Hilary Sillman is Oxford United's commercial manager - again!

Sillman stepped into the breach following the departure of Peter Corbett last month, and will now start a second stint in the position.

Hilary has been with the club for 29 years, the last eight as club shop manager.

"It's been a busy time just coming up to Christmas, but I've really enjoyed the challenge and I'm pleased that I've been asked to carry on with it," she said.

"There are a number of new commercial ventures on the horizon, and I'm more than happy to be involved in them on behalf of the club."

Meanwhile, communications manager Chris Williams is also to stay at the club after a late U-turn.

Williams had been offered a job at a higher division club, but has decided to stay at United.

Oxford United's juniors have just over three weeks before their first Christmas party.

It is being held on Sunday, December 16 at the Kassam Stadium, but is only open to junior yellows.

The party will involve a behind-the-scenes tour of the stadium as well as the chance to meet many first-team players.
