  1. Someone posted this, don't know how accurate it is: https://salarysport.com/football/national-league/oldham-athletic/ .
  2. I was miffed a few weeks ago when Melon was asked what he needed to do to get them playing with more urgency and consistency..... He said: "I don't know" Which got me worried; of all things, why would you say that? He needs to be looked in the eye and asked if he has any real ideas now and if not given the Irishman's farewell. If he does have a plan, give him till Christmas and we shall see. What happened to 1 year rolling contracts? We can't keep paying the buggers off.
  3. Wish the shits would get some money on Oldham
  4. Just think were we would have been if we had binned Unsworth earlier. Not having the pots aimed at Sutton, one of ours, good attitude, out of position and the youngest on the pitch by a mile. there are regularly 7 players who should catch it before him. Players with hundreds of league games behind them.......yet regularly shovelling shit from one bucket to another. Imagine trying to make your mark in these teams over the past three seasons. .
  5. Yep, we come back to this: Alex Reid said Unsworth was always at them to get the ball down and play. Mellon says he is always calling for more football.....and yet, at our worst, our fallback tactic is kick and head it. Mystery. .
  6. We certainly got an identity; Jekyll and Hyde. : -(
  7. Yes, I think so as well. I always did think it would be a 5 year job at this level. Sad to say it though. Still we have a club and hope for the best and fear of the worst. I will carry on supporting it, come to far to dip out now
  8. Yep. Grown up professionals bantering with punters on social media is bizarre. Whatever message they send out to the prats will not be received well by the sensible majority. The prats will either not read it or not understand it. .
  9. Lost first quarter of the last match - asked for a refund but they refused and said they were " happy to see that you've got access to the stream" PS - they can stick it.... .
  10. Chesterfield commentators just said a similar thing
  11. Commentary from Chesterfield here: https://streaming.radio.co/s47db4a4f3/listen
  12. Thanks, I will be sorry to miss that. I remember Chris Ogden as a fellow apprentice at Avro's, though he left fairly sharpish to concentrate on his football, I think. His father Fred, also played for Oldham in goal, in the 1950's. He did a lot of local coaching and was the kind of man who always treated players the same, talented or not. I remember him with great affection, as one of the duffers. .
  13. Yes, Roy has just perked up his mate has lost his voice.
  14. Paying twice not to see the match, real fan, respect.
  15. Yes good, apart form thinking we had a player called "Fun dupp" They called it a fair draw. .
  16. The usual question - has anyone located a radio commentary?
  17. Fill the Chaddy end to capacity with Chesterfield fans - with luck our players may think it's an away game
  18. Unsworth got 12 months in the job and that's the absolute minimum for any manger at any club, unless he rogers the Chairman's cat. Don't blame Mellon for keeping schtum, he knows how the usual crap comes across, lets hope he saves his voice for the players. The idea that Frank could, or should, keep paying off managers off like a cheap rent Abramovich, is crackers. I think we have to hope for the best and fear the worst, situation normal (AFU). .
  19. Did anyone see Fondop's "rowing" celebration? Out of shot on the telly picture. Great if the players sort something out for Saturday.. ...If we score that is
  20. I think the moaning bloke on the commentary said about 1700 ish. In Micky we trust. Have to because as sure as shit Uncle Frank is not going to dip into his pocket forever. ,
  21. Good player, strong as well. There was a lot of tut-tutting at the time about his choice of bride; her interrupted education etc, etc. His reported comment: She does not need any education as long as she gets my tea on the table. So fair to say, old school rather than woke. .
