THE Oxford Mail’s commemorative magazine to mark Oxford United’s special anniversary is available to buy from today.

The 124-page production charts the rise – and fall – of the U’s over 125 years and features the big games, key moments and legendary figures, as well as a host of iconic pictures from our extensive archive.

The glossy magazine will be sold at the Kassam Stadium before United’s home game against Shrewsbury on Saturday, October 27 – 125 years to the day since a Friday night in Headington’s Britannia Inn saw the birth of the club.

But copies are available to order from today.

“We really believe it is a must-read for United supporters,” said Oxford Mail sports editor Mark Edwards.

“We have spent months going through every detail of the club’s history, picking out the best bits to ensure the magazine is packed with information – a lot of which will be new to many fans.”

He added: “As well as promotions, relegations, cup runs, takeovers and cracking photos, there is also a special interview with the legendary Ron Atkinson, who picks his all-time greatest United XI.

“That section is sure to get U’s followers talking, because I’m certain not all will agree with his choices.”

The magazine will cost £5 (postage and packaging is extra) with £1 from every sale going to United’s academy.
