United were beaten 2-1 by Swansea City on Saturday, ending an unbeaten home run of six Sky Bet Championship matches at the Kassam Stadium.

The U’s also knocked Peterborough United out of the Carabao Cup at Grenoble Road this season, and with Hull City visiting tonight, there is an immediate opportunity to put the weekend firmly in the past.

United head coach Buckingham said: “When that stadium creates the atmosphere it has done in the majority of games, certainly with the play-off run-up and the start of the season, you don’t realise the impact that does have on the field, in a really positive manner.

“It’s really noticeable when it’s quiet, and it’s really noticeable when there isn’t that atmosphere there.

“It’s on us to get the crowd going, but at times when that’s not possible, we’ve already seen the impact they can have on making sure they provide that little bit extra for us in those home games.”

He added: “Our three-sided fortress isn’t everyone’s cup of tea, but it’s ours. We enjoy playing at home and we’re used to it.

“The fence behind the goal maybe surprises a couple of teams that have come here, and can take some getting used to, but we enjoy it.

“We’ve had some really good memories here in the short-term, certainly in the last six to eight months.

“We’ve had some really good moments, and we want to make sure we continue those.”
