Oxford did seem the strongest. (I don't support either).

Cambrige for me, it was the nearest.
I remember as a kid, little ribbon badges being sold in the street, light blue and dark blue.
Not now though

Oxford for me - only 'cos it's the closest! :-D

Though I suspect the Suffolk ancestors would have backed Cambridge for the same reason :-(

who will win today? Dad always supported Oxford as he was born and bought up in Oxfordshire and mum was always Cambridge not sure why maybe so there was one or other.

I always think of Cambridge as the underdog dont know why but seeing as I was born in Cambridgeshire suppose thats why I go that way.
