Behind The Badge- FOUL
Update: 2025-07-18
Description
It's hard to believe it now but back in the late autumn of 1998 Oxford United were on the verge of going into oblivion.
A fire sale of players including Phil Whitehead and Simon Marsh had been unsuccessful in keeping the wolf from the door and the club looked doomed, with United facing a trip to Watford without an away kit and players and staff going unpaid.
Something had to change and thanks to around a dozen ardent supporters the club was saved, bought by a London-based businessman who eventually managed to (nearly) finish off a half-built new stadium....but that would be just half the story.
