Ground
Oxford City Nomads now play at Court Place farm in Marston, near Oxford, Oxfordshire, where they share the ground with Oxford City F.C.. They used to play at Margaret Road except in the 1990–91 season, where they moved to Risinghurst Cricket Club, but moved back a year later to Margaret Road due to a bogey pitch.

Famous quotes containing the word ground:
“The professional celebrity, male and female, is the crowning result of the star system of a society that makes a fetish of competition. In America, this system is carried to the point where a man who can knock a small white ball into a series of holes in the ground with more efficiency than anyone else thereby gains social access to the President of the United States.”
—C. Wright Mills (1916–1962)
“At the ground of all these noble races, the beast of prey, the splendid, blond beast, lustfully roving in search of spoils and victory, cannot be mistaken.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
“Having interr’d her Infant-birth,
The watry ground that late did mourn,
Was strew’d with flow’rs for the return
Of the wish’d Bridegroom of the earth.”
—Edward Herbert (1583–1648)
