The U’s cruised to a 3-0 victory over Burton Albion for the club’s Christmas Extravaganza, as we look to offer something a little different for our supporters. Here’s the Christmas Extravaganza Round-Up.

A Christmas Extravaganza wouldn’t be complete without reindeer. We welcomed two of Santa’s reindeer to the Kassam Stadium for supporters to pet and feed ahead of kick-off.

The Oxford City Silver Band got us in the festive mood by playing some classic Christmas tunes outside the South Stand.
