U’s to Travel to Woking in FA Cup First Round<\/h3>\n

Oxford United have been drawn against National League side Woking in the first round of the FA Cup.<\/p>\n

From the last eight meetings<\/a> between the two sides, there have been three Oxford victories, four draws and one Woking win.<\/p>\n

The U’s went out at this stage of the competition last season after a dramatic replay against Bristol Rovers.<\/p>\n

The tie will be played on Sunday, November 6.<\/p>\n

Another Youngster Leaves on Loan<\/h3>\n

Last week saw the departure of Will Owens and Slavi Spasov to North Leigh and Banbury United respectively and now, goalkeeper Eddie Brearey has joined Thame United on loan.<\/p>\n

The 18-year-old, who has also spent time with Eddie Odhiambo’s side, joins fellow goalkeepers Kie Plumley, Fraser Barnsley and Jack Stevens out on loan.<\/p>\n

Oxford Crash Out of Football League Trophy<\/h3>\n

Karl Robinson’s side bowed out of the Football League Trophy following a 2-0 defeat at Sutton United.<\/p>\n

The U’s boss fielded a strong side with the hope of reaching the next round but two second-half goals from the League Two side ended Oxford’s hopes of progression, despite a 5-0 win over Leyton Orient in the opening fixture.<\/p>\n

Loan Move for Josh Johnson<\/h3>\n

Josh Johnson was the latest Oxford youngster to leave the club on loan after the 18-year-old joined Dartford on a one-month deal.<\/p>\n

The midfielder has been involved with the first team in the past two seasons, but speaking to the club’s official website,<\/a> coach Pablo Hayshem said: \u201cIt\u2019s a good move for Josh, his first loan at a team who are doing well and where we know he will be looked after.<\/p>\n

“It is all part of the Academy programme to try and give them experience of senior football and we think this will help his development.\u201d<\/p>\n
