Feels like a lifetime away, those Premier League years felt fraudulent with the bandwagon support and the clubs future was gambled in sustaining top flight football.
Thankfully those dark days are gone and Valley Parade is a much more enjoyable place to visit, regardless of result.

Yes, in an area known as Kings Park. Have you been there?

Think that was it. Done the Boscombe 10k a few years ago, and kind of remember seeing their ground.

Quite a few changes to the ground since then including moving the direction of the pitch ninety degrees.
A long way to travel for a 10k run?

A good excuse for a night away in Bournemouth
Why did they move the pitch? Feng shui?

Oxford's new(ish) ground only has three sides, and it looks bloody awful, with apparently little atmosphere, unlike the manor, which was a great little ground.

Have never been to Oxford's stadium, see signposts for it every time I drive up the A34 on my way to Banbury to see the brother in law.
I guess another example of small clubs making it big is when under Robert Maxwell Oxford United also had a brief dalliance with the upper echelons of English football.

He lives in a small village called Adderbury just far enough south of Banbury!

I know it. Actually quite nice around that part of Oxfordshire.
