Oxford United got their season up and running in style at the Kassam Stadium with a 6-3 demolition job on Eastbourne Borough in the Blue Square Premier.
After two games without a point, or even a goal, the floodgates opened.
James Constable and Levi Reid put the U's two up in the first seven minutes but poor defending allowed Eastbourne back to 2-2 with Patrick Harding and Allan Tait netting.
A comical own goal from Marc Pullen restored Oxford's lead, but Paul Armstrong made it 3-3 midway through the second half.
However, the U's finished strongly, with substitute Eddie Hutchinson, Constable - with his second goal - and Barry Quinn completing what in the end was a resounding win. After some awful defending.

He threatened me with a good kicking, but at 6ft4 and 15st I think he would struggle. I know a couple of U's fans and we get on fine, which is probably why I realsise that my passion for Town is no different than your passion for your club. Enjoy your win and our defeat, it could all be change again next week, thats footy for you.

Abster wrote:Why cheers Abster. I don't know if I can respond to your last sentense, we are rivals after all, but it's gratefully accepted. Anyway, who cares what me, and even emu thinks, if you're good enough ,you'll go up. You should never have gone down in the first place, the football league have made a huge mistake with automatic promotion/relegation from the Blue Square. OK the Blue Square is stronger for having the likes of Oxford, Wrexham and Cambridge in the league, but the football league is weaker as a result. Look at Boston and Scarborough, they just wern't geared up for league football and it's finished them off and Halifax were finished off because they were geared up for league football but just couldn't get back into the league. The Football league have alot to answer for. Too late to change things now though, the gates been opened and the horse has bolted.

We shouldn't really be trading insults as we are both Town fans. Nothing wrong with a bit of banter between fans, but the ol' hatred thing against Oxford is a bit 1980's.
