Oxford United have placed Matt Day and Chris Carruthers on the transfer list, it’s expected that Luke Foster is to join Rushden on loan also and be sold to them in the January transfer window. Should all three of these players leave the club then this will leave the Oxford backline incredibly bare.
Oxford have had a poor start to the season and currently only have 9 points from 9 games, leaving the club placed 19th in the division out of a possible 24; if Oxford are to sell their defenders then this could leave the club in yet further turmoil. Just ten years ago; Oxford United was a team in the Championship, in 2008 Oxford is a struggling Blue Square Premier side however and every passing week things just seem to be getting worse for the club.
There was an expectation that the club may achieve promotion in the 2008/09 season, as it stands however; a more realistic task for Oxford United will be that of avoiding relegation to the Blue Square South.
