With uncannily immaculate timing last night around 5.45pm there was a knock on the door.
When I answered it there was a nice young lady in an Oxford Mail tshirt asking if I'd like to accept a weeks worth of free deliveries of the OM and then sign up to have it delivered every day.
She can't have been expecting a five minute rant on how disloyal the OM have been to many OUFC fans with their handling of the forum demise and that I now viewed them in the same light most scousers did The Sun.
I ended by suggesting she would be better up giving up canvassing for the night and report back to her superiors what a cock up they have made and get them to look urgently at some damage limitation.
To be fair to her she did ask for a phone number so someone could contact me to discuss my concerns, will be interesting to see if they respond.

Perhaps she was so impressed by your rant she wants to call later and arrange to meet for rumpy?

Bit extreme to compare it to the Liverpool and Sun situation!

Bit extreme to compare it to the Liverpool and Sun situation! Agreed. The Sun just reported how thousands of drunk scousers turnered up without tickets, causing the death of many of their fellow fans. (They did embellish a few bits though and add some bits) The Oxford Mail have betrayed us though.

Pushing it a bit far aren't you. I just put it down to the usual Awkward Male incompetence. ;D

Ive got a couple of friends to cancel their subscription to the Oxford Mail. I cant belive they charge 40p per paper, and theres maybe 2 or 3 good stories a week, if that. A massive rip off

Agreed they've acted very poorly. Just thought it should be pointed out that what The Sun did was diabolical, this isn't a matter of life or death.
