One game played and it's like we've never been away,

Ask yourself why and throw in some rational reasoning, there isn't any.

It's like we've got rid of the snake but not the poison and it's taking the life out of us.

We should all be cock a hoop, instead it's the same old, same old.

I really can't believe that some supporters are calling for the manager to be sacked after one game. After one game! You need to give your heads a serious wobble. Moreover, given the investment over the summer Frank and the board would be mad to make such an asinine decision right now.

 

Some people seem to have forgotten that if you look at last season's form guide from the start of January to the end of the season, then Latics were the 3rd best side in the league.

If we're in the bottom half of the table at the end of September - then that's a different matter.

 

One game turns into two and so it continues,

We don't have the time or funding to mess up this season, he was given a free hit last season but there's no way that should be happening again this.

If it isn't working you change it fast or we'll be left floundering at the wrong end once again.

I agree, but this season is a crucial promotion push where the owner has invested heavily in players. They can’t be waiting too long for the manager to get a tune out of what is now a very decent squad . Lose or draw next week then lose at Chesterfield and there’ll be trouble 

We're all in as goes the investment side and we don't want Frank to have to be questioning the wisdom of his outstanding generosity,

If not this season when? He can't be expected to leave the cheque book open indefinitely.

So 6 points it is from our next two games or else.

Don't forget lads, no comments allowed if you didn't attend the match.

Toxic after one game but he's brought that on himself,

I keep on half forgiving the man by saying a couple of wins will paper over the cracks, imagine if they're not forthcoming?

Then what? 

Big decisions need taking fast and they weren't, if nothing changes this season after getting what he asked for, he might even struggle to get a job as a car salesman.

Season before he said

1 nil up at half time

There will be an almighty pissboil if we lose tomorrow but I actually don’t expect us to win tomorrow.

 

We will take a few months to get going.

Now why would you of all people think that?

I'm going for a winning start with 2 or 3 goals scored

Yeah it was for publicity but by the club.  I bet they pushed for it more than he did. 

 

Why the fuck would he need the publicity?

Who said anything about publicity for Scholes?

Read it again matey,

The guy was a decent midfielder for manure but was totally clueless as far as anything to do with Latics was concerned, I wouldn't pay him in washers!

In spite of the shitshow - Scholes ain't a manager. As he proved here and as he proved hereafter...

Scholes was only given the job for publicity and it was obvious from the very start, he was a lame duck,

At what point now would he ever be offered the same position? It just wouldn't happen at any level!

Every post back to DU. Couldn't just post a positive

Even Scholes would have a chance with this lot,

Surely the mighty DU can finally make his mark in the world of football?

It just gets better

Now let's get it done and no more nonsense

I couldn't care less about style of play.

 

Any style that resulted in promotion would be fine by me.

 

 

Dave can wear a crown if he gets us promoted and same here, I couldn't care less how win's are achieved, just as long as we're nicely placed at the business end of the table.

First 3 games and 3 wins would be a huge statement of intent from the manager,

Then we can take it the party's really on.

l'm sorry but if everybody doesn't stop offering all these reasonable balanced arguments l'm gona have to start some name calling or DM somebody for a punch up

Oldham massive  

Our quest goes on and one day we'll have everything in place, at that point, this kind of debate will disappear as fast as Big Dave's tactics

Of course I hope I’m wrong and I’ll be the first to hold my hands up if so 

We all hope that we're wrong but that uncertainty still lingers large in the background and isn't going away anytime soon.

Heaven forbid, it all goes tits up, I wonder if those with an opposite view will hold up theirs?

No point in arguing, we all know Nuttall is DUs first choice.

Stubbornness will be our undoing and that'll soon be brought to book if results don't follow

He's got one last shot, I do hope he takes it

Frank has already been made a Freeman of Oldham and, unlike Winston Churchill, he turned up to receive the award,

He's certainly in good company, Oh well,

No tickets available on the Southend website yet for the Oldham game even for home supporters!

We'll play ourselves and still win then

"It is one year ago tomorrow since the Latics chairman and his family were unveiled as the club's saviours, following the completion of a long-awaited takeover, which ultimately brought all aspects of club business under single ownership."

The Oldham Times

God I love this man.

Should be made a Freeman of Oldham and purely because he seeks no reward or praise for what he's done.

The Life blood of OAFC and as Big a Legend of any that have gone before.
