  1. Neville & Carragher were discussing Everton back 3 yesterday and how having 2 x 30 year old plus defenders (Williams & Jags) is too much, they are slowing down and dropping too deep, conceding lots of goals. They reckoned a back 3 should have at least 2 good mobile players to play that system. It seems to be our issue as well.
  2. Hopefully the investors have noticed that Bryan, Byrne and Doyle are doing the business so far and give Shez credit for being a good judge of player.
  3. Maybe Sheridan wants out & wants to get sacked. Knows he can't walk after his promise to the fans. Or is he only picking 'his players' goalkeeper apart, to bite back at the situation?
  4. Where's the Belgian lad, Ryan Mc, Davies, Green, Flynn, Stott, Duffus, even academy lads to fill a slot. Something seriously wrong behind the scenes.
  5. If Boro have been monitoring, it would be great if they give Ripley a chance in one of the remaining Prem games. Especially if they get relegated with a couple of games to spare.
  6. Any players from Cov, Chesterfield, Swindon, Port Vale that you would like to pillage for a potential bargain price? Swindons squad was pretty decent so could be a few from there.
  7. I loved the away day in Wrexham when Carlo made it 3-3 in front of the Oldham fans. Great bounce!
  8. I'm assuming Bolton haven't done a Mark Allott and given permission for Taylor to play on Saturday? Do we play someone else at LWB or change the system? Will it be Morais down the right for them?
  9. If Hunt is still out I'd play Wilson LB and Law RB. With goals so hard to come by, I think it's essential to have a set piece specialist on the pitch. We had a great position for a FK yesterday. Law on the pitch could be the difference maker, like in Shez's first game.
  10. Headline prediction: Ripley's Believe it or not!
  11. Would like to have seen McKay, Ladapo even Winchester remain and have Shez slot them in his reenergised team. Think sending McKay back in the window without having a replacement lined up has left us lacking options up top.
  12. Andy Mitten is a big United fan but good football journo who covers all sorts of quirky stories and travels round the world writing for various print. I was surprised at the level of Mrs Nevilles support and how she still considers herself an Oldham fan. Should merge her husbands bank account with Scholes and pay him back for making her take the whole family to Spain with 2 weeks notice.
  13. ..she loves Chaddy https://audioboom.com/posts/5562934-uws-podcast-214-emma-gary-neville-and-a-bit-of-ull
  14. It was just a couple of chancers on the blag for a free feed and some club shop tat
  15. So Scholes is sensitive to a slightly embellished news story. Next time he's talking up Salford, he should remember not to drag Oldham's name into it. 250 away fans at Stockport was it?
  16. Wonder if Ladapo missed that sitter v Port Vale knowing that he'd be off to a relegation rival days later. That, along with his two winners for Shrews, has created a 6 point gap between us & them.
  17. Hopefully it was a free transfer but with a good sell on fee in case Winch moves on for decent dosh.
  18. Sheridan heavily linked with the Northampton job
  19. Ladapo and Burgess have the physical attributes to be good in their positions but mentally they've been pretty poor whilst here. The miss v Port Vale by Ladapo was woeful. Burgess lucky to have played alongside Clarke. Gave away penaltys at the start of the season. And his performance and passing v Southend (h) was one of the worst by a defender I've seen in a while.
  20. Why is Wilson so often overlooked? Wasn't even on the bench last night. Good pro, was regular captain at Colchester so can help Clarke organise. Would've been good at CB or RB last night (Dummigan can play LB if Dunne or Reckord not fancied). Wilson has experience and is pretty consistent. Played in our cup wins v Wigan & Fleetwood and scored v Blackburn recently. Played in the league win at Gillingham as well. Should be given a run to help steady the ship in my opinion.
  21. Good to hear. I bet Robinson would like to have attended also. Shame they went down to 10 as would've been better to view their full 11 game plan for the full 90.
  22. Surprised it wasn't cancelled again so Robinson could go and watch Lincoln v Wrexham. Would have been a more productive use of his time.
  23. We haven't won at home on a Saturday in the league since April 23 That will change THIS Saturday. Get yourselves to BP and say "I was there when Billy McKay scored his first Latics league goal and it was the winner"
  24. Dunne runs back away from the ball on the first, misjudged the flight. If he holds his position then Streete doesn't score. Poor anticipation on the second as well. And Burgess is slow to react and block the follow up. Should be getting in the scorers face instead of hanging back and blocking Ripleys view. Encouraging feedback from the general play though in recent games against decent opponents. Plenty of reason for optimism.
