  1. Tuesday will be 30 years since my first Latics match. I have a feeling we'll get six points this weekend, which will light the spark for this suddenly feeling like a promotion season. Nobody gets these sort of predictions wrong thirty seasons in a row.
  2. That and the regularity with which this team has failed to deliver when the expectation levels rise
  3. I'd say surely they'd give more than 7 days notice of a fixture, but this is the NL...
  4. The only fair thing would be we get the 3 points together with the 3 they took off us at BP for the inconvenience.
  5. Norwood is used to playing at a level higher than one where his captain tackles him when he's through one on one in stoppage time.
  6. Don't disagree about the ref though it was the lino who flagged for the penalty. Some surprising takes on here (as ever) - disappointing not to get the win but we created chances from start to finish and if we play like that between now and the end of the season we will dispatch of the teams in front of us. Whether we can replicate it 7 more times I don't know but hard to be anything other than positive after that. We're in a foot race with Altrincham, Gateshead and Halifax and I'm confident we'll win it if we keep that performance and effort up.
  7. By my amateur calculations, will win the title at BP it they win their upcoming games against Fylde and Oxford City, they beat us, and Barnet don't beat Eastleigh on Tuesday. Anything else and it will go beyond our game (potentially just until 5pm the same day). I'll stand corrected if I've got that wrong!
  8. No, which perhaps oddly given my bemusement at applauding people going to watch their team at a football match, is something I do miss us doing.
  9. The best thing about Rivals was being able to get involved on other teams board (and vice versa).
  10. I do get that, what I don't get is the warm round of applause they get certainly from the pockets of people around where I am in the North Stand (though perhaps not where Only Blue sits).
  11. No criticism of those who came but for the away fans as individuals, attending a game of football isn't an achievement. For the away club as a collective, the away followings are pitiful. We never used to congratulate small numbers of away fans for going to watch a game when we were in the league. What's changed? I just find it very, very bizarre.
  12. To be fair the previous managers would have had better records if they'd replied to their emails.
