We have always heard the promise before the elections and the bitter disappointment after they are voted in. I expect the same this year..

Not interested in a rebate any money earmarked for that should be spent on marketing this properly, the marketing has been lacking at the club since the days of Sean Jarvis. Also they should be offering the 5 games for £1 for the kids.

all fans??? you mean apart from season ticket holders!!!! not a terrible idea but whichever tool decides to put these bizarre 'announcement' headlines on the website, shouldn't the club use there salary to offset the cost...

I think it will stay cryptic it well tell us all to get to BP on Saturday because if we don't win we will be in the relegation zone...

The team has gone into a serious decline since Liverpool.

The loss to chesterfield was a massive kick in the teeth,corney probably is still having nightmares about the revenue that went down the bog after that loss.

The team is carrying individuals going thru the motions,the team is containing platers like mvoto who should have a red cross instead of a number,an accident waiting to happen everytime he touches the ball.

The manager is tactically disasterous.

I could go on,however...

We are going to be in a fight for survival this season,that much is obvious.

At the end of the season id get rid of PD,sorry,ive seen enough to realise we are going to nowhere under him.

His tactics,and substituions a times are shocking.

Yes gotta agree because mourinho is free in the summer and i believe redknapp might be on the look out....

get real...

bottom half league 2 crowds

bottom half league 2 budget

Win our games in hand and we are top half league one...

TEMP DROPPING LIKE A STONE IN WAKEFIELD

Congratulations on your win. I hope you go on to have as much success as the last team that beat us in a JPT final....

One of the most mentally weak players I've ever seen, why does he never take the shot on, why does always make a :censored:ty one yard pass to the man beside him instead of crossing?

 

Pile of :censored:.

Bollocks....

It's so simple, it's brilliant.

 

That will work for our 11,000 Old Trafford allocation in the 4th round!

Dont be silly!!!

They have no chance of beating City..

In defence of PD re the late sub.

On lplayer interview he says that Wes has had several shoulder dislocations this season and has been able to pop it back in and carry on, so I suppose he was thinking it would be the same again.

 

Can't Wes wear some kind of strapping to help keep his shoulder in place.

I was sat near the bench and they got the nod from the physio almost immediately after he went up the tunnel that he wouldn't be returning. They should have had a sub ready and messed around for another couple of minutes, no saying the goal wouldn't have happened anyway considering we spent the rest of the first half chasing shadows but it certainly didn't help.

Despite the disappointment of losing, the performance was a big improvement on previous home games.

Bad mistake for the goal - players should know to play to the whistle rather than assume an offside decsion will be made. Brighton had one chance and they took it - we had a couple but don't have the natural goalscoring ability to convert the chances into goals and results.

I still don't think we're in danger of being sucked into the relegation fight but the longer we go without scoring, the more desperate our position could be.

Brighton one chance?? They hit the bar in the 1st half and also at least two other chances just wide of the goal, we huffed and puffed and cannot fault the effort but they always looked likelier to score and we are toothless. Relegation dogfight and they game against Tranmere could now be really important.

I dont know if its been mentioned on here but ive heard that we have been offered Kaskenmoor school site when/if they move elsewhere.

 

i dont know if plans for the school to move are in the pipeline- anybody else?

 

we have not accepted it as yet

They wanted to merge it with south chadderton and it become a academy not sure if this is still on with the stop on the BSF Project.

 

 

If it's a cost cutting exersise like you say, how much money are we going to save. All the flamin lights will be on in both stands regardless so OK you'll save on a couple of gatemen and a few stewards but you'll lose out on bar sales and the bookies. The away end will still need policing so what have you saved at the end of the day!!

 

 

If we are still at BP next season I really hope we change the home end because all this moving around is just plain silly!!

As supporters we don't know how much they save but it must be enough for them to make it worthwhile.

Agree with your last point but as the likely scenario for that would be put the away fans in the chaddy i somehow think a lot of others wont be agreeing.

Don't really get why some are getting so upset about it, i am a season ticket holder in the rochdale road end, only in there really because my kids have junior blues season tickets and that is only available there and the chaddy end. If the club were to extend that offer to the main stand i bet quite a few would move out and into the main stand. I know for certain i would.

The only thing i am puzzled about is that Simon Corney said at the forum the other week they were going to offer reduced admission for that game using the TV revenue to cover some of the costs. I know we wont get the 8000 crowd again but if we were to get 5000-6000 this would cause chaos getting into the ground with only two stands open. Have they abandoned that idea now?

Hey roboafc and other negative tossers

 

Some of you on here are pathetic get behind the players.

It’s really easy to slate players on forums have you been to any of the manager’s sessions and

made your point directly or do you just sit behind the keyboard wringing total tosh were you can hide and make indefensible

comments call yourself true supporters I don’t think so .

Just in case you hadn't realised what this site is.

Get Tarkowski in at the back for Hazell, give Abalimba a chance at Left back , send Tounkara back to the north east, get Brooke up front , send Feeney back to Northern Ireland if theres any pub teams over there that will take him, and lets get the win at Orient I think now theres no pressure on the lads coz we can finally stop kidding ourselves that we have a chance of playoffs, i dont think we are bad enough to go down, there should be no pressure now I expect results to pick up.

Tarkowski for trotman he is not fit or good enough and not ours and if we are getting rid of feeney then take Reid with him that exscuse for an effort in the last minute was gutless and pathetic he is up there with our worst signings in the last ten years.

It was after the final whistle

Makes no difference at all unless the rule has been changed recently..It's happened on a few occasions in the past.

Well Jones obviously punched Taylor (that goes without saying) so probably Jones. Am I the only one not really arsed if two of our players have a bit of a scuffle? At least it shows they care, they'll be bessies tomorrow no worries

It was handbags but right in front of the ref and he could have shown both of them red cards foolish and should have been saved for the dressing room

A share with Rochdale feels likely to me going forward... This is just a big mess... Was from the start...

 

How would people feel about such a thing ?

There was talk of a new stadium in the industrial park near newhey/milnrow and a ground share i could see no reason then and still no reason why that wouldn't be a very good idea..

Behave. I was responding to the bolded quote in post 72. Most frustrating in 25 years? Nonsense!

 

For what it's worth, I thought we played adequately and dominated.

Well use the full quote then ' in my opinion its going to be the most frustrating season watching latics in the last 25+ years.. '

If we miss out on the play offs by a couple of points I believe we will rue the games like today and exeter, i cant remember many other years were we have blown 3 goal leads and dropped points when winning and playing well on so many occasions

I'd take this every year over the frustrations of many a season over the last 25 years. Especially last season and the second half of the season before...

Last year and come to think of it most of the last 15 years were s h i t e in general not frustrating

The point i was trying to make was the amount of points dropped when dominating games this season could well cost us a chance of the play offs or looking at the table even automatic promotion, when i think we were are good enough to achieve both its not a great league and there is defiantly an opportunity to go up this year and thats what i consider frustrating.

 

I love post-match over-emotion!

Saying we played well and dominated the games was a bit strong then??

Thought we were excellent throughout the game far superior to carlisle and not for the first time i have come away from a game where we drew feeling like we lost, maybe its naivety, maybe its bad tactics, maybe its just players that are mentally not strong enough but i hope to god they sort it or in my opinion its going to be the most frustrating season watching latics in the last 25+ years..

bloody rubbish that Morais, all he does is score goals

True, but it's a fair point he made work rate he wasn't anywhere near Taylor and both him and tonks were giving the ball away far too easily, I hope we keep him but not as a replacement for Taylor.

ok i have calmed down abit today but i stand by what i said tonks body language to me said he didnt want to be there,he may have been tired but so are the others and as someone mentioned above he didnt win a header,he didnt win any headers because he didnt even jump for one everytime a ball came over he leaned back into the player behind but from what i remember he never actually jumped for one.then add to that the glorius chance he missed again! my patience is wearing thin with the lad.and dont get me started on the cm

he as a 50p head and foot never going to be a prolific goalscorer we really need to find someone for that role, shame feeney is out injured again as i think tonks needs a rest his 1st season and it looks like the amount of games is taking a toll.

if you went how can you single jones out as having a bad game he and lee had the right hand side locked tight walsall never got a single cross over from that side of the pitch until jones went off then they were flying as lee was left exposed all the time trying to mark two men..tonk was an absolute waste of a shirt wasnt interested and thats being polite..stephens and furman shocking didnt look any better than pub players

Christ.. thats a bit harsh on tonks isn't it.. ok he had is poorest game in a oldham shirt i just thought he looked tired, jaded but not interested you have to be joking..Amos and Taylor apart none of the others were on top of the game but a point away and 3 at home and we will be in the play offs.

He's got a point two strikers on the the bench and we still play trotman upfront, surely it would make more sense to put a striker on when we needed a goal

I have never managed a team but if i did and my team went one down and had strikers on the bench i would put them on before slinging a stiff at the back up front leaving us completely exposed for the 3rd time this season at the back.. i am not for one minute suggesting dickov out but he keeps saying the players are making the same mistakes then maybe he needs to take a look at himself
