ECFC 0-0 Oxford United

17th November 1979

Attendance: 3,550

LUCKY Oxford, Eight minutes from time they were saved by a post when their former defender, Peter Hatch, raced through to rocket in a shot.

Earlier, another one of his "blasters" was magnificently stopped by 'keeper Roy Burton. Oxford's finishing was poor. They never looked like scoring, although Paul Berry once got the ball into the net and was ruled offside.
