OXFORD United memorabilia decked out one Bicester barber shop celebrating the run up to the U’s final face-off.
Staff at Andy’s Barber Shop in Sheep Street, “went to town”
decorating the shop yesterday with scarves, flags, banners and shirts all backing the boys.
Owner Andy Willis will be making the trip to Wembley with his 73-year-old dad John, who has been following United for about 60 years.
Mr Willis said: “Our clients absolutely loved it, even if they didn’t have a haircut booked until next week they were coming in to take pictures.
“We had six barbers working flat out and were all wearing their Oxford shirts.
“We had flags up, shirts from 10 years ago, banners, training shirts and home and away shirts. My partner Emma Fielding spent three hours kitting it all out.
“My 73-year-old father is coming, he has been following Oxford United for 60 years. We don’t know how many more times we will get to go to Wembley.”
