GlossopLatic Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 (edited) Happy about this would still hope we sign another striker preferably a quick one that can run the channels. Edited July 30, 2018 by GlossopLatic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeroyboy Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 This lad sounds more like a morale booster for the fans. Young, with L2 experience supported by goals, clean cut and 6”3' tall. Making it through a Premiership club youth system he should have some pace. Enthusiasm and a desire to learn should be a real asset. Playing off a focused Baxter could prove a revelation. My optimism metre has just been nuged up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

League one forever Posted July 31, 2018 Share Posted July 31, 2018 I like both this signing and o’grady as an option, but can’t help feel we are a ‘main’ striker short. Probably due to the fortune we are paying Byrne- his situation is going to be a millstone around our neck this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BP1960 Posted July 31, 2018 Share Posted July 31, 2018 Had a chat today with Sam Surridge. I said I'd seen him play for Bournemouth against Latics youth when they lost on penalties. "No" he replied "we won on penalties" meaning he now considers himself a dedicated Oldham player. Very encouraging, and another example of the togetherness FB is instilling into the squad. Very good training session, all the keepers in particular having an enjoyable workout with AR. No Jose Baxter in training, but he was signing autographs, looked very happy.

BP1960 Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 (edited) I notice another one from OWTB notebook has done ok since I saw him at Droylsden a couple of years ago. 6ft 5" centre back Josh Heaton is now at St Mirren. Still only 21yo so could go higher. Posted August 30, 2016 On 8/30/2016 at 10:36 AM, BP1960 said: Paid a rare visit these days to a non league match and took in the Droylsden v Mossley game om Bank Holiday Monday which Mossley won somewhat flatteringly 3-1. It was my first look at Droylsden's tall 19yo centre back Josh Heaton and he gave an impressive display - despite all those around him losing their heads. Very good in the air, calm and composed on the ball and showing good distribution the former PNE defender gave me the impression he will be attracting football league clubs attention before too long. One to keep an eye on. Edited August 7, 2018 by BP1960 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ogdenwoodwhittle Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 (edited) Very Confident finish. Tried same move v MK Dons but lost the ball after the nutmeg. Today Got knocked over but got up every time. Did he get his arm injury from landing on the sprinkler ? Got patched up and carried on.very good to see. This experience will give him the confidence to continue doing this Potential to be double figures by Christmas?

latics22 Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 He look very good I went both home games and he looked a handful both times! Not scared to run with the ball either! If we can strengthen the midfield we have a decent chance of the playoffs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yarddog73 Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 What I like about most is his attitude, watched him closely in the warm up and he gives 100% in everything he does, even the most basic drills he was giving it his all, that alone will stand him in good stead, good feet for a big lad as well.
