Matchday magazine for the visit of Cheltenham another cracking read
Cheltenham Town are the first visitors of 2015 when they come to the Kassam Stadium on Saturday 3rd January (3pm) and, as usual, we have produced a feature-packed matchday magazine to mark the occasion.We have a big interview with midfielder Michael Collins, as well as talking to Jon Meades, recently returned to the side, and Sam Long, who made his first start of the season at Plymouth on Sunday. We also took time to speak to the Beast, as guest of honour Mark Creighton told us about his memories of playing for the U's and how his career has changed since then.
We continue our trip around the world with a visit to Italy, looking at former United players who have links to la Bella Italia, while on a historical theme, games 30 years ago included a New Year's Day trip to Middlesbrough. Our Name Game series continues with a look at two of Oxford's most illustrious past players: Bud Houghton and Ray Houghton.
Chief exec Mark Ashton contributes his thoughts, as do head coach Michael Appleton and captain Jake Wright. There is the usual eclectic mix of stats, action, editorial and history, while our half-time quiz will keep you occupied for the duration of the interval.
You can buy the matchday magazine for just £3 (with a copy of the day's Oxford Mail while stocks last) from sellers around the ground before the game, or download a copy from www.matchdayfix.com/oufc from 1pm on the day of the match (9am for subscribers).
