Exeter City 1, Oxford United 3: A DOUBLE from James Constable gave Oxford United an excellent away win at Exeter... http://t.co/iLWfZqAw

FT: #ecfc 1 #oufc 3 Smashing result. Constable (2) and Leven seal United's best away result of the season.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 26 December 2012
4:40pm
#ecfc 1 #oufc 3 United doing a good job of keeping City at army's length. It has hushed the crowd, 11 mins left.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 26 December 2012
4:27pm
GOAL! #ecfc 1 (Cureton pen 67) #oufc 3 Coolly done by Cureton. United still complaining about the decision.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 26 December 2012
4:26pm
#ecfc 0 #oufc 3 Penalty Exeter, Batt adjudged to have handled in the box. Looks very dubious.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 26 December 2012
4:24pm
#ecfc 0 #oufc 3 Reid, one the subs, has twice tested Clarke. Still work to do for United.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 26 December 2012
4:12pm
GOAL! #ecfc 0 #oufc 3 (Leven 52) How about this! Rigg tees up Leven, who drives a shot low into the corner from 20 yds.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 26 December 2012
4:11pm
GOAL! #ecfc 0 #oufc 2 (Constable 50) Capaldi ball forward, Baldwin heads backwards and Constable nips in to score. BOOM!
— @OxfordMailOUFC 26 December 2012
4:05pm
#ecfc 0 #oufc 1 Off we go again.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 26 December 2012
3:50pm
HT: #ecfc 0 #oufc 1 Shaky start from United, but they've done very well since and Constable's goal gives them a lead at the break.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 26 December 2012
3:50pm
#ecfc 0 #oufc 1 Great challenge by Batt on O'Flynn. The home fans want a penalty, but it was a brilliant tackle.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 26 December 2012
3:42pm
#ecfc 0 #oufc 1 Rigg has gone past Bennett every time he's got the ball. He wins a corner, which Raynes heads over.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 26 December 2012
3:40pm
#ecfc 0 #oufc 1 Exeter so close as Gow whips in a fk, two men at the back post miss it completely from close range.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 26 December 2012
3:32pm
#ecfc 0 #oufc 1 Davis injures himself (hamstring?) clearing the ball. Capaldi to come on.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 26 December 2012
3:29pm
#ecfc 0 #oufc 1 All United now. Great move ends with Leven putting in Rigg, whose cross falls to constable on the spin. Shot deflected wide
— @OxfordMailOUFC 26 December 2012
3:28pm
#ecfc 0 #oufc 1 Rigg has Bennett in his pocket. The winger skinned him again, Craddock blazes over from close range. Great chance.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 26 December 2012
3:26pm
#ecfc 0 #oufc 1 Batt's cross finds Constable, whose shot is very well blocked. Really wet and wild out there, feel for the fans on terrace.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 26 December 2012
3:22pm
#ecfc 0 #oufc 1 The rain is lashing down now. Going to be tricky for goalkeepers and defenders.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 26 December 2012
3:21pm
#ecfc 0 #oufc 1 Craddock deserves a lot of credit for that goal, he cleverly made life difficult for his marker, allowing Constable space.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 26 December 2012
3:19pm
GOAL! #ecfc 0 #oufc 1 (Constable 18) Cox ball over the top, Craddock caused havoc and Constable lashed it in.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 26 December 2012
3:19pm
#ecfc 0 #oufc 0 Couple of decent crossing opportunities for Rigg and Craddock, but neither can pick out a blue shirt.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 26 December 2012
3:12pm
#ecfc 0 #oufc 0 Superb block from Raynes to save a goal from Gow's cross. United struggling.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 26 December 2012
3:09pm
#ecfc 0 #oufc 0 Cureton so close as he swivels on the volley. It beats Clarke but smacked the crossbar. Let-off.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 26 December 2012
3:08pm
#ecfc 0 #oufc 0 Raynes brings down Cureton 20 yds out, from the fk the striker has a good shot well saved.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 26 December 2012
3:06pm
#ecfc 0 #oufc 0 First chance from a Leven fk. He finds Davis all alone at the back post, but he can only head tamely wide.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 26 December 2012
3:03pm
#ecfc 0 #oufc 0 Leven almost gets Potter in on the counter, but it's well cut out.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 26 December 2012
3:01pm
Looks like Jake Wright's won the toss, so #oufc have invited #ecfc to attack their home fans in the first half.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 26 December 2012

Here come the teams... #oufc #ecfc http://t.co/VkC7lD0I

2:50pm
As ever #oufc need to watch Jamie Cureton like a hawk. He's got 15 goals already this season, inc 2 at #oufc in Sept. Career goals = 241.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 26 December 2012
2:46pm
The #oufc fans are behind the goal and in the seats next to the press box. Decent turnout considering the travel probs http://t.co/dzcpk6BQ

@OxfordMailOUFC a good 2-1 win to #oufc start the march up the league!

You're not wrong, Parker has inherited Mullins' no 25 jersey. Hopefully he can make a similar impact at #oufc.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 26 December 2012
2:41pm
@OxfordMailOUFC Thanks, that was Mullins' No if I remember correctly

@OxfordMailOUFC 2-2 with Beano grabbing an equaliser with seconds to go
— @whispa1 26 December 2012
2:40pm
However, #oufc's record against Exeter is fairly lousy. Just two wins from their last 17 meetings.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 26 December 2012
2:38pm
Exeter start the day 7th, but their success this season has rested on excellent away form. They have the 5th worst home record in League 2.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 26 December 2012
2:38pm
Josh Parker will wear shirt number 25. #oufc
— @OxfordMailOUFC 26 December 2012
2:36pm
@OxfordMailOUFC 1-2 Oxford

No problems of tiredness for either side today after both had games called off on Sat. #oufc haven't played in 8 days, #ecfc not for 11 days
— @OxfordMailOUFC 26 December 2012
2:13pm
@OxfordMailOUFC I think we are going to get stuffed like a turkey - 3-0 to Exeter.

@OxfordMailOUFC a hard fought 2-1 win to the mighty yellows! Exeter are a decent team who score goals.
— @andywilmer 26 December 2012
2:10pm
@OxfordMailOUFC 1-1 today I think. Potter with the goal in the last 5 minutes

— @Englands_urn 26 December 2012
2:04pm
No team news yet but not expecting too many changes. No Chapman so Cox likely to start, Josh Parker should be in squad for first time. #oufc
— @OxfordMailOUFC 26 December 2012
2:01pm
How are you all doing? Who has made the long trip to Devon and who is tucked up at home with their presents? #oufc

Good afternoon and welcome to St James' Park, where Oxford United will take on Exeter City in just over an hour.
There was some doubt about this game but the pitch looks good from here, so we'll get our festive football fix after all.
