:37pm
GOAL! #oufc 3 (Craddock 36) #accringtonstanley 0 HAT-TRICK! Stanley ripped apart down United's left, Constable blocked but Craddock slams in
— @OxfordMailOUFC 20 October 2012
3:34pm
#oufc 2 #accringtonstanley 0 Rigg has had Lindfield on toast since the kick-off. The Stanley full back gets booked, so is on a tightrope.

#oufc 2 #accringtonstanley 0 Best half hour for United since they beat Plymouth in August. Solid at the back, dangerous going forward.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 20 October 2012
3:26pm
GOAL! #oufc 2 (Craddock 23) #accringtonstanley 0 Craddock runs on to a ball over the top and takes an age to shoot, but he finds the net.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 20 October 2012
3:24pm
#oufc 1 #accringtonstanley 0 Rigg powers in a shot which Dunbavin can only parry. Craddock almost in for his second, but Stanley clear.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 20 October 2012
3:21pm
#oufc 1 #accringtonstanley 0 Should be 2-0. Potter's cross isn't dealt with and falls to Constable left footed 8 yds out, blocked by the GK.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 20 October 2012
3:18pm
#oufc 1 #accringtonstanley 0 Really confident start, the front two have set the tempo by harassing the Stanley defence. Cox has been key too
— @OxfordMailOUFC 20 October 2012
3:14pm
GOAL! #oufc 1 (Craddock 12) #accringtonstanley 0 United deservedly lead. Constable lays off for Craddock to belt in from 12 yards.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 20 October 2012
3:08pm
#oufc 0 #accringtonstanley 0 Constable flicks on to Craddock, whose shot from a narrow angle is parried. Bright, positive start.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 20 October 2012
3:07pm
#oufc 0 #accringtonstanley 0 Capaldi long throw, Mullins wins it but his header is right at the keeper.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 20 October 2012
3:04pm
#oufc 0 #accringtonstanley 0 Solid start for the hosts. Whing at RB, Mullins at LCB.

Slightly concerning to see Olly the Ox beat JP Pittman to a bouncing ball as the warm-up ends. I'm sure the #oufc striker let him have it.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 20 October 2012
2:55pm
Kassam not particularly full with 10 mins to kick-off. The lowest gate for a league game this season is 5,206... #oufc http://t.co/QFqsd8fR
— @OxfordMailOUFC 20 October 2012
2:47pm
Will be interesting to see who plays in the left CB role in Wright's absence. Both Raynes & Mullins are more comfortable on the right. #oufc
— @OxfordMailOUFC 20 October 2012
2:46pm
I think we all know the answer to that one BH16yellow, which is not very. Both need to be handled with care, especially with no reserve side
— @OxfordMailOUFC 20 October 2012
2:46pm
@OxfordMailOUFC It looks strong but how fit are Levs and JPP?
— @BH16yellow 20 October 2012
2:41pm
That must be #oufc's strongest bench for weeks. The injury list is down to a mere four players (Batt, Smalley, Duberry & Davis) - luxury!
— @OxfordMailOUFC 20 October 2012
2:38pm
#oufc players warming up in Kick It Out t-shirts to support the anti-racism campaign. A few players have given them to fans in the crowd.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 20 October 2012
2:36pm
United have dabbled with a 4-2-3-1 Andy, but not with great success is season. Think it would work now Cox and Whing are back, though.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 20 October 2012
2:36pm
@OxfordMailOUFC 4-2-3-1, what's that? Never heard of it before! #wouldmakeanicechange
— @007statto 20 October 2012
2:34pm
Stanley were slammed by their manager Paul Cook after losing at Torquay last week, but they've been fairly decent on the road - P6 W3 D1 L2.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 20 October 2012
2:29pm
I'm sure you don't need me to tell you that's 3 changes to the Stanley side which lost 3-1 at Torquay. Their shape is unchanged: 4-2-3-1
— @OxfordMailOUFC 20 October 2012
2:29pm
#accringtonstanley XI v #oufc: Dunbavin, Winnard, Atkinson, Molyneux, Lindfield, Schofield, Joyce, Mingoia, Boco, Sampson, Amond
— @OxfordMailOUFC 20 October 2012
2:28pm
@OxfordMailOUFC 2-1 to the U's, hope we go with 4-4-2 and stick with it
— @BH16yellow 20 October 2012
2:24pm
Slight correction, it is five changes from Monday, rather than four. Missed Potter returning to the XI, with Worley the other player out.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 20 October 2012
2:24pm
@OxfordMailOUFC Gutted Raynes is playing. #liability
— @Andy_Hawkes 20 October 2012
2:24pm
@OxfordMailOUFC Have that feeling we'll sneak 3 points today! #oufc #COYY
— @george_sheldon7 20 October 2012
2:24pm
That's the spirit, Jason! A really positive performance is needed from #oufc to get some momentum back.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 20 October 2012
2:22pm
@OxfordMailOUFC wasn't sure of Raynes back instead of Worley but I guess he has played with Mullins before. 2-0 Oxford.
— @AbingdonTony 20 October 2012
2:20pm
One good omen, #oufc have never lost to #accringtonstanley. Four league games in the last two seasons, three draws and that one win in March
— @OxfordMailOUFC 20 October 2012
2:20pm
@OxfordMailOUFC pretty positive line up for me, guessing 442, Beano and craddock up front, and potter rigg eitherside. Based on that 3-0!
— @dikko17 20 October 2012
2:17pm
#oufc won 2-0 at Accrington in March thanks to a couple of Asa Hall goals. Since then their League Two record reads P19 W4 D4 L11.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 20 October 2012
2:17pm
@OxfordMailOUFC no excuses now we are basically at full strength but still think 1-1
— @superwayneday 20 October 2012
2:15pm
What do you make of that line-up and equally importantly, what are your score predictions for today? #oufc
— @OxfordMailOUFC 20 October 2012
2:15pm
Hi Stephen. Both Capaldi & O'Brien failed to cope with Myrie-Williams on Mon, but with Wilder looking for experience today TC gets the nod.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 20 October 2012
2:13pm
@OxfordMailOUFC Not sure how capaldi has got a start, worst 45min performance on monday I've seen for a LONG time
— @stephenslay 20 October 2012
2:11pm
Pittman also makes a welcome return to the squad, while Constable is handed the armband in the absence of Wright. #oufc
— @OxfordMailOUFC 20 October 2012
2:10pm
You'd think Whing would play right back and have Mullins & Raynes (former teammates at Rotherham) together at centre half. #oufc
— @OxfordMailOUFC 20 October 2012
2:09pm
Good to have Cox & Whing back, should add some much-needed steel. Leven fit enough to make the bench, there was a doubt whether he'd make it
— @OxfordMailOUFC 20 October 2012
2:07pm
Four changes for #oufc - Whing, Raynes, Capaldi & Cox in for Wright (suspended) and benched trio O'Brien, Heslop & Chapman.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 20 October 2012
2:05pm
#oufc subs: Chapman, Heslop, Pittman, Leven, Brown, Worley, O'Brien
— @OxfordMailOUFC 20 October 2012

#oufc starting XI v Accrington: Clarke, Whing, Raynes, Mullins, Capaldi, Potter, Cox, Forster-Caskey, Rigg, Constable, Craddock
