I’d rather play and go for the win. If we keep the same side, even Carey,
there’s every chance of 3 points. No trying for a draw, go for the win. Anyone can beat anyone in this league. If we lose then at least we had a go and we move on.
Exactly. It's Oxford, not Real Madrid. I doubt Oxford have spent more than 5 or 6 of the last 130 years above us in the pyramid.Clever bit of quoting oneself there!
Definitely wouldn't take a point now. We're 8 points behind Oxford and they have a game in hand. And one point isn't a whole lot of use. Always play for three.
How does 130 year history come into play for Saturday though? It's probable that Brighton or Brentford haven't either, but I can't imagine either of those clubs would be shitting themselves because of historic league finishes versus Blackpool.Exactly.

Similarly though some of your fans are quoting form, recent results and table position - all goes out of the window come 3pm on Saturday.How does 130 year history come into play for Saturday though?
But doesn't that make sense? It's factoring in the current playing staff, manager, stadium, weather, mental health etc etc - all recent stats that the bookies themselves would use to forecast how things might play out.Similarly though some of your fans are quoting form, recent results and table position - all goes out of the window come 3pm on Saturday.
